Ink Cartridge Safety Instructions
Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the
ink.
Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place.
If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If ink gets in
your eyes, flush them immediately with water.
Shake ink cartridges before installing them for best results.
Do not use an ink cartridge beyond the date printed on the cartridge
carton.
Use up the ink cartridge within six months of installation for best
results.
Do not dismantle 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.
The IC chip on the ink cartridge retains a variety of cartridge
information, which allows you to remove and reinsert it 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 this product.
Note that there is a valve in the ink supply port, making covers or plugs
unnecessary, but care is needed to prevent ink from staining items that
the cartridge touches.
Do not touch the ink supply port, its surrounding area, or the green IC
chip on the side of the ink cartridge. Doing so may affect normal
operation and printing.
Caution: Do not use too
much force when you
shake cartridges that
have been previously
installed.
