Installing the 500 series ink cartridges

NovaJet 500 series printers use only cartridges specifically designed for the 500
series printer model. It is not compatible with cartridges designed for other
printer models. Use of other cartridges may damage the printer and/or prevent it
from printing. 500 series cartridges ship without ink and must be filled prior to
use. Be sure all cartridges and reservoirs use the same ink type; i.e., GX, VX,
GS Plus, or GO.
