Replacing the ink cartridges
Be sure to observe the following precautions when replacing an ink cartridge.
CAUTION
• As a safety precaution, store ink cartridges in a location out of the reach of
small children.
• If ink is licked or ingested accidentally, consult a doctor immediately.
IMPORTANT
• Be sure to use only the Graphtec ink cartridges designed for the JW220 printer
(part numbers IJ-90001BK, IJ-90001C, IJ-90001M, and IJ-90001Y).
• Do not touch an ink cartridge's printed circuit board.
Such action will adversely affect the printing. More-
over, there is a risk of damage to the ink cartridge
from static electricity.
• Do not drop or shake the ink cartridges. Such actions may cause the ink to leak
or spatter, with the risk of staining your surroundings and clothing.
• Before mounting an ink cartridge, make sure that the print heads have already
been mounted.
• There are four types of ink cartridges: black (BK), cyan (C), magenta (M) and
yellow (Y). Check the replacement ink cartridge’s position in the ink holder
before mounting it, and be sure to mount it correctly.
• Make sure that the printer is in the power-on status when replacing an ink
cartridge. Replacing an ink cartridge when the printer has been turned off may
cause the cartridge to malfunction.
• Do not leave an ink cartridge that has been removed from the printer lying
around for an extended period of time. Doing so may cause ink deterioration,
inferior print quality, or clogging of the print head nozzles.
