Ink Cartridge Safety Instructions
• Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.
• Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges; there may be ink remaining around the ink supply
port. If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them
immediately with water.
• Do not put your hand inside the product or touch any cartridges during printing.
• Install a new ink cartridge immediately after removing an expended one. Leaving cartridges
uninstalled can dry out the print head and may prevent the product from printing.
• Install ink cartridges in all the ink cartridge slots. You cannot print if any of the slots are empty.
• Dried ink on the supply port may cause ink leaks when the cartridge is reinserted and used. Wipe off
any excess ink before reinserting.
• Do not insert or remove replacement cartridges during printing.
• Do not remove the transparent seal from the ink supply port. This may cause the cartridge to become
unusable.
• The green 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. Do not touch the green IC
chip on the side of the cartridge. This may prevent normal operation and printing.
• 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 the 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 cartridge ink supply port or surrounding area.
• To ensure print quality, use an ink cartridge before the date printed on its package.
• Do not dismantle or alter an ink cartridge. This could damage the print head and may prevent the
product from printing.
• Do not drop cartridges or bump them against hard objects; otherwise, the ink may leak.
• Store ink cartridges at room temperature in a location that is not exposed to direct sunlight.
• After bringing an ink cartridge inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room temperature
for at least four hours before using it.
