Installing Ink Cartridges
We will now install the ink cartridges. All Ricoh authorized inks are intended for single use ONLY. The ink
cartridge bay is located on the right-hand side of the printer. For US machines, new printer is shipped
with 6 Ricoh authorized ink cartridges: 1 of each color: cyan, yellow, magenta, black and 2 white. For
machines outside the US, ink will be included in the accessory box.
Remove the cartridges from the box and protective bag and gently shake a few times before installing
them into the ink bays. It is very important that the correct color ink cartridge gets installed in the correct
bay as shown below in Figure 2.6-6.
If you install a cartridge in the wrong bay the Control Panel will indicate this with a Mismatch error on the
Control Panel display, however, it can contaminate the ink delivery system.
