Please take your time installing OptimusCISS™ Continuous Ink Supply System. Do not remove your old cartridge until you have the CISS primed and ready to install (to prevent the drying of heads). In addition, make sure you are getting perfect nozzle checks before installing the CISS. The CISS won’t be able to work properly if the nozzles are previously clogged. Most people get a perfect nozzle check the first time after installing the CISS; others may need to run two or three cleaning cycles or let the printer sit for a while before they get the perfect results.
Better to have sample print before installing OptimusCISS™ CISS for future comparison of prints.
