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 an ink cartridge well before installing it 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 the 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.
•Do not touch the ink supply port or its surrounding area and 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.
