Important Safety Instructions

Before using your printer, read the following safety instructions to make sure you use the printer safely and effectively:

Be sure to follow all warnings and instructions marked on the printer.

Do not block or cover the openings in the printer’s case or insert objects through the slots. Leave enough room around the printer for sufficient ventilation.

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

Use only the power cord that comes with the printer. Use of another cord may result in fire or electric shock. Do not use the cord with any other equipment.

Be sure your AC power cord meets the relevant local safety standard.

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.

Avoid electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers.

Keep your printer and computer system away from potential sources of electromagnetic interference, such as loudspeakers or cordless telephone base units.

Do not use a damaged or frayed power cord.

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 your documentation, 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.

When connecting the printer to a computer or other device with a cable, ensure the correct orientation of the connectors. Each connector has only one correct orientation. Inserting a connector in the wrong orientation may damage both devices connected by the cable.

Place the printer on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond the printer base in all directions. The printer will not operate properly if it is tilted or at an angle.

When storing or transporting the printer, do not tilt it, stand it on its side, or turn it upside down. Otherwise, ink may leak from the cartridges.
