Replacing Ink Cartridges (continued)
  5  Hold the cartridge with the arrow mark pointing 
toward the printer. Then insert the cartridge into the 
slot. Don’t force it.
Note: If you can’t insert the cartridge smoothly,  
you may have the wrong cartridge. Check the 
package and product code. If the   ink light remains  
on after installing the cartridge, try removing and 
then reinserting it. 
  6  Return the ink lever to its locked position.
 
 
  7  If you’re using 110 ml cartridges, close the ink 
compartment cover. If you’re using 220 ml 
cartridges, you’ll have to leave the cover open.
