Prepare the replacement tank.
(1)
Remove the new ink tank from its packaging,
then pull the orange tape in the direction of the
arrow (A) so that the protective film does not
remain on the air hole (B). Then remove the
film completely (C).
(2)
Remove the orange protective cap from the
bottom of the ink tank.
Discard the cap once it is removed.
Important
Make sure that all the orange tape has been peeled off
along the perforation. If part of the orange tape is
remaining, ink may leak out when you remove the
protective cap and may not eject properly when
printing.

Be sure to remove the clear film from the ink tank in
the exact order shown in step 4-(1), as failure to

your clothes and hands.

Do not squeeze the side of ink tanks as this may
cause the ink to leak out and stain your clothes and
hands.

removed it. Discard it according to the local laws
