Safety Precautions

■

Printheads and ink tanks

For safety reasons, store printheads and ink tanks out of the reach of small children.

If a child ingests any ink, consult a doctor immediately.

Do not shake printheads or ink tanks.

Ink may leak out and stain clothing or the surrounding area.

Never touch the electrical contacts on a printhead after printing.

The metal parts may be very hot and could cause burns.
