Printing on Roll Paper
Preparing the printer
Once you start a print job, you cannot clean the print head or replace the ink cartridges until the job
is finished. Before printing, please run a nozzle check to see if you need to clean the print head.
We also recommend that you check the remainin g i nk levels using the Status M onitor utility
(Windows and Macintosh) to ma ke sure you ha ve enough ink to complete the print jo b. (See your
printer m anual for instructions.)
If the printer runs out of ink while you are printing, you cannot resume printing from that point even
if you replace the empty cartridge. If there is only a small amount of ink remaining in either cartridge,
replace the cartridge(s) before printing. See your pr inter manual for instructio ns on replacin g
outdated ink cartridges before the black or color ink lights begin flashing.
