6. Lower the new ink cartridge into its holder with the label
facing up and toward the back of the printer.
7. Press down the ink cartridge clamp until it locks in place,
but don't press down on the cartridge itself.
8. If you need to replace the other ink cartridge, repeat steps 3
through 7 before continuing with step 9.
9. Press the E load/eject button again and close the printer
cover. The printer moves the print head and begins
charging the ink delivery system.
The Ppower light flashes and the printer makes noise.
Charging takes about 30 seconds. When it's finished, the
Ppower light stops flashing and stays on.
Never turn off the printer while the Ppower light is
flashing, unless the printer hasn't moved or made noise
for more than 5 minutes.
Cleaning the Print Head
If your printed image is unexpectedly light or faint, or dots are
missing from the image, you may need to clean the print head.
This unclogs the nozzles so they can deliver ink properly.
Cleaning the print head uses ink, so clean it only if print
quality declines. You can clean the print head in either of the
following ways:
using the Head Cleaning utility (when the printer is
connected to a local port, not over a network), as described
on page 9
using the printer's control panel buttons, as described on
page 10
When you don't turn on your printer for a long time, the
print quality can decline. It's a good idea to turn on your
printer at least once a month to maintain good print
quality.
If any paper you buy comes with a cleaning sheet, don't
use the cleaning sheet with your printer; it may jam
inside the printer.
Using the Head Cleaning Utility
Follow these steps to run the Head Cleaning utility
(recommended method):
1. Make sure the printer is turned on but not printing, and
both the B black and A color ink out lights are off. (If an
ink out light is flashing, replace the ink cartridge before
continuing.)
2. If you have an application running, access the printer
settings dialog box.

Never turn off the printer while the Ppower light is

for more than 5 minutes.
6. When the Ppower light stops flashing, run a nozzle check
to confirm the print head nozzles are clean and reset the
cleaning cycle.
