Temporarily Continuing Printing with One Ink Cartridge When the Other Is Expended
If one ink cartridge still contains ink when the other is expended, you can continue printing for a short time using the remaining cartridge. Print speed will however be slower, and the expended cartridge should be replaced as soon as possible. The following section described how to temporarily continue printing with one cartridge.
Note:|
The actual amount of time will vary depending on the usage conditions, images printed, print settings, and frequency of use.
This feature is not available for Mac OS X 10.4 or earlier.
