Remove kinked or discolored sections, and dispose of UV-ink-contaminated tubing safely. Inspect barbs and quick connectors; replace worn clips to prevent future air intake.

Reconnect the damper or ink sac, then the printhead side. Keep white-ink lines separate and shake white ink before filling to reduce sediment. Confirm all fittings are seated before powering on.
