Remove the ink tank whose lamp is flashing
fast.
(1) Push the tab and remove the ink tank.
Important
Handle ink tanks carefully to avoid staining clothing
or the surrounding area.
Discard empty ink tanks according to the local laws
and regulations regarding disposal of consumables.

Do not remove more than one ink tank at a time. Be
sure to replace ink tanks one by one when
replacing more than one ink tank.

"Getting the Ink Level Information" on page 46.

Prepare the replacement tank.
(1) Remove the new ink tank from its packaging,
then pull the orange tape in the direction of the
arrow (A) so that the protective film does not
remain on the air hole (B). Then remove the
film completely (C).
Important
Make sure that all the orange tape has been peeled off
along the perforation. If part of the orange tape is
remaining, ink may leak out when you remove the
protective cap and may not eject properly when
printing.
(2) Remove the orange protective cap from the
bottom of the ink tank.
Discard the cap once it is removed.
Important
Be sure to remove the clear film from the ink tank in
the exact order shown in step 5-(1), as failure to
follow this step may cause the ink to leak and stain
your clothes and hands.
Do not squeeze the side of ink tanks as this may
cause the ink to leak out and stain your clothes and
hands.
Do not re-attach the protective cap once you have
removed it. Discard it according to the local laws
and regulations regarding disposal of consumables.
Do not touch the open ink port once the protective
cap is removed, as this may prevent the ink from
being ejected properly.
Be careful not to stain your clothes and hands with
ink on the removed protective cap.
