Troubleshooting

Ink not dispensing during refill

Ensure the ink bottle nozzle is correctly seated in the ink tank port. Check that the printer is powered on and in the correct state for refilling. Verify you are using the correct ink bottle for the corresponding color tank.

Poor print quality (streaky or faded magenta)
