Warm Tips for Maintaining Ink Cartridges:

To prevent the ink from drying out and blocking the nozzle, when not in use, please cover the protective cap of cartridge back in time. Also, the ink cartridges should be stored in a well-ventilated area, keep them away from the source of the heat or extreme cold or hot temperature.

Please run a quick troubleshooting by following these steps.

Electric pin

1. Press the pins on the cartridge container to check whether they can bounce back normally.

2. Check whether there is any dirt on the ink cartridge's chip before installing; if yes, please gently clean it with an eraser or lint-free cloth.
