Replacing Ink Cartridges

If an ink cartridge is low or expended, you see a message on
the CX8400 Series LCD display screen. If a cartridge is
expended, you must replace it to be able to print. If a cartridge
is low, you can continue printing until a cartridge needs
replacement.
Note:
You cannot print or copy when an ink cartridge is expended even if
the other cartridges are not expended. Replace any expended
cartridges before printing or copying.
When an installed ink cartridge is more than six months old, you may
need to replace it if your printouts do not look their best, even after
cleaning and aligning the print head.
