❏The package contents may vary in certain locations.

❏The ink cartridges packaged with your printer are partly used during initial setup. In order to produce

high quality printouts, the print head in your printer will be fully charged with ink. This one-off process

consumes a quantity of ink and subsequent cartridge sets will last for their full rated life.

Unpacking the Printer

Remove all tape and protective materials from the printer. Store the

protective materials in case you want to ship the printer in the future.

Note:

Remove the protective material as shown in figure A before setting up your

printer. Store the protective materials in case you want to ship the printer in

the future.

cCaution:

Do not touch or remove the white cable shown in figure B. Doing so can

adversely affect the printer operation.

Attaching the Printer Parts

Insert the paper support into the slots at the rear of the printer.

To attach the roll paper holder, follow the instructions below.

1. With the arrows on the roll paper holder adapter pointing towards

the front of the printer, insert the adapter as far as it will go into the

slot at the rear of the printer.

2. Insert the roll paper holder into the slots at the back of the roll paper

holder adapter.

Note:

You can temporarily mount the roll paper holder on the printer by inserting it

into slots at the rear of the paper support adapter. You do not need to load roll

paper at this time.

Plugging in the Printer

Follow the steps below to plug in your printer.

1. Make sure that the printer is turned off. It is off when the Ppower

button protrudes slightly from the surface of the control panel.

2. Check the label on the back of the printer to make sure the voltage

required by the printer matches that of the electrical outlet you will

be plugging it into. Also, make sure that you have the correct power

cable for your power source.

cCaution:

It is not possible to change the printer’s voltage. If the rated voltage

and your outlet voltage do not match, contact your dealer for

assistance. Do not plug in the power cord.

3. If the power cord is not attached to the printer, connect it to the AC

inlet at the back of the printer.

4. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded electrical outlet.

➁➀

Installing Ink Cartridges

This printer uses ink cartridges equipped with IC chips. The IC chip

accurately monitors the amount of ink used by each cartridge, so even

if a cartridge is removed and then inserted again, all of its ink can be

used. However, some ink from both color and black ink cartridges is

consumed each time a cartridge is inserted because the printer

automatically checks reliability.

Be sure to use the ink cartridges packed with your printer the first time

that you install ink cartridges.

Installing the Ink Cartridges

Before installing the ink cartridges, note the following:

wWarning:

The ink cartridges are self-contained units. Under ordinary use,ink will

not leak from a cartridge. If ink does get on your hands, however, wash

them thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets into your eyes, flush

them immediately with water.

Note:

Do not open the ink cartridge packages until just before you install them, or the

ink may dry up.

Follow the steps below to install the ink cartridges.

1. Open the output tray and the printer cover, then

turn on the printer by pressing the P power

button.

2. Lift up the ink cartridge clamps, as shown here.

cCaution:

Do not move the print head by hand. Doing so may damage the

printer.

3. Remove only the yellow tape

from the ink cartridges.

cCaution:

❏You must remove the yellow tape seals from the cartridges

before installing them, or the cartridges will become unusable

and you will be unable to print.

❏If you have installed an ink cartridge without removing the

yellow tape seal, you must remove that cartridge and install a

new one. Prepare the new cartridge by removing the yellow tape

seal before installing it in the printer.

❏Do not remove the blue portion of the tape seal from the

cartridges, or the cartridges may become unusable.

❏Do not remove the tape seals from the bottom of the cartridges,

or ink will leak out.

❏Do not touch the green IC chip on the side

of the cartridge. Doing so may prevent

normal operation and printing.

❏Do not remove the green IC chip from the

side of the cartridge. If you install an ink

cartridge without a chip, the printer may

be damaged.

4. Align the tabs on each ink cartridge so that

they rest on top of the tabs protruding from

the base of the ink cartridge clamps. Do not

apply excessive force to the cartridges.

Make sure that the ink cartridge tabs are not

under the tabs protruding from the base of

the opened ink cartridge clamps.

Note:

Install both ink cartridges. The printer will not work with only one

cartridge.

Do not touch this part.

5. Lower the ink cartridge clamps until they lock into place.

6. Press the eink cartridge replacement button.

The printer moves the print head and begins

charging the ink delivery system. This process

takes about two and a half minutes.

cCaution:

Always press the eink cartridge replacement button to move the

print head. Do not move the print head by hand. Doing so may

damage the printer.

While the ink is charging, the Processing light flashes and the Select

Photo display rotates. During this process, printer will emit a variety

of mechanical sounds. These sounds are normal. When the ink

delivery system is charged, the print head will return to the home

(far right) position and the Processing light will come on.

cCaution:

Never turn off the printer while the processing light is flashing and

the Select Photo display is rotating.

7. Close the printer cover.

Checking the printer

Before printing your first page, you need to make sure that the printer

is working correctly by loading paper, then printing a nozzle check page

and, if necessary, cleaning the print head. Refer to the appropriate

section below.

Loading paper

Follow the steps below to load plain paper into the printer.

1. Lower the output tray andslide outthe extension. Slide the left edge

guide so that the distance between the edge guides is slightly wider

than your paper.

2. Fan a stack of paper, then tap it on a flat surface to even the edges.

3. Load the stack of paper into the sheet

feeder with the printable side up and the

right edge of the paper flush against the

right edge guide. Slide the left edge

guide against the left edge of the paper.

Note:

❏Always load paper into the sheet feeder short edge first.

❏Make sure that the paper stack fits under the arrow mark inside the

edge guide.

Checking the print head nozzles

Make sure that the printer is turned

off. Hold down the bmaintenance

button (➀in the illustration) and

press the Ppower button (➁in the

illustration) to turn on the printer.

Release only the power button, and

when the printer starts the nozzle

check, release the bmaintenance

button.

Below are sample printouts.

If the nozzle check page does not print satisfactorily (for example, if any

segment of the printed lines is missing), then you should clean the print

head as explained below. If the printout is satisfactory, you are ready to

print directly from the PC card. Refer to Daily Use for instructions.

For the use with a computer, refer to the next step, " Connecting the

Printer".

Cleaning the print head

Follow the steps below to clean the print head.

1. Make sure that the Processing light is on and that the berror light

is off.

2. Hold down the bmaintenance

button for three seconds.

The printer will start cleaning

the print head and the

Processing light will start flash.

Print head cleaning takes about

thirty seconds to complete.

cCaution:

Never turn off the printer while the Processing light is flashing.

Doing so may damage the printer.

3. When the Processing light stops flashing, print a nozzle check

pattern to confirm that the head is clean and to reset the cleaning

cycle.

If print quality hasn’t improved after repeating the nozzle checking and

cleaning procedures four or five times, contact your dealer.

Connecting the Printer

Your printer connects to your computer via the USB interface.

Depending upon your geographic location, you may need to obtain the

appropriate cable. See “Options and Consumable Products”in the Daily

Use guide for details.

Note:

In order to connect your PC via the USB interface, your computer must be a

Windows Me, Windows 98, Windows XP or Windows 2000 pre-installed

model that comes with a USB port, or Windows Me upgraded from a

Windows 98 pre-installed model.

To connect the printer to a USB port, you will need a standard, shielded

USB cable. Follow these steps:

Note:

❏For best results, you should connect the printer directly to the computer’s

USB port. If you must use multiple USB hubs, we recommend that you

connect the printer to the first-tier hub.

❏If your computer has more than one USB port, you may plug the cable in

wherever is convenient.

1. Make sure that both the printer and the computer are turned off.

2. Plug the appropriate end of the cable into

the USB port on the back of the printer. (The

endthatfitstheprinterhasadifferentshape

from the end that fits the computer.)

3. Connect the other end of the cable to the computer’s USB port.
