Install the ink tanks.
Important
Make sure that all the ink tanks are installed in the correct position, matching the label. The
machine cannot be used unless all the ink tanks are installed.
If the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover) is left open for more than 10 minutes, the Print Head Holder
moves to the right side. Close and reopen the Scanning Unit (Printer Cover) to return the holder
to the center.
Do not squeeze the side of ink tanks as this may cause the ink to leak out and stain your clothes
and hands.
Do not reattach the protective cap once you have removed it.
5
Install the clear ink tank.
Important
Wait for about 2 minutes, until the machine has stopped making operating noises, before
proceeding.
Note
Clear ink is used only when printing on plain paper. By coating the surface of plain paper with
clear ink before actual printing begins, the clear ink coating prevents absorption of other inks to
enhance colors.
Be sure to pull the orange tape as shown in step 3 of your setup sheet to remove the protective
film.
An error message will be displayed on the LCD if an ink tank is not installed properly. Open the
Scanning Unit (Printer Cover) and make sure that position of all the ink tanks match the label.
6
Load printing paper.
In the following process, you will be required to perform the Print Head Alignment, and you
will need four sheets of plain paper loaded in the Cassette.
Important
Do not place any objects in front of the machine.
Always load paper in portrait orientation. Loading paper in landscape orientation can cause the
paper to be jammed.
Notes on the Print Head Alignment
Print Head Alignment will take about 9 minutes to complete. Do not open the Scanning Unit
(Printer Cover) while printing.
If the pattern is not printed successfully and some error messages appear on the LCD, press
the OK button to clear the error, go ahead to the next procedure to install the MP Drivers and
on-screen manuals, then refer to "An Error Message Is Displayed on the LCD" in the User's
Guide on-screen manual.
