When installing the ink tank, be sure to shake it slowly 7 to 8 times before unpacking it. Otherwise, the ink ingredients may precipitate and degrade the print

quality.

To prevent foreign matter from entering the ink port, installed the unpacked ink tank in the printer immediately.

2. Handling the Ink Tank

To prevent foreign matter from entering the ink flow path and causing ink suction and printing problems, never touch the ink port and contacts of the ink tank.

When you press down the ink tank lock lever, the needle enters the ink port, allowing ink to flow between the printer and ink tank.

Do not raise or lower the ink tank lock lever except when replacing the ink tank.
