Handling Print Cartridges

• Keep the print cartridge in its sealed package until you are ready to use it.

• Store the print cartridge at room temperature.

• Once you have removed the print cartridge from its sealed package,

leave it in the print cartridge cradle inside the printer.

• Do not leave the print cartridge in the open. Store the black or color print cartridge in the storage container when it is not in the printer.

• After the factory packing tape has been removed from the print cartridge, do not attempt to replace the packing tape. Reapplying the tape can cause the colors to mix, producing incorrect colors when printing.
