service agreements.
Changing print cartridges
When a print cartridge approaches the end of useful life, the control panel displays a message
recommending that you order a replacement. The printer can continue to print using the current print
cartridge until the control panel displays a message instructing you to replace the cartridge.
The printer uses four colors and has a different print cartridge for each color: black (K), cyan (C), magenta
(M), and yellow (Y).
Replace a print cartridge when the printer control panel displays a REPLACE <COLOR>
CARTRIDGE message.
NOTE If all of the print cartridges wear out at the same time and you are printing mostly
monochrome (black and white), you should change the print mode to MOSTLY BLACK
PAGES. See
System Setup sub-menu for more information.
