■Do not place the printer on an unstable surface or near a radiator or heating vent or in direct sunlight.

■Do not block or cover the openings in the printer’s case or insert objects through the slots.

■Use only the type of power source indicated on the printer’s label.

■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.

■Place the printer near a wall outlet where the plug can be easily unplugged.

■Do not let the power cord become damaged or frayed.

■If you use an extension cord with the printer, make sure the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord’s ampere rating. Also, make sure the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s ampere rating.

■Except as specifically explained in this manual, do not attempt to service the printer yourself.

■Unplug the printer and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

If the power cord or plug is damaged; if liquid has entered the printer; if the printer has been dropped or the case damaged; if the printer does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions.

Ink Cartridge Safety Instructions

■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 put your hand inside the printer or touch the cartridge during printing.

■Under normal circumstances, ink will not come out of the cartridge. If it does get on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with water.

■Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.

■Do not dismantle the ink cartridges or try to refill them. This could result in damage to the print head.

■Once you install an ink cartridge, do not open the clamp or remove the cartridge except to replace it with a new one. The cartridge may become unusable otherwise.

■Do not use an ink cartridge beyond the date printed on the cartridge package. For best results, use up the ink cartridges within six months of installing them.

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

■Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise you may damage the printer.

■Before transporting the printer, make sure the print head is capped in the far right position and the ink cartridges are in place.
