• When you store ink bottles, close bottle caps completely and place bottles in standing position. If the ink bottles are laid down, ink may leak. • When refilling ink tanks, take sufficient care to prevent ink from spattering onto surroundings. • Ink may stain clothes or other belongings permanently. Washing may not remove ink stains. • Do not use ink bottles and ink contained therein except to refill tanks of printers specified by Canon.
Checking Ink Level Check ink level with the ink tank indicator on the front of the printer. When ink reaches the upper limit line (A), ink is full. When ink is near the lower limit line (B), ink is running low. Refill the ink tank. Note • To check the remaining ink level, visually inspect the remaining ink in the ink tank.
Ink Tips How is ink used for various purposes other than printing? Ink may be used for purposes other than printing. During initial setup, some of the ink from the bundled ink bottles is used to fill the print head's nozzles to ensure the printer is print-ready. Therefore, the page yield of the initial bundled set of ink bottles is lower than that of the subsequent sets of bottles. To keep printer's performance, Canon printer performs cleaning automatically according to its condition.
