Does my product automatically switch between the Matte Black and the Photo Black ink cartridge when I change the media selection in the driver to a matte or photo ink media type?

  • Yes, the printer will automatically switch to the correct black ink.

    You can also switch the black ink type manually. See below.

    Switching the Black Ink Type

    2. Press the  black ink change button.
    3. Select Proceed and select one of these types of black ink to switch to:
      • Photo Black to Matte Black; switching takes about 1.5 minutes
      • Matte Black to Photo Black; switching takes about 3.5 minutes
