Cautions on using ink cartridges ❏ Do not touch the IC chip on the cartridge. Doing so may cause operating/printing malfunction. ❏ This product uses ink cartridges equipped with an IC chip that monitors the amount of ink used by each cartridge. Cartridges are usable even if they are removed and reinstalled. However, if an ink cartridge in which little amount of ink remains is removed and reinstalled, it may not be usable. Some ink is consumed each time cartridges are installed because the product automatically checks their reliability. ❏ Install all ink cartridges. Printing is not possible even if only one ink cartridge is missing. ❏ Since ink cartridges are designed to stop the operation before ink runs out completely to maintain the quality of the print head, some ink remains in the used ink cartridge. ❏ All the ink colors are consumed also for the maintenance operations when an ink cartridge is replaced and for print head cleaning. ❏ Even for monochrome printing, all the ink colors are used in an operation designed to maintain the printing and print head quality. ❏ Use of an old ink cartridge may result in reduced print quality. Use it up within six months after opening the package. The usage period for ink cartridges is printed on the packaging of individual ink cartridges. 62
