Replacing a FINE Cartridge

When remaining ink cautions or errors occur, the error message will appear on the LCD to inform you of the
error. In this state, the printer cannot print or scan. Check the error message and take appropriate action.
When Error Occurred
Replacing Procedure
When you need to replace a FINE cartridge, follow the procedure below.
Important
• Do not touch the electrical contacts (A) or print head nozzle (B) on a FINE cartridge. The printer may
not print properly if you touch them.
• If you remove a FINE cartridge, replace it immediately. Do not leave the printer with the FINE
cartridge removed.
• Use a new FINE cartridge for replacement. Installing a used FINE cartridge may cause the nozzles to
clog.
Furthermore, with such a FINE cartridge, the printer will not be able to inform you when to replace the
FINE cartridge properly.
Note
• For Windows, if a FINE cartridge runs out of ink, you can print with either color or black FINE
cartridge, in whichever ink remains, only for a while.
For information on how to configure this setting, see below.
Setting the Ink to be Used
• Color ink may be consumed even when printing a black-and-white document or when black-and-
white printing is specified.
Both color ink and black ink are also consumed in the standard cleaning and deep cleaning of the
print head, which may be necessary to maintain the performance of the printer. When ink runs out,
replace the FINE cartridge immediately with a new one.
Ink Tips
1. Check that printer is turned on.
