Description

This article shows how to specify which ink cartridge(s) you want to use when printing from a Windows PC.

Solution

This feature enables you to specify the most appropriate FINE cartridge among installed cartridges according to an intended use.
When one of the FINE cartridges becomes empty and cannot be replaced immediately by a new one, you can specify the other FINE cartridge that still has ink and continue printing.

The procedure for specifying the FINE cartridge is as follows:

 

Ink Cartridge Settings

  1. Open the printer driver setup window.

  2. Click Ink Cartridge Settings on the Maintenance tab.

    The Ink Cartridge Settings dialog box appears.

  3. Select the FINE cartridge to be used for printing and click OK.
    The specified FINE cartridge will be used from the next printing.

 When a setting other than Plain Paper or Envelope is selected for Media Type on the Main tab, Black Only is disabled because the machine uses the color FINE cartridge to print documents.

 Do not detach the FINE cartridge that is not in use. Printing cannot be performed while either FINE cartridge is detached.
