4.1.2 Tools
Table 4-1 lists the tools recommended for servicin
the printer. Use
onl
tools that meet these specifications.
CAUTION
If an ink cartridge is removed and needs to be
installed again, be sure to replace it with a new ink
cartridge for the following reasons:
Once an ink cartrid
e is removed, air enters the
cartrid
e and creates bubbles. These bubbles clo
the ink path and cause printin
problems.
If the same ink cartrid
e is reused, the printer will not
be able to keep track of actual ink consumption, since
the ink consumption counter will be cleared.
Do not remove the ink cartridges when you ship the
printer.
Never remove the ink cartridges, unless this manual
specifically tells you to do so.
Use only recommended tools for disassembling,
assembling, and adjusting the printer.
Apply lubricants and adhesives only as specified.
(See Chapter 6 for details.)
Make all required adjustments after taking apart the
printer. (See Chapter 5 for details.)
