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 this manual, 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.
Ink Cartridge Safety Instructions
■
Install the ink cartridge immediately after you remove it from its foil
package. Leaving the cartridge unpacked for a long time before use
may result in reduced print quality.
■
Do not put your hand inside the printer or touch the cartridge during
printing.
■
Under normal circumstances, ink will not come out of the cartridge.
If it does get on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it gets in
your eyes, flush them immediately with water.
■
Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the
ink.
■
Do not dismantle the ink cartridges or try to refill them. This could
result in damage to the print head.
■ Once you install an ink cartridge, do not open the clamp or remove
the cartridge except to replace it with a new one. The cartridge may
become unusable otherwise.
■ Do not use an ink cartridge beyond the date printed on the cartridge
package. For best results, use up the ink cartridges within six months
of installing them.
■ Do not shake an ink cartridge; this can cause leakage.
■ Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise you may damage the
printer.
■ Before transporting the printer, make sure the print head is capped in
the far right position and the ink cartridges are in place.
