Replacing the Ink 
Cartridge
Your actual ink usage varies depending on whether you routinely print ads, 
how many pieces of mail you print a day and other factors. 
The control centre display tells you when the ink supply is low or  
exhausted:
“Low Ink”
When the “Low Ink” warning is displayed you shuold replace your ink  
cartridge immediately. If you do not have a replacement ink cartridge you 
should order one right away. In addition it is very important to closely  
monitor the print quality of the indicia. Any deterioration in the quality of the 
indicia (fading, streaking) may result in the indicia not being recognised. as 
valid postage.
CAUTION! Replace the ink cartridge as soon as you see the  
“Low Ink” alert.
“Out of Ink”
Replace the ink cartridge immediately. The ink supply is gone; you won't 
be able to print. 
1.  Open the rear cover of the mailing machine.
2.  Grasp the ink cartridge firmly and pull it straight up and out of the  
machine. Discard the old cartridge.
3.  Remove the new cartridge from  
its bag.
4.  Orient the cartridge so the label faces 
forward, and push the cartridge down 
into the well as far as it will go. See 
the figure above, right. The cartridge 
is designed so you can't install it the 
wrong way.
HINT: We recommend 
that you keep a spare 
ink cartridge on hand 
at all times.
