Tips for best results
- Store cartridges in a cool, dry place and install them after a gentle shake to ensure even ink distribution.
- Print a test page after installation to confirm consistent black density across the page.
- Use genuine printer maintenance routines and allow prints to dry fully before handling to prevent smudges.
- If you notice fading or streaks, run a printer cleaning cycle and re-test on plain paper before printing important documents.
