You can check the ink status with the Ink lamps on the Operation Panel or with the computer screen.
NOTE
- The ink level detector is mounted on the machine to detect the remaining ink level. The machine considers as ink is full when a new FINE Cartridge is installed, and then starts to detect remaining ink level. If you install a used FINE Cartridge, the indicated ink level of it may not be correct. In such case, refer to the ink level information only as a guide.
- When remaining ink cautions or errors occur, the error code will appear on the LED to inform you of the error. Refer to "An Error Code Is Displayed on the LED".
