on the printer user panel can 
decrease to about 95%. Chapter 7

requires the use of media. If you enter the 'Printheads'('Replace printhead') wizard while
no media is present, 
the printer asks you to load a roll of media first.
Note:
Only replace a defective printhead using the 'Printheads'('Replace printhead') wizard.
Note:
A printhead is defective when the printhead has an electric defect or a major number of
nozzles fail. 
You cannot continue to print before the printhead is replaced. When to do
The system displays an error message and prompts you to replace the defective printheads.
Only 
replace the printheads the system indicates.
Caution:
Only replace printheads when they are defective. Changing printheads that are not defec-
tive 
will shorten the printhead lifetime and cause problems with the ink system.
