When handling the ink cartridges
❏ Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of 
children and do not drink their contents.
❏ Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place.
❏ If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap 
and water. If ink gets in your eyes, flush them 
immediately with water.
❏ Shake an ink cartridge well before installing it 
for best results. 
c
Caution:
Do not shake cartridges (that have been 
installed previously) with too much force.
❏ Do not use an ink cartridge beyond the date 
printed on the cartridge carton.
❏ Use up the ink cartridge within six months of 
installation for best results.
❏ Do not dismantle the ink cartridges or try to 
refill them. This could damage the print head.
❏ Do not touch the ink supply port or its 
surrounding area and the green IC chip on the 
side of the ink cartridge. Doing so may affect 
normal operation and printing.
