•
There may be ink around the ink supply section of ink tanks you removed. Handle ink tanks carefully during re-
placement. The ink may stain clothing.
Important
•
Do not install used ink tanks in another model of printer.
This will prevent correct ink level detection, which may damage the printer or cause other problems.
•
We recommend using up an Ink Tank in the course of printing within six months after breaking the seal. Printing
quality may be affected if you use older ink tanks.
•
Do not leave the printer without ink tanks installed for extended periods (a month or more). Residual ink may
become clogged inside the printer and affect printing quality.
