Replacing the Ink Cartridge/Printhead

Pitney Bowes recommends that you only use genuine replacement ink
cartridges that are available from Pitney Bowes.
If alternative cartridges or refills are obtained, the ink used must be
approved by your Postal Authority.
Ink usage will vary, depending on whether you routinely print ads,
how many pieces of mail you print a day and other factors. We
recommend that you keep a spare ink cartridge on hand at all times.
The machine display tells you when the ink supply is low or
exhausted:
"Low Ink"
Replace the ink cartridge soon. You can print about another 300
impressions or leave the system running for six days without printing.
If you don't have a replacement cartridge on hand, you should order
one now. See Chapter 9, Supplies and Options for instructions.
CAUTION: Replace the ink cartridge as soon as you
see the "Low Ink" alert.
"Ink Out"
Replace the ink cartridge immediately. The ink supply has finished;
you won't be able to print.
1. If you have received an ink warning, skip to step 2. Alternatively
