CARTRIDGE INSTALLATION - New Printer

Getting Started with Refillable Cartridges:

  1. Remove the clear plug, located under the Do Not Remove label.
  2. Remove cleaning/storage solution by gently shaking the cart upside down into a trashcan or sink, if applicable. If cart is empty, proceed to Step #3.
  3. Fill the cartridge to around 95% full (leave a small space at the top).
  4. Remove the colored plug from the front edge of the cart, and place it in the hole used to fill the ink.
  5. Discard the clear plug; Leave the front edge hole open to allow the cartridge to breathe during the printing process.
  6. Install each cartridge into the correct slot in order from left to right. Watch the status screen after each cart is installed, ensuring that the red “X” disappears after engagement.
  7. Click Proceed to initialize the printer. If you receive a warning that the ink is not genuine OEM ink, click Proceed, or Continue.

NOTES
*The chips will reset each time when removed, so be sure to add ink back to the “full” level before reinserting into the printer.

*If you print every single day, you will want to check the ink levels once a week. If you print less frequently, you can get away with checking every two to three weeks.

*DO NOT RELY ON THE INK LEVELS DISPLAYED ON THE SCREEN!
