Paper Saver Setup
For printing with Paper Saver self-erasing ink we want the printer to use only the Paper Saver ink in the Black tank. If we set the printer to Black & White and the Media Type to “Plain Paper” (or anything but “Photo”) th printer will use only regular ink.
Select “Black and White”.
Select Media & Quality” and then select “Plain Paper” as the Media Type.
Click on “Presets” and select “Save Current Settings as a Preset…”
Enter the name “PAPER SAVER” and click “OK”
