Precautions when handling ink tanks
Take the following precautions when handling ink tanks.
• For safety, keep ink tanks out of the reach of children.
• If ink is accidentally ingested, contact a physician immediately.
Caution
• There may be ink around the ink supply section of ink tanks you removed. Handle ink tanks
carefully during replacement. The ink may stain clothing.
Important
• Do not install used ink tanks in another model of printer.
This will prevent correct ink level detection, which may damage the printer or cause other
problems.
• We recommend using up an Ink Tank in the course of printing within six months after breaking
the seal. Printing quality may be affected if you use older ink tanks.
• Do not leave the printer without ink tanks installed for extended periods (a month or more).
Residual ink may become clogged inside the printer and affect printing quality.
