Refilling Procedure
When you need to refill an ink tank, follow the steps below.
Important
• Please ensure the printer remains flat after initial setup and is NOT turned upside down or on its side,
as ink in the printer may leak.
• If the remaining ink level notification function is enabled, refill all four ink tanks until full. If the
remaining ink level counter is reset when the ink tanks are not full, the printer cannot detect the ink
level correctly.
1. Make sure the printer is on.
2. Open the top cover (B).
