Safety Instructions 17
❏ 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 P power button. When 
this button is pressed, the P power light flashes. Do not 
unplug the printer or turn off the power to the outlet until the 
P power light stops flashing.
❏ Before transporting the printer, make sure that the print head 
is in the home (far right) position and the ink cartridges are 
in place.
❏ Leave the ink cartridges installed. Removing the cartridges 
can dehydrate the print head and may prevent the printer 
from printing.
When handling the ink cartridges
Observe the following 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.
❏ Shake the new ink cartridges four or five times before opening 
the packages.
❏ Do not shake the ink cartridges after opening the packages; 
this can cause leakage.
❏ Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges, as there may 
be some ink remaining around the ink supply port. If ink gets 
on your skin, wash the area thoroughly with soap and water. 
If ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water. 
If discomfort or vision problems remain after a thorough 
flushing, see a doctor immediately.
