Safety Instructions

Important Safety Instructions

Read all of these instructions before using your printer. Also be

sure to follow all warnings and instructions marked on the

printer.

❏Do not block or cover the openings in the printer’s cabinet.

Do not insert objects through the slots.

❏Take care not to spill liquid 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.

❏Avoid electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or

automatic timers.

❏Keep the entire computer system away from potential sources

of electromagnetic interference, such as loudspeakers or the

base units of cordless telephones.

❏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.

❏Do not attempt to service the printer yourself.

❏Unplug the printer and refer servicing to qualified service

personnel under the following conditions:

The power cord or plug is damaged; liquid has entered the

printer; the printer has been dropped or the cabinet damaged;

the printer does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct

change in performance.

❏If you use the printer in Germany, observe the following:

To provide adequate short-circuit protection and over-

current protection for this printer, the building installation

must be protected by a 16 Amp circuit breaker.

Bei Anschluß des Druckers an die Stromversorgung muß

sichergestellt werden, daß die Gebäudeinstallation mit einem

16 A-Überstromschalter abgesichert ist.

A Few Precautions

When using the printer

❏Do not put your hand inside the printer or touch the ink

cartridges during printing.

❏Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise, you may

damage the printer.

❏Always turn the printer off using the

Ppower button. When

this button is pressed, the

Ppower light flashes briefly then

goes off. Do not unplug the printer or turn off the power to

the outlet until the

Ppower light stops flashing.

❏Before transporting the printer, make sure the print head is in

the home (far right) position and the ink cartridges are in

place.

When handling the ink cartridges

❏Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children. Do not allow

children to drink from or otherwise handle the cartridges.

❏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 shake an ink cartridge; this can cause leakage.

❏Install the ink cartridge immediately after you remove it from

its package. Leaving the cartridge unpacked for a long time

before use may result in reduced print quality.

❏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 carton. For best results, use up the ink cartridges

within six months of installing them.

❏Do not dismantle the ink cartridges or try to refill them. This

could damage the print head.

When choosing a place for the printer

❏Place the printer on a flat, stable surface that is larger than the

printer. The printer will not operate properly if it is tilted or

at an angle.

❏Avoid places subject to rapid changes in temperature and

humidity. Also keep the printer away from direct sunlight,

strong light, or heat sources.

❏Avoid places subject to shocks and vibrations.

❏Leave enough room around the printer to allow for sufficient

ventilation.
