Knowing When To Replace A FINE Cartridge
It is important to identify the empty Cartridge using the LCD/LED and replace it.
Note
<BLACK INK LOW> or <COLOR INK LOW> appears on the LCD (MP170) / <E> and <4>
appear alternately on the LED (MP150) when ink becomes empty during printing.
Printing will resume as soon as the FINE Cartridge is replaced and the Scanning Unit is closed.
Press [Stop/Reset] to cancel the current print job.
Press [OK] (MP170) / [Black] or [Color] (MP150) to resume printing with an empty FINE
Cartridge. When printing is finished, replace the FINE Cartridge immediately. If you continue
printing with an empty FINE Cartridge, it will be a cause of trouble.
* Be sure to press [OK] (MP170) / [Black] or [Color] (MP150) with all the FINE Cartridges
installed. Printing does not resume if any of the FINE Cartridges are left uninstalled.
* If you continue to print with an empty FINE Cartridge, the ink level will not be detected
correctly.
With MP170, you can check the current ink level by pressing [COPY], [SCAN] or [MEMORY
CARD]. The LCD will display the ink level for a few seconds.
Ex:
COPY MODE

If an error message is displayed on the LCD/LED, a FINE Cartridge error has occurred and
the machine cannot continue to print. See "An Error Message Is Displayed On The LCD/LED"
on page 87.
