Cartridge End

A Print cartridge is empty. Printing can continue using ink remaining in the printer; however, no ink is left in the Print cartridge. Check which color of cartridge needs to be replaced, and then replace it.

Checking ink color

  • Checking using the Printer Status monitor

    • In the illustration above, the cyan Print cartridge is empty.

  • Checking the low ink indicators

    • Blinking

      In the illustration above, the cyan Print cartridge is empty.

    Note

    • From left to right, the low ink indicators display the status of the black (K), cyan (C), magenta (M), and yellow (Y) Print cartridges.

    • Since solid color printing on semi-gloss photo paper consumes a lot of ink of that color, printing may stop in the middle of the printing process because ink of that color is depleted.

    • Do not perform a normal head cleaning or a full head cleaning unless it is necessary. Ink may run out making printing impossible.

    • If you turn the power off and then on again, ink adjustment is performed in the printer which may result in the ink running out.
