Procedure (Installing the Printhead):

This procedure assumes that you are installing a Printhead Cartridge into a printer that does NOT have a
Printhead Cartridge installed. If your printer already has a Printhead Cartridge installed, and you wish to
replace the Printhead Cartridge; please refer to the section titled
1. Plug in the printer. Turn the printer's Main Power Switch ON; then press the control panel's
ON/OFF button. Wait about 45 seconds for the print engine to power-up (ON/OFF button will
illuminate).
2. Open the Top Cover.
3. If the Printhead Latch [2] is closed; press the "Printhead
Latch Release" button [1]; as shown.
Use a non-metallic item (example: plastic pen) to reach
through the hole and lightly press the button.
The printer will run a routine and then the Printhead Latch
[2] will release so it can be opened.
WARNING! If the printhead latch fails to release do not
force the latch open. Severe damage will result. Contact
technical support.
Tip: You can perform this same function from your
computer by clicking "Printhead Release" from the
"Services" tab of the "M Series Driver" properties, or the
"User Interface" screen of the M Series "Toolbox" utility.
4. Open the Printhead Latch all the way to fully retract the
Ink Couplings [3].
WARNING! Do not force the latch open or severe damage will
result. Use the "Printhead Latch Release" button.
5. Be sure that all protective packaging materials are removed from
the Ink Coupling areas.
