Replacing an Ink Cartridge

When your ink levels are low, Status Monitor 3 displays a message on your screen.
When you see the message, it's a good time to make sure you have a new cartridge
or replace it right away.
When an ink cartridge is empty, Status Monitor 3 displays another message and
you must replace the cartridge to resume printing.
You may also need to replace an ink cartridge if it's more than six months old and
your printouts don't look as good as they used to. If print quality doesn't improve
after cleaning and aligning the print head, you can replace one or both cartridges.
You cannot print if either ink cartridge is empty or not installed. Leave
the empty cartridge installed in the printer until you have obtained a
replacement. Otherwise the ink remaining in the print head nozzles
may dry out.
