Plugging in the Printer

1. Make sure that the printer is turned off. It is off when the P power button protrudes slightly from the surface of the control panel.

2. Check the label on the back of the printer to make sure the voltage required by the printer matches that of the electrical outlet you will be plugging it into. Also, make sure that you have the correct power cable for your power source.

c

^Caution: It is not possible to change the printer’s voltage. If the rated voltage and your outlet voltage do not match, contact your dealer for assistance. Do not plug in the power cord.

3. If the power cord is not attached to the printer, connect it to the AC inlet on the back of the printer.

4. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded electrical outlet.

Installing the Ink Cartridges

w

Install the included ink cartridges as follows:

c

^Caution:Use the ink cartridges packed with your printer the first time you install ink cartridges, otherwise the printer may not charge ink properly.

Note:

Do not open the ink cartridge packages until just before you install them or the ink may dry up.

1. Lower the output tray at the front of the printer; then, holding the tab on the cover, open the printer cover.

9. Close the printer cover then press the

E

load/eject button.

The printer moves the print heads and begins charging the ink delivery system.

Note:

Even if you do not press the E load/eject button, the printer moves the print heads and begins the ink charging process about 60 seconds after you install the ink cartridges.

The ink charging process takes up to 4 minutes to complete, during which time the P power light flashes and the printer produces a variety of mechanical sounds. These are normal. When the ink delivery system has been charged, the print heads return to their home position.

c

^Caution: Never turn off the printer while the P power light is flashing.

The life of a cartridge depends on the amount of text and black-and-white graphics you print (for a black cartridge) and the amount and the number of colors used in your documents (for a color cartridge).

Note:

When ink runs out, see “Replacing an Ink Cartridge” in Chapter 8.
