Part 3: Operating Instructions

1.3.3 Turning on the printer

Before turning on the printer, first turn on the computer and other peripheral
equipment (if any). Make sure the AC power cord is plugged in properly, and then
press the POWER button to turn on the printer. When the printer is turned on, it runs
the initializing operations and the carriage moves to the cartridge replacement
position (printer center). At this time, the indicator blinks in green to indicate that the
printer is ready for the BJ cartridge installation.

1.3.4 Installing the BJ cartridge

Four types of cartridges can be installed in the printer: Black BJ Cartridges (BC-23
and BC-20 [reference]), Color BJ Cartridge (BC-21e), and Photo BJ Cartridge (BC-22e
Photo).
See " Part 2: 1.4 Dual Cartridge System"
which can be installed on both sides of the carriage.

CAUTION
Figure 3-5 Removing the BJ Cartridge Protectors
Do not reuse the protective head cap and tape. Any foreign substance on
the cap or tape could mix with the ink and cause printer trouble.
Carefully peel off the protective tape on the printer head without touching
the head. If the head is damaged or if foreign substances stick to the
head, printing errors could occur.
Do not shake the BJ cartridge after removing the head cap and protective
tape. Shaking the cartridge will cause the ink to splatter.
