Ink

The machine uses individual Black, Yellow, Cyan and Magenta ink
cartridges that are separate from the print head assembly.

Service Life of Ink
Cartridge

The first time you install the ink cartridges the machine will use extra
ink to fill the ink delivery tubes.

This is a one-time process that enables high quality printing.
Afterward, replacement ink cartridges will print the specified
number of pages.

Replacement Ink Cartridges

Standard Black - Approximately 500 pages at 5% coverage

High Yield Black - Approximately 900 pages at 5% coverage

Yellow, Cyan and Magenta - Approximately 400 pages at 5%
coverage
The above figures are based upon the following assumptions:

„

Continuous printing at a resolution of 600

× 600 dpi in normal

mode after installing new ink cartridge;

„

The printing frequency;

„

The number of pages printed;

„

Periodic, automatic, print head assembly cleaning (Your
machine will clean the print head assembly periodically. This
process will use a small amount of ink); and,

„

Ink remaining in cartridge identified as ‘empty’ (It is necessary to
leave a small amount of ink in the ink cartridge to prevent air
from drying out and damaging the print head assembly).
