Ink Jet Precautions
Because the SQ-850 and SQ-2550 are the ink jet printers, certain
precautions are necessary to ensure their safe and efficient
operation. Even if you are familiar with other types of printers,
be sure to read through this list of precautions.
Make sure that the ink does not come in contact with your
skin or eyes. If it does get on your skin, wash it off with
soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them with
plenty of water and contact a physician.
Do not dismantle the ink cartridges; they cannot be refilled.
Keep the cartridges out of the reach of children.
Do not use an ink cartridge beyond its rated life expectancy.
Ink cartridges are good up to the date printed on the
cartridge.
See that the print head is capped before the printer is turned
off. To cap the head, simply push the
ON LINE
button to set
the printer off line. The head caps automatically when it
enters the off line state. Then turn off
the
printer.
Never remove the ink cartridge when the printer is on line
or when it is printing.
Do not turn the printer on and off
when
the ink cartridge is
not installed.
Do not put your hand inside the printer when it is printing.
Before you transport the printer, make sure that the head is
capped and that the ink cartridge is removed.
If ink accidentally gets
on
the platen (the black roller), wipe
it off with a clean rag or with tissue paper.
