Product Usage Instructions

Handling Ink Bottles

The ink for this printer must be handled carefully. Ink may
splatter when the ink tanks are being filled or refilled with ink.
If ink gets on your clothes or belongings, it may not come off.

Filling the Ink Tanks

  1. Make sure that the color of the ink tank matches the ink color
    that you want to fill.

  2. Insert the ink bottle into the filling port for the correct
    color.

  3. Ink will start pouring and the flow will stop automatically
    when the ink reaches the upper line of the tank.

  4. If the ink does not start flowing into the tank, remove the ink
    bottle and reinsert it. Do not remove and reinsert the ink bottle
    when the ink has reached the upper line to avoid leaks or damage to
    the printer.

  5. The remaining ink in the bottle can be used later, but do not
    leave the ink bottle inserted for an extended period as it may
    cause damage or leaks.

  6. When the ink reaches the upper line of the tank, pull out the
    bottle.

Charging Ink

After filling the ink tanks, follow these steps to charge the
ink:

  1. Confirm that the tanks are filled with ink.

  2. Hold down the button for 5 seconds to start charging ink.

  3. Charging ink takes about 7 minutes.

  4. The printer’s LED status will indicate the charging
    process:

    • Off: Ink charging is complete.
    • Flashing: Ink charging is in progress.
    • On: Ink charging is complete, but the print head nozzles need
      to be checked.

Nozzle Check

After the ink charging is complete, a nozzle check pattern will
be printed. Check the printed pattern to see if the print head
nozzles are clogged.

Paper Loading

Load A4 size plain paper at the center of the paper support with
the printable side facing up.
