CAUTION
When removing one of the cartridge holders, you need to remove all cartridge holders on
its right, since they are laid on top of the left in the order of yellow magenta cyan and
black from left. For instance, you must remove the black, cyan and magenta ink cartridge
holders to remove the yellow ink cartridge holder.
Be careful when tightening the coupling screw, since the threads in the cartridge is
breakable.
WORK POINT
Note that the coupling screw compresses the tube fixing O-ring to prevent ink leakage.
Therefore, be sure to install them in the appropriate order, as follows:
1) Insert the tube to the coupling screw.
2) Insert the tube to the O-ring.
When installing the ink cartridge holders, fit each ink cartridge holder to the supporting
point of the cartridge holder on its left.
ASP ink cartridge holder assembly has a protection tube, which must be removed once
the ASP ink cartridge is installed.
