Ink Cartridge Safety - Epson Artisan 50 Series Quick Manual

■
Place the printer on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond its base in all directions.
It will not operate properly if it is tilted or at an angle.
■
Do not touch the flat white cable inside the printer, and be careful not to trap your
fingers when closing the scanner.
■
Do not spill liquid on the printer or use it with wet hands.
■
Except as specifically explained in your documentation, do not disassembly, modify,
or 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.
■
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. Store cartridges with their labels facing upward.
