6.2 MaintenanceMaintaining Print CartridgesTo get the maximum benefit from your print cartridges:• Do not remove a print cartridge from its packaging until you areready to install it.• Do not refill the print cartridges. The warranty does not coverdamage caused by using refilled cartridges.• Store the print cartridges in the same environment as yourproduct.• Do not remove a print cartridge from the product except toreplace, or clean. Immediately replace the print cartridge or storein the storage unit. The print cartridge will not print correctly ifremoved from the product and left exposed for an extendedperiod of time.• Do not swap the colour cartridge with the black cartridge. Thecolour cartridge should be installed in the left carrier and theblack cartridge in the right carrier.• If you have an opened ink cartridge you are not currently usingand do not have an available print cartridge storage unit, store itin an airtight plastic bag. Do not leave it exposed to air for anextended period; this promotes drying out and clogging of theprint nozzles.NOTE: If any (or both) cartridge(s) is not installed in the product, thedisplay alerts you with the message “CHECK xxxx CARTRIDGE”(where xxxx designates the empty cartridge). Install the cartridge(s)to print properly.However, if you force to print out, your product can function evenwhen any (or both) cartridge runs out of ink or is not installed. Forexample, if a fax is received when any cartridge is not installed, thedisplay alerts with the message “CHECK xxxx CARTRIDGE” andtoggles “TO FAX PRINT PRESS ENTER.” If you press Enter, the productprints out the received fax with one (or no) cartridge installed. Theprint quality cannot be normal and you may see a white paper.
