When you are not using a print cartridge
Whenever you remove a filled (not
empty) print cartridge from the printer,
store it in the print cartridge protector.
The cartridge protector keeps the ink
from drying out when the cartridge is not
being used. Failure to properly store
your cartridge can cause the cartridge to
malfunction.
➔ To insert a cartridge into the
cartridge protector, slide the
cartridge into the protector at a
slight angle and snap it securely
into place.
