Ink Cartridge Precautions

NOTE

•Ink cartridges should be kept in a cool dark place. However, the ink will freeze if it is stored for a long period below -10˚C for black ink and below -10˚C for colored ink so storage under these conditions should be avoided. If the ink becomes frozen, it should be thawed for at least three hours at room tempera- ture (25˚C) before use.

•Open the ink cartridge just before you load it into the slot. Printing may be blurred if the ink cartridge is left open for a long time.

•Printing may not be possible even though there is ink remain- ing in the cartridge. Therefore, after an ink cartridge has been installed, it should not be taken out and re-inserted until it needs to be replaced by a new cartridge.

•Ink cartridges should be used within two years of the date that is printed on the package. Cartridges that have been loaded into the printer should be used up within six months.

•Condensation will occur if an ink cartridge has been moved from a cold place to a warm place. It should not be used until it has been left for at least three hours at room temperature and the condensation has disappeared.

•Since capping will not occur unless the head is at the right hand end, an ink leakage may occur. Therefore, the power switch should not be turned off or the power cord disconnect- ed during printing or while the head is moving.
