How to use

Turn the printer on and open the cartridge access cover according to the printer’s user guide. Remove the empty cartridge by gently pressing the release tab and pulling it out, then unpack the replacement cartridge and remove any protective tape or covers without touching the electrical contacts or nozzle. Insert the new cartridge into the appropriate yellow slot until it clicks into place, then close the access cover. Run a test print or head alignment if the printer prompts to ensure optimal colour registration.

Usage recommendations

Store cartridges in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use the yellow cartridge as part of a matched set with other colour cartridges to preserve colour balance and prevent nozzle clogging. If the printer is unused for extended periods, perform occasional nozzle checks and print head maintenance cycles as indicated by the printer software to maintain consistent print quality.
