❏If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them
immediately with water.
❏For best results, shake the ink cartridge four or five times.
!
Caution:
Do not shake cartridges (that have been installed previously) with too much force.
❏Use an ink cartridge prior to the date printed on the cartridge carton.
❏Use up the ink cartridge within six months of installation for best results.
❏Do not disassemble or modify the ink cartridge; otherwise, you may not be able to print normally.
❏Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place.
❏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.
❏Do not touch the green IC chip on the side of the cartridge. This may affect normal operation and
printing.The IC chip on this ink cartridge retains a variety of cartridge related-information, such
as the ink cartridge status, so that the cartridge may be removed and reinserted freely. 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 the ink from staining items that the
cartridge touches. Do not touch the ink supply port or surrounding area.
