❏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 refi ll 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 rem aining, 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 cartridg e 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 wi ll 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.
