Purging an Ink
Cartridge
One ink cartridge is included with the Scanner 3520DP and
Color Scanner 4500DP. Additional ink cartridges may be purchased
from an office supply retailer near you.
You must purge the ink cartridge before installing it.
1. Remove the ink cartridge from the box and inner wrappings.
2. Hold the cartridge and insert a straightened paper clip into the larger
hole on the top of the ink cartridge.
3. Rotate the ink cartridge until the bottom is face up.
4. Gently press the paper clip against the side of the ink bladder
until a small bead of ink appears on the ink flow point on the ink
cartridge bottom.
CAUTION: Do not puncture the ink bladder with the paper clip.
5. Remove the paper clip.
6. Allow the ink bead to absorb back into the ink cartridge.
7. Blot the excess ink with a lint-free tissue.
CAUTION: Do not touch the ink flow point or you may cause
improper ink flow.
