Installing Ink
Use the ink cartridges that came with your printer for initial ink charging.
During the initial installation process, it is normal for up to one-third of the
ink in each cartridge to be used. The cartridges shipped with your printer are
provided mainly to charge the ink system.
1. Press the P Power button to turn on the printer. In a moment,
INSTALL INK CARTRIDGES appears on the LCD display.
2. Press both ink compartment covers to open them. Make sure the ink
levers are in the raised (released) position.
3. Remove each ink cartridge from its package and gently shake the
cartridge.
Note: The default black
ink cartridge is Photo
Black. If you prefer to use
Matte Black (sold
separately; see
page 128), you can install
the Matte Black cartridge
immediately instead of
installing the supplied
Photo Black cartridge.
Note: You need to be
present during the ink
installation process. Do
not leave the printer
unattended.
