Caution:
Make sure the ink cartridge tabs are not under the tabs protruding from
the base of the opened ink cartridge clamps, as this could damage the
clamps.

will not work.
6. Press the ink cartridge clamps down until they lock in place.

the print head and begins charging the ink delivery system. This process
takes about two and a half minutes.

Caution:
Always press the orange ink cartridge replacement button to move the
print head. Do not move it by hand. Doing so may damage the printer.

produces a variety of mechanical sounds. These sounds are normal.
When the ink delivery system has been charged, the print head returns
to the home (far right) position and the P power light comes on.
c
Caution:
Never turn off the printer while the P power light is flashing.
