Replacing an Ink Cartridge

The easiest way of checking ink levels is from the control
panel:
3sec.
Full
1 Matte
black
2 Cyan
3 Magenta
* These are the cartridges used in the photographic mode. If your
printer uses the dual CMYK mode, cartridges 5-8 will contain the
same colors as cartridges 1-4.
When the red ink light is flashing (and INK LOW is displayed
on the LCD panel), the corresponding cartridge is almost out
of ink. Make sure you have a replacement cartridge. When the
light stays on and INK OUT is displayed, the cartridge is
empty. You must replace the cartridge before you can
continue printing.
See page 3 for information on selecting the correct
replacement cartridges. Before you start, make sure the printer
is turned on. Then follow these steps to replace an ink
cartridge:
1. Note the color of the cartridge whose light is on or flashing.
This is the cartridge you need to replace.
2. Press the ink compartment cover to open it.
