(1) Ink tank system (PGI-5BK, CLI-8 series)
An LED is installed in each ink tank.
By the LED indication, wrong installation of the ink tanks will be prevented, and the remaining ink level can be visually
recognized with the ink tanks seated in the carriage.
The pigment-based black ink (PGI-5BK) with higher resistance against bleeding or marker pens increases weather resistance of
photo quality prints.
The combination of the pigment-based black ink and the dye-based inks (CLI-8 series) makes the ink system strong in both
photo and text printing.
