• Photo cartridges should be used for printing pictures. Using it for normal faxing and black printing operations will prematurely deplete the black ink in the photo cartridge.

• Printing black with the photo cartridge installed will be much slower than using the black cartridge.

• Normal incoming faxes cannot be printed when the

Photo cartridge is installed. They will be saved to memory so you may print them later.

Always store the unused black or photo cartridge in the storage container provided with the photo cartridge.
