Installing the Inkjet Cartridges
The five replaceable (and interchangeable) inkjet cartridges the Astrojet II uses for printing are
installed as follows:
•
Remove a print cartridge from its packaging taking care not to touch the copper
contacts, the metal plate, or the gold printhead.
•
The cartridges are held in place by vertical brackets mounted on the inkjet carriage.
•
With the cartridge's gold printhead pointing toward the rear of the unit, slide the bottom
edge of the cartridge down along the front of the bracket until it slides partly into place.
•
At this point press the upper part of the cartridge toward the bracket until it clicks
completely into place under the metal spring secured to the bracket.

Repeat this procedure for each of the remaining 4 cartridges.
