Use of generic consumables

The printer is designed to offer the best performance with using specified ink and ink cartridges.

Though re-filled or generic ink cartridges can be used, SIIT highly recommends you to use SIIT standard inks only in the printer.

Generic inks have the potential to cause damage to the printer, leading to interference in normal operation, and SIIT reserves the right to void the warranty if any issue is deemed by SIIT to be caused in part by the use of non-SIIT inks.

When generic consumables are used:

- Generic consumables have the potential to cause damage to the printer, leading to interference in normal operation, and SIIT reserves the right to void the warranty if any issue is deemed by SIIT to be caused in part by the use of non-SIIT inks.

- When using an re-filled or generic ink cartridge for any single color, specified ink cartridges used for other colors are also regarded as unspecified.

- The printed image quality may be lower than that achieved by using specified consumables.

- The printer cannot correctly recognize the remaining ink quantity. In this case, the quantity is displayed as “???%”.
