❏ To avoid getting dirt on the ink supply port, store
the removed ink cartridge properly. The ink supply
port has a valve in it so it does not need to be capped.
❏ Removed ink cartridges may have ink around the
ink supply port, so be careful not to get any ink on
the surrounding area when removing the
cartridges.
❏ To maintain the quality of the print head, this
printer stops printing before ink cartridges are
completely expended, and ink remains in the used
cartridge.
❏ Although the ink cartridges may contain recycled
materials, this does not affect printer function or
performance.
❏ Do not dismantle or remodel ink cartridges. You
may not be able to print properly.
❏ Do not drop or knock ink cartridges against hard
objects; otherwise, the ink may leak.
