Chapter 1 Before Use

• Wipe off any ink or maintenance liquid remaining on the ink bottle or bottle cap. Otherwise
there is a risk of ink leakage due to the bottle cap spinning freely.
• Check to confirm that there is no foreign matter, such as paper towel scraps or dust,
adhering to the bottle cap. Continued use if soiled may result in foreign matter blocking
the ink, causing ink leakage.

• Do not overtighten the bottle cap. Doing so may result in damage, leakage of ink, or
cause it to spin freely. If the range indicated above is exceeded, loosen the bottle cap and
then start again.
• Do not leave an ink bottle with the bottle cap attached for an extended period of time.
Disregarding this precaution may cause the ink to harden.

Turn the ink bottle upside-down to check that no ink leaks occur.
