The paper starts feeding, and then the 

printer automatically starts charging the 

system with ink and adjusting the print 

head. Charging the system with ink and 

adjusting the print head for the first time 

takes about 45 minutes.

Important

• Do not open the covers of the printer 

or turn the power off while the ink is 

charging for the first time and the print 

head adjustment is executing.

Note

• Charging the system with ink fills the 

system from the ink tanks to the print 

head. In addition, cleaning is performed 

to keep the printer in optimal condition. 

This may cause the remaining ink 

indicator and maintenance cartridge 

capacity indicator to drop some amount. 

The starter ink tank is for first-time 

installation. It is recommended that you 

purchase replacement ink tanks quickly.
