Handling Ink Tank Precautions

Follow the precautions below when handling ink tanks.

Caution

zStore the ink tanks out of the reach of small children. If a child accidentally ingests ink from an ink tank, contact a physician immediately.

Important

zTo avoid spilling and damage from stains, never drop or shake an ink tank.

zThere may be some ink on or around the ink port of an ink removed from the printer, so always handle a removed ink tank carefully to avoid staining your clothing or the work area.

zDo not break the seal of the protective packing on an ink tank until you are ready to install it in the printer. After breaking the seal, install the ink tank immediately. Not installing and ink tank immediately after breaking its seal could cause poor printing.

zAn ink tank should be used up within six months after its seal is broken. Not using the ink tank within this time period could cause poor printing.

zNever leave an ink tank removed from the printer for longer than one month. This could lead to ink clogging in the tank and poor printing.
