Install the Ink Tanks

1
Open the ink tank cover.
4
Open the pouch and remove the ink tank.
• Never touch the ink holes (a)
or metal contacts (b). Touching
these parts may cause stains,
damage the ink tank, and
affect print quality.
• Avoid dropping the ink tank after
removing it from the pouch. Otherwise,
ink may leak and cause stains.
• Do not remove ink tanks to shake them
after they have been installed. Doing so
may cause ink to spill.
7
Repeat steps 2 to 6 to install each of the
ink tanks.
Close the ink tank cover.
Install the eight ink tanks.
2
While pressing the stopper of the ink tank
lock lever inwards, open the ink tank lock
lever upwards.
5
Insert the ink tank into the holder oriented
as shown, with the ink holes down.

• If the ink tank does not fit in the holder,
make sure the color of the ink tank lock
lever matches the color of the ink tank,
and check the orientation of the ink
tank.
After all the ink tanks have been installed,
the printer automatically starts charging
the system with ink. Charging the system
with ink for the first time takes about
20 minutes. Install the software and
electronic manuals on your computer
while charging the system with ink. If
you install the software and electronic
manuals later, wait until the system is
charged with ink, and then proceed to
"Load Paper to Adjust the Printheads" on
page 11.

3
Shake each ink tank gently 7 to 8 times
before opening its pouch.
• Failure to shake the ink tanks may
result in reduced print quality because
ink ingredients have settled on the
bottom of the tank.
6
Close the ink tank lock lever until it clicks
into place. Make sure the ink lamp lights
red.
• If the ink lamp is not lit, repeat steps 2,
5, and 6.
During printer installation, ink fills the
system between the ink tanks and
MEMO
printheads. The ink level quickly falls to
80% (40% for starter ink tanks), this is
normal.
