Checking the Remaining Maintenance Cartridge Capacity
The Maintenance Cartridge absorbs excess ink from borderless printing, printhead cleaning, and other processes. You can
confirm the remaining capacity of the Maintenance Cartridge by checking the Maintenance Cartridge capacity shown on the
Display Screen.
To check remaining Maintenance Cartridge capacity, access the
Tab Selection screen
on the Control Panel and press

displayed indicating to check the remaining capacity of the Maintenance Cartridge, or before tasks that deplete much of the
capacity such as head cleaning or preparations to move the printer, check the remaining Maintenance Cartridge capacity and
prepare a new Maintenance Cartridge as needed.
