Place the printer near

Do not let the power

Do not open the scanner

Do not use aerosol products
that contain ammable
gases inside or around
the printer. Doing so may
cause re.
Except as specically

Keep ink cartridges out of
the reach of children.
If ink gets on your skin, wash the area
thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets
into your eyes, ush them immediately
with water. If discomfort or vision problems
continue after a thorough ushing, see a
doctor immediately. If ink gets into your
mouth, spit it out immediately and see a
doctor right away.
Do not shake the ink
cartridges too vigorously;
otherwise ink may leak from
