Important Safety Instructions

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

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

■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. Placez l’imprimante près d’une prise de courant où la fiche peut être débranchée facilement.

■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 outlet’s ampere rating.

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

■Avoid locations that are subject to rapid changes in heat or humidity, shocks or vibrations, or dust.

■Leave enough room around the printer for sufficient ventilation, leaving at least 3.9 inches between the back of the printer and the wall.

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

■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 transporting or storing the printer, don’t tilt it, stand it on its side, or turn it upside-down. This may allow ink to leak from the ink cartridges.

■Turn off and unplug the printer before cleaning. Clean with a damp cloth only. Do not spill liquid on the printer.

Caution: Always turn the printer off using the power button. Don’t switch off the power strip or unplug the printer until the green power light is off.

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

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