<If a message for checking the Maintenance Cartridge is shown on the Display Screen>
When the Maintenance Cartridge is almost full, the Message Lamp is lit and "The level is low" is shown on the Display Screen. You can continue to print, but check the remaining Maintenance Cartridge capacity and prepare to replace the Maintenance Cartridge with a new one.
REFERENCE
<If a message for the Maintenance Cartridge replacement is shown on the Display Screen>
When the Maintenance Cartridge is full, the Message Lamp flashes and a message to replace the Maintenance Cartridge is shown on the Display Screen. Printing is disabled, and you cannot replace the Printhead or transfer the printer. Replace the Maintenance Cartridge with a new one.
NOTE
- Printhead cleaning, Printhead replacement, and preparations to transfer the printer deplete much of the Maintenance Cartridge capacity. (In particular, preparing to move the printer depletes a lot of the capacity.)
Check the remaining Maintenance Cartridge capacity before this maintenance and replace the Maintenance Cartridge if necessary.
