Ink cartridge levels
The level of ink remaining in a cartridge is an estimate only. When a cartridge is inserted into in a printer
for the first time, the printer assumes that it is 100% full. As the ink is used, the printer estimates the
percentage of ink remaining in the cartridge. If a used cartridge is placed into a different printer for the first
time, it will be shown as 100% full. The ink level should be used as a guide only and not an exact level of
remaining ink. Heat and humidity can also affect the accuracy of ink level estimates.
Note: If the SD card is removed by a qualified technician, all history of ink cartridge levels and voltage
boost values will be lost.
Storage

Leave cartridge in printer for short periods of time, 1 day or less.
l
Next time that the printer is used, printhead may have to be cleaned and purged.
l
Long-term Storage (more than 2 days or more than 1 day in a hot and dry environment)
Place the plastic nozzle cover on the cartridge. Place cartridges in a sealable plastic container with
l
a damp sponge or towel to maintain humidity and prevent printhead from drying out.
When cartridges are ready to be used again, printhead will need to be cleaned.
l
Disposal
Cartridges may be disposed of in a normal manner.
In case of an ink spill, use soap and water to clean up any problem areas.
Abrasive soap usually removes ink off of hands.
Caution: Ink in cartridge may be harmful if swallowed. Keep new and used
cartridges out of reach of children. Discard empty cartridges immediately.
