5-1. Replacing Consumables
This section describes how to replace the Ink Cartridge, Wiper Cleaner, Waste Ink Cartridge, and
Platen Sheet.
5-1-1. Replacing an Ink Cartridge
The ink indicator on the Display blinks when the Ink Cartridge is getting low. Prepare the new Ink
Cartridge, and replace it when "EMPTY XXXX (color)" is displayed.
<Note>
Use the Ink Cartridges described in "1-3-5. Consumable Requirements".
Be careful not to get ink on your hands or clothing.
Do not replace cartridges while printing or head cleaning; it may cause damage on your printer.
Do not breakup Ink Cartridges.
To keep the best print result, your printer stops printing and request the new Ink Cartridge when the ink
is less than 30 cc (+/- 10 cc). If you see the message "EMPTY XXXX (color)", replace the Ink Cartridge.
(1) Remove the new Ink Cartridge from its packing.
(2) Carefully pull out the used Ink Cartridge from your printer.
<Note>
Leave the used Ink Cartridge installed until just before the replacement. Leaving your printer with
no Ink Cartridge installed may cause ink leakage.
Do not put your finger to the Ink Cartridge Slot; otherwise the needle attached to it may injure you.
