❏Connect all equipment to properly grounded power outlets.

Avoid using outlets on the same circuit as photocopiers or air

control systems that regularly switch on and off.

❏Avoid electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or

automatic timers.

❏Keep the entire computer system away from potentialsources

of electromagnetic interference, such as loudspeakers or the

base units of cordless telephones.

❏Do not use a damaged or frayed power cord.

❏If you use an extension cord with the printer, make sure that

the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the

extension corddoes not exceed the cord’sampere rating. Also,

make sure that the total ampere rating of all devices plugged

into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s ampere

rating.

❏Do not attempt to service the printer yourself.

❏If you plan to use the printer in Germany, the building

The power cord or plug is damaged; liquid has entered the

printer; the printer has been dropped or the cabinet damaged;

the printer does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct

change in performance.

A Few Precautions

Take note of the following when using the printer, handling the

ink cartridges, or choosing a location for the printer.

When using the printer

Observe the following:

❏Do not put your hand inside the printer or touch the ink

cartridges during printing.

❏Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise, you may

damage the printer.

❏Always turn the printer off using the Ppower button. When

this button is pressed, the Ppower light flashes briefly and

then goes out. Do not unplug the printer or turn off the power

to the outlet until the Ppower light stops flashing.

❏Before transporting the printer, make sure that the print head

is in the home (far right) position and the ink cartridges are

in place.

When handling the ink cartridges

Observe the following:

❏Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children. Do not allow

children to drink from or otherwise handle the cartridges.

❏Be careful when you handle the used ink cartridges, as there

may be some ink remaining around the ink supply port. If ink

gets on your skin, wash the area thoroughly with soap and

water.

❏If ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water.

If discomfort or vision problems remain after a thorough

flushing, see a physician immediately.

❏Do not shake an ink cartridge; this can cause leakage.

❏Install the ink cartridge immediately after you remove it from

its package. Leaving the cartridge unpacked for a long time

before use may result in reduced print quality.

❏Do not use an ink cartridge beyond the date printed on the

cartridge carton. For best results, use up the ink cartridges

within six months of installing them.

❏Do not dismantle the ink cartridges or try to refill them. This

could damage the print head.

❏After bringing an ink cartridge inside from a cold storage site,

allow it to warm up at room temperature for at least three

hours before using it.

❏Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place.

❏Do not touch the green IC chip on the side of the cartridge.

This may affect normal operation and printing.

❏In this ink cartridge, the IC chip retains a variety of cartridge

related-information, such as the amount of ink remaining, so

that a cartridge may be removed and reinserted freely.

However, each time the cartridge is inserted, some ink is

consumed because the printer automatically performs a

reliability check.

❏If you remove an ink cartridge for later use, protect the ink

supply area from dirt and dust and store it in the same

environment as the printer. Note that there is a valve in the

ink supply port, making covers or plugs unnecessary, but care

is needed to prevent the ink from staining items that the

cartridge touches. Do not touch the ink cartridge ink supply

port or surrounding area.

When choosing a place for the printer

Observe the following:

❏Place the printer on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond

the printer base in all directions. The printer will not operate

properly if it is tilted or at an angle.

❏Leave enough space in front of the printer for paper to be fully

ejected.

humidity. Also, keep the printer away from direct sunlight,

strong light, or heat sources.

❏Avoid places subject to dust.

❏Leave enough room around the printer to allow for sufficient

ventilation.

❏Place the printer near a wall outlet where the plug can be

easily unplugged.
