Replacing the ink
cartridge
Replace the ink cartridge when:
• printed characters appear light or uneven
• missing characters are evident
• a print test reveals inconsistent character quality
• cleaning has not improved the overall print quality
Procedures for changing the ink cartridge, whether it is in the front
position or rear position, are the same; with the exception of how you
access the printer.
1. Lift up the top access cover (rear position) or remove the output tray
and lift the printer access cover (front position).
2. Holding the printer carrier as shown, press and hold the release tab
on the bottom of the printer carrier and rotate the printer carrier to
the left until it locks into position.
IMPORTANT: Dispose the empty ink cartridge in accordance with all
federal, state and local laws.
3. Lift the ink cartridge out from the printer carrier.
4. Remove the tab from the new ink cartridge.
5. Slightly angle a new ink cartridge in the print carrier and snap it into
place.
