Insert only one of each color ink tank in the MP520

Solution

More Than One of the Same Ink Tank is Installed

When installing or replacing an ink tank, only one of the following ink tanks should be installed. If the ink tank is not installed correctly, an error message will display.


Use the following procedure to replace empty ink tanks or when an ink tank error appears.

  1. Confirm that the printer is powered on and open the paper output tray.


  2. Lift the scanning unit (printer cover) completely. (The print head will move to the replacement position.)



    Note: When the scanning unit (printer cover) is opened more than ten minutes, the print head moves to the right side. If this occurs, close the scanning unit (printer cover), and open it again.

  3. Open the inner cover.


  4. Press the ink tank's tab (1), then remove it from the slot (2).




  5. Unpack the ink tank and pull the orange tape off completely in the direction of the arrow and remove the film.





    Note: Tear the orange tape carefully along the dotted line. If the orange tape remains, printing problems may occur.





    <4> Tape is completely removed.

    <5> Tape remains. Remove the orange protective cap located on the bottom of the ink tank by twisting as shown in the diagram.

    Caution: Do not touch the ink tank contact <6>. Doing so may cause printing problems. Do not squeeze the side of ink tanks as this may cause the ink to leak out. Do not reattach the protective cap once you have removed it.

  6. Insert ink tanks into the print head.





    Note: Press the mark on the ink tank firmly until you hear a click.



  7. Ensure that all the ink tanks are installed properly and the ink tank lamps light red.

    Note: Click for Ink Tank Lamp indications.

  8. Close the inner cover and the scanning unit (printer cover).

    Caution: When closing the scanning unit (printer cover), be careful not to jam fingers.

    Memo: The next printing begins, the print head cleaning will begin automatically.

Ink Tank Lamp indications

You can check the status of each ink tank according to the way its lamp flashes.

  • On: The printer is ready to print.
  • Slow flashing (at about three second interval): Ink is low. Prepare a new ink tank.
  • Fast flashing (at about one second interval): Ink tank is empty, or the printer is not ready due to an error.
  • Off: An error has occurred and the printer is not ready to print.
