counter. The ink dot counter automatically 
monitors the level of ink in each of the 4 
cartridges. When the machine detects an ink 
cartridge is running out of ink, the machine 
will tell you with a message on the LCD.
The LCD will tell you which ink cartridge is low 
or needs replacing. Be sure to follow the LCD 
prompts to replace the ink cartridges in the 
correct order.
