Replacing the Borderless Pads
If you see ink smears on the back of your printouts, you may need to replace the pads for borderless printing. Only replace the borderless pads in the areas where you notice ink on your prints. You do not need to replace all of the borderless pads.
You need a Borderless Replacement Pad Kit and a pair of tweezers to perform the replacement.
- Open the front cover.
- Using tweezers, pull out the borderless pads in the areas where ink transfer occurs.
- Use the cleaning sticks to wipe off the accumulated ink as shown in the following locations:Bottom

- Bend the leg on a new borderless pad as shown below.
Note: Do not bend the borderless pad except at the area shown.
- Insert the leg of the borderless pad all the way into the hole as shown.
- Push the protrusions on the sides of the borderless pad into the grooves on the left and right.
- Gently press the borderless pad until it is seated in place.
Caution:Make sure that no part of the borderless pad extends above the surrounding surface. The borderless pad may rub against the print head and damage it.
