hand.
❏ When an ink cartridge is empty, you cannot continue printing
even if the other cartridges still contain ink.

obtained a replacement. Otherwise the ink remaining in the print
head nozzles may dry out.

of ink used from the cartridge. Even if a cartridge is removed and
then inserted again, all of its ink can be used. However, some
ink is consumed each time the cartridge is inserted because the
