To service the ink tanks:
Ensure that the printer is on, and then open the Top Cover.
The Print Head Holder moves to the center.
Note
If the Top Cover is left open for more than 10 minutes, the Print Head Holder moves to the right. Close and reopen the Top Cover to return the holder to the center.
2 Open the Paper Output Tray.
Put your fingers in the notches in either side of the Paper Output Tray and pull down to open it, and then pull down the Inner Cover forward to open it.
3 Remove the ink tank whose lamp is flashing fast.
(1) Push the tab and remove the ink tank.
Do not touch the print head lock lever; remove only the ink tank.

Important
Handle ink tanks carefully to avoid staining clothing or the surrounding area.
Discard empty ink tanks according to the local laws and regulations regarding disposal of consumables.
Note
Be sure to replace ink tanks one by one when replacing more than one ink tank.
4 Prepare a replacement tank.

* Do not touch the electrical contacts on the ink tank. Doing so can cause the printer to malfunction or become unable to print.
(1) Unpack the new ink tank and completely pull off the orange tape. Then, remove the film.
(2) Remove the orange protective cap from the bottom of the ink tank and discard it.
Important
Be sure to remove the clear film from the ink tank in the exact order shown in step 4-(1), as failure to follow this step may cause the ink to leak and stain your clothes and hands.
Do not squeeze the side of ink tanks as this may cause the ink to leak out and stain your clothes and hands.
Do not re-attach the protective cap once you have removed it.
Do not touch the open ink port once the protective cap is removed, as this may prevent the ink from being ejected properly.
Ink on the removed protective cap may stain your clothes and hands.
Ensure that all the orange tape has been peeled off along the perforation. If there remains a part of the orange tape, ink may not be output correctly.
5 Install the ink tank.

(1) Insert the ink tank into the Print Head.
(2) Press on the mark on the ink tank until the ink tank snaps firmly into place.
(3) Ensure that the ink tank lamp lights red.
Important
Ensure that all the ink tanks are installed in the order directed by the label. The printer cannot be used unless all the ink tanks are installed.
6 Close the Inner Cover.

Note
Ensure that the Inner Cover is closed. Printing will not occur if the Inner Cover is open.
7 Close the Top Cover.
The Print Head Holder moves to the right. The ink tank installation process is now complete.
Note
The ALARM lamp still flashes orange after the Top Cover is closed if an ink tank is not installed properly. Open the Top Cover and make sure that all the ink tanks are installed in the correct order directed on the label.
To maintain optimal print quality, use an ink tank within six months of first use.
Once an ink tank has been used, do not remove it from the printer and leave it out in the open. This will cause the ink tank to dry out and the printer may not operate properly when it is reinstalled.
Color ink consumption may occur even when black-and-white or gray scale printing is specified.
Color ink is consumed in the head cleaning and deep cleaning, which are necessary to maintain the printer.
When you start printing after replacing the ink tank, Print Head Cleaning is performed automatically. Do not perform any other operations until the Print Head Cleaning finishes. The POWER lamp flashes green during cleaning.

Alarm / Power light flashes orange 7 times consecutively is a Print head error so it sounds like you did the right thing.

I would reseat the printhead along with each one of the ink cartridges. Make sure that you removed the tape from the bottom of each of the ink cartridges and try it again. After installing the new printhead, you should have run a printhead cleaning cycle immediately after installing.

2. Remove the empty ink tank by pushing the tab on the ink tank.

Note: When doing this, do not remove the print head. When replacing multiple ink tanks, it is recommended to replace one at a time to avoid inserting them into the wrong slots.
(The image is an example using i850.)


3. Remove the new ink tank from its package. Pull the orange tape in the direction of the arrow to remove it completely, and remove the shrink-wrap film.

Note: Remove the orange tape completely. If the tape remains, printing may not be performed properly.


Confirm that the orange tape is completely removed from the ink tank, as shown in image 1. If the tape is similar to the sample in image 2, remove the remaining portion of the tape so that it looks like the sample shown in image 1.


(1): Correct

(2): Incorrect (where the arrow indicates)
4. Slowly twist the orange protective cap in the direction that the arrow indicates, and remove it. To avoid ink adhering to your fingers, brace the orange protective cap while removing it.

Note: Confirm that the ink tanks are installed in the right order according to the labels on the print head.

6. Press down on the top of the ink tank until a click sound is made.

7. Close the front cover. The next time the printer performs printing, it will automatically start print head cleaning. The power lamp will flash while cleaning is performed. Until cleaning completes, do not perform other operations.

The waste ink absorber is usually in the right side of the printer where the cartridges reside when the computer is off. To find the waste ink absorber you need to lift the cover of the printer remove the screws or some printer unlock the clip to remove the cover. After you remove the cover in the right side of the printer. The waste ink absorber is in the bottom of the printer head. Some printer you need first to remove the head before you can remove the waste ink absorber. The waste ink absorber is like a foam that we using in the dish washing you can wash and dry also. But before you can remove the waste ink absorber try first to solve the problem by using some guide how to reset the waste ink absorber problem. If you encounter this search in the internet about how to reset the waste ink absorber.
