How Low Ink Setting Works

The remaining ink volume display on the operation panel is a function that monitors how much ink is used, 
and indicates the remaining ink volume.

When you reset the ink counter, it will assume that the ink tank is full regardless of how much ink actually 
remains. The reset is the only way to match the counter value with an actual ink volume. Reset the ink 
counter when installing a new ink tank.

When the remaining ink volume is low;

The ink volume remaining in the indicated tank is low.  A new ink tank should be prepared.

How to Display Low Ink Correctly

• Reset the ink counter every time you install a new ink tank.

The ink counter cannot work correctly unless you synchronize it with the actual ink level. The 
ink counter can only be adjusted when it is reset at the time a new ink tank is installed.

• Do not reset the ink counter of an ink tank in use.

Synchronization of the counter and the actual ink level will not work properly.

If you did not reset the counter when you installed the current ink tanks, the low ink may not function 
correctly, until the next time you replace the ink tanks. Also, be sure to you treat both counters 
separately. Refer to the section “The ? mark is displayed beside the ink tank icon.” on page 36
