Assembling the Printer

Now that you are familiar with the components of your printer, you are
ready to install the printer and connect it to your computer. The first
step is to install the ink cartridge.

Installing the Ink Cartridge

You use the BC-02 ink cartridge with this printer. Each ink cartridge
can print about 400 to 500 letter-size pages (700,000 characters) in HQ
mode and 800 to 1000 pages (1,400,000 characters) in HS mode. The
actual amount varies according to the print density of a page. If you
print a lot of graphics, you may need to change cartridges more often

To avoid spilling ink, follow these precautions:

T

Do not touch the print head on the ink cartridge or the sharp
edges around it.

T

Do not hold the ink cartridge, or place it on your table, with the
print head facing down, except when you are installing it.

T

Do not attempt to disassemble the cartridge.

T

Do not vigorously shake the ink cartridge while handling it.

NOTE: Canon makes numerous ink cartridges; the BC-02 is designed
specifically for the Bubble Jet Printer BJ-200e and is the only one you
should use. Using the BC-01 cartridge will result in decreased print quality.
