NOTE
If the Ink Tubes System needs to be replaced, this can be
performed by the User.
The Printer will advise the User when the Carriage and/or Tubes 
need to be replaced by displaying a Warning message. The Warning 
message is triggered by the following number of cycles:
n
6.5 million for the Carriage.
n
6.5 million for the Tubes.
The number of cycles can be checked at anytime by printing the 
Service Configuration Print.
