Notice and useful tips for copying
Note for copying
When you make a copy using a control panel function, a moiré
(cross-hatch) pattern may appear on your printout. To eliminate the moiré, change the reduce/enlarge ratio or shift the position of the original document.
The copied image may not have exactly the same size as the original.
English
If this product runs out of paper while making copies, be sure to load
additional paper as soon as possible. If left without paper for a long period of time, the colors of the first copy made after reloading may not accurately reflect those of the original.
If the LCD panel indicates low ink while you are copying, you can
either continue making copies until the ink runs out, or stop making copies and then replace the ink cartridge.
Copying 19
When copying in BorderFree or Small Margins layout
Because this layout enlarge the image to a size slightly larger than the paper size, the portion of the image that extends beyond the edge of the paper will not be copied.
When copying in Poster layout
Depending on the original image, the number of divided images may not be 4, 9, or 16 as you selected, because this product reads the entirely white area as blank and the area will not be printed.
Gluing the images together
1. Align the images.
2. Cut the crossover area, and then glue all the images together.
The illustration shows the example of making poster with 4 printouts. The gray area shows the excess area to be cut.
Warning:
Be careful when using edged tools.

otherwise, ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out.
56 Replacing Ink Cartridges
Precautions on Ink Cartridge Replacement
If you need to remove an ink cartridge temporarily from this
product, be sure to protect the ink supply area of the ink cartridge from dirt and dust. Store the ink cartridge in the same environment as this product. When storing the cartridge, be sure that its label identifying the color of the ink cartridge is facing upward. Do not store ink cartridges upside down.
The valve in the ink supply port is designed to contain any excess
ink that may be released. However, careful handling is recommended. Do not touch the supply port of the ink cartridge or its surrounding area.
This product uses ink cartridges equipped with an IC chip. The IC
chip accurately monitors the amount of ink used by each cartridge, so even if a cartridge is removed and then later inserted again, all of its ink can be used. However, some ink is consumed each time the cartridge is inserted because this product automatically checks its reliability.
When an ink cartridge becomes empty, you cannot continue copying
even if the other cartridge still contains ink. Before copying, replace the empty cartridge.
English
In addition to being used in document copying, ink is also consumed
in the following operations: print head cleaning, self-cleaning cycle performed when this product is turned on, and ink charging when an ink cartridge is installed in this product.
Do not refill the ink cartridges. This product calculates the amount
of ink remaining using an IC chip built into an ink cartridge. Even if the cartridge is refilled, the amount of ink remaining is not recalculated by the IC chip and therefore the amount of ink available for use does not change.
After an ink cartridge is replaced, if the ink is low it may become
empty. When a message appears to indicate the ink is low, prepare a new ink cartridge.
Replacing Ink Cartridges 57
Replacing an Ink Cartridge
