Caution

3.Firmly raise the Print Head Lock Lever (E) until it stops.

4.Remove the Print Head from the silver package.

5.Remove the orange protective cap.

Caution

There may be some transparent or light color ink on the inside of the bag the Print Head comes in, or the inside of the protective cap - this has no effect on print quality. Be careful not to get ink on yourself when handling these items. Be careful not to stain your hands.

6.Set the Print Head in place.

Caution

Do not knock the Print Head against the sides of the holder.

7.Lower the Print Head Lock Lever (E) completely.

Do not open the Top Cover while the lamp is flashing.

The printer vibrates while the lamp is flashing because ink is stirred inside the printer.
