The amount of remaining ink shown in the cartridge replacement indicator is for
reference only and may differ from the actual amount. Also, cartridges can become
empty without a low ink warning appearing.
Cartridge Empty
The ink has run out.
Replace the cartridge.
If the cartridge is empty, head cleaning or flushing cannot be performed.
If the ink runs out during printing, the printer may eject blank or partially printed
sheets.
Cartridges that the printer report as empty may still contain a small amount of ink.
This is normal as the cartridges are overfilled to prevent them from completely
running dry. This prevents air from being drawn into the printer.
Used Cartridge
A used ink cartridge was installed.
Replace the ink cartridge.
See section "Ink Cartridge" for more information.
If the cartridge is empty, head cleaning or flushing cannot be performed.
