When the machine is in 4 color ink set mode, it will automatically switch over to another Ink cartridge after detecting [Near end] and [Ink end].
For example:, 1st Magenta cartridge detected [Ink end] during printing image and UISS valve will switch over to the 2nd Magenta cartridge. However, the first ink cartridge with lower ink is used when a cleaning function is performed.

*UISS function is not available other than 4 color ink-set mode.
