■ Except as specifically explained in your documentation, 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 product; if the product has been dropped or the case damaged; if the product does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions. ■ If damage occurs to the plug, replace the cord set or consult a qualified electrician. If there are fuses in the plug, make sure you replace them with fuses of the correct size and rating. ■ Before transporting the printer, make sure that the print head is in the home (far right) position and the ink cartridges are in place. ■ When storing or transporting the printer, do not tilt it, stand it on its side, or turn it upside down; otherwise ink may leak from the cartridges. Ink Cartridge Safety ■ 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 printer 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 printer from 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 printer. 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. ■ Use an ink cartridge before the date printed on its package. ■ Do not dismantle an ink cartridge. This could damage the print head. ■ Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place. ■ After bringing an ink cartridge inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room temperature for at least three hours before using it. ■ Store ink cartridges with their labels facing upward. Do not store cartridges upside down. 3
