Preserving the print cartridges

•

Keep a new cartridge in its packaging until you are ready to install it.

•

Do not remove a cartridge from the printer except to replace, clean, or store it in an airtight container. The
cartridges do not print correctly if left exposed for an extended period of time.

•

Keep the photo cartridge in its own storage unit when not in use.
