A Few Precautions

When using the printer

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

cartridges during printing.

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

damage the printer.

❏Always turn the printer off using the Power button on the

control panel. When this button is pressed, the Operate light

flashes briefly then goes off. Do not unplug the printer or turn

off the power to the outlet until the Operate light stops

flashing.

❏Before transporting the printer, make sure the print heads are

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

place.

When handling the ink cartridges

❏Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not

drink.

❏If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it

gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with water.

❏Do not shake ink cartridges as this can cause leakage.

❏Once you install an ink cartridge, do not remove the cartridge

except to replace it with a new one. The printer may not

determine the correct level of ink remaining.

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

cartridge carton.

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

could damage the print heads.
