Reseat Cleaner
In this situation, remove the Maintenance Cartridge and install it again.
Missing
The Maintenance Cartridge has not been installed or is installed incorrectly. The printer will not print until the
Maintenance Cartridge has been installed correctly.
Not replaced with Printhead
A new Printhead has been installed without installing a new Maintenance Cartridge that came with it. Make
sure a new Maintenance Cartridge is installed every time you replace a Printhead.
If a Maintenance Cartridge needs to be removed or reseated, you must first start the Printhead Replacement
process. Open the Window when prompted to do so by the front panel. If the front panel shows the
Printheads with no Printhead blinking, you do not need to touch the Printheads. Just close the window again,
and the printer will proceed to Maintenance Cartridge replacement.
