Install Ink Cartridges
Once your software is installed, you see the Setup Utility that
walks you through installing ink cartridges.
Before handling your ink cartridges, be sure to read and follow
these ink cartridge precautions:
Install both ink cartridges, and leave them installed for all
types of printing, or the printer won’t work.
Remove the yellow tape seal from the top of the ink
cartridges or you’ll permanently damage them. Don’t
remove the clear seals on the bottom or ink will leak out.
The ink cartridges packed with your printer are for initial
installation only.
Don’t move the ink cartridge holders by hand or you’ll
damage the printer.
Don’t open an ink cartridge clamp to remove a cartridge
except to replace it with a new one. Once you remove a
cartridge, you can’t reuse it, even if it contains ink.
Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do
not drink the ink. If ink gets on your skin, wash the area
thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets in your eyes,
flush them immediately with water.
