2Preparing the Printer

Preparing the Printer

Be sure to read your setup sheet first for setting up your printer and getting it ready for use.

1Turn on the printer.

2Install the Print Head.

3Install the ink tanks.

4Load paper.

In the following process, you will be required to perform the Print Head Alignment, and you

will need one sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper loaded in the Auto Sheet Feeder.

Caution

Be sure to remove the tapes before you turn on the printer.

Note

The tape position is subject to change.

Caution

Do not touch internal parts other than the Print Head Lock Lever.

Important

If the Top Cover is opened more than ten minutes, the Print Head Holder moves to the right side. If

this occurs, close the Top Cover, and open it again.

Notes

zThere might be some transparent or light blue ink on the inside of the bag the print head comes

in, or the inside of the protective cap - this has no effect on print quality. Be careful not to get ink

on yourself when handling these items.

zDo not reattach the protective cap once it has been removed.

Important

zEnsure that all the ink tanks are installed in the order directed by the label. The printer cannot

be used unless all the ink tanks are installed.

zOnce you have installed the ink tanks, the POWER lamp will flash green. Wait for about two

minutes until the POWER lamp displays a steady green light and the printer has stopped

making operating noises before proceeding.

Notes

zBe sure to remove the clear film from the ink tank in the exact order as shown in step 3 of your

setup sheet.

zDo not squeeze the side of ink tanks as this may cause the ink to leak out and stain your clothes

and hands.

zDo not reattach the protective cap once you have removed it.

zThe ALARM lamp on the printer still flashes orange if an ink tank is not installed properly. Open

the Top Cover and make sure that all the ink tanks are installed in the correct order directed on

the label.
