Fill the ink tanks.
Be aware of the following when working with ink bottles:
Keep the ink bottles beyond the reach of children.
Open the ink bottle only when you are filling the ink tanks.
Store the ink bottles upright in a cool, dry place.
Lift the ink access door,
and then open the tank covers.
Open the cap on the black ink tank.
If your ink bottles have twist-off lids, twist to remove the lid, and then set it aside.
If your bottles have a flip-top lid, twist the lid to remove it.
Pull the seal tab to completely remove it from the bottle, and then dispose of the seal.
Replace and tighten the lid on the bottle, and then flip open the lid.
Match the black ink bottle with the black ink tank.
Hold the bottle on the tank nozzle, making sure the tip of the bottle fits properly over the nozzle,
and let the ink drain into the tank until the tank is full.
NOTE: If the bottle does not start draining, remove it, and then reinsert it onto the tank.
Do not squeeze the bottle.
After the black ink tank is filled, set the bottle upright, and then close the ink bottle lid.
Close the black ink tank cap.
Repeat the previous steps to fill the other ink tanks.
Once the ink tanks have been filled, close the tank covers, and then the ink access door.
Wait 30 seconds for the printer to calibrate before moving forward with the next step.
Store bottles with leftover ink upright in a cool, dry place.
Install the printheads.
Lift the ink access door, and then wait for the carriage to move to the center and stop.
Press the blue button to open the printhead cover.
Remove and discard the orange guard.
NOTE: Handle the orange guard carefully to avoid ink stains.
Remove the printheads from their packaging.
Remove the orange cap and protective tape from both printheads.
CAUTION: Do not touch the copper-colored contacts or the ink nozzle.
Do not replace the protective tape on the contacts.
Handling these parts can result in clogs, printhead failure, and bad electrical connections.

Load paper
Open the input tray.
Press and hold the button on one of the paper-width guides.

Load a stack of plain paper with the print-side facing down into the input tray.

and does not exceed the stack-height marking on the tray.
Adjust the paper-width guides until they touch the edges of the stack of paper.
Close the input tray.
Pull out the output tray extender.
To complete the printer setup, align the printhead and scanner.
This is a critical step to ensure full printer functionality.
Align the printheads and the scanner.
If your printer has a touchscreen control panel, follow the control panel prompts to print an Alignment page,
and then follow the instructions on the page to scan it and align the new printheads.
If your printer does not have a touchscreen control panel,
an "A" blinks on the control panel and an Alignment page prints automatically.
Follow the instructions on the page to scan it and align the new printheads.
