Fill ink tanks

Note: This product requires careful handling of ink. Wear disposable

gloves and place a sheet of paper under the ink tank unit when you
fill or refill the ink tanks, as ink may splatter. If ink spills, wipe it off
immediately with a damp towel to avoid permanent stains. If ink gets on
your clothes or belongings, it may not come off.

Caution: Keep the ink bottles out of the reach of children and do not

drink the ink.

Note: Refer to the color coded sticker on the ink tank unit cover

to identify the color of each tank.

Caution: Be sure to fill each tank with the correct ink color.
