Ink tips:

• Keep ink in its packaging until you are ready to use it.
• To avoid ink jams, never insert broken ink sticks into the ink-loading bins.

Loading ink:

To load ink any time the printer is Idle, or when the front panel displays Ink low or Ink out, follow this procedure.

1. Open the top cover. A color-coded label inside the top cover corresponds to the color of each ink-loading bin.
2. Remove the ink stick from its packaging.
3. Place the appropriate color ink stick into the ink-loading bin that appears low. Do not force the ink sticks into the ink-loading bins.
   
   Each ink stick is uniquely shaped to fit into the correct ink-loading bin. Insert the ink stick's narrow end first.
4. Close the top cover.

The front panel may read Processing until the printer is ready for printing.
