Handling Precautions Canceling Print Jobs Legal Restrictions on Scanning/Copying Printer Handling Precautions Transporting Your Printer When Repairing, Lending, or Disposing of the Printer Keeping Print Quality High 191
Legal Restrictions on Scanning/Copying Scanning, printing, copying, or modifying copies of the following may be punishable under law. This list is non-exhaustive. When in doubt, check with a local legal representative.
Printer Handling Precautions Do not place any object on the document cover! Do not place any object on the document cover. It will fall into the rear tray when the document cover is opened and cause the printer to malfunction. Also, place the printer where objects will not fall on it.
Transporting Your Printer When relocating the printer for changing your living place or repairing it, make sure of the following. Important • Pack the printer in a sturdy box so that it is placed with its bottom facing down, using sufficient protective material to ensure safe transport. • With the print head and ink tank left installed in the printer, press the ON button to turn off the power. This allows the printer to automatically cap the print head, thus preventing it from drying.
7. Use adhesive tape to secure all the covers on the printer to keep them from opening during transportation. Then pack the printer in the plastic bag. 8. Attach the protective material to the printer when packing the printer in the box.
When Repairing, Lending, or Disposing of the Printer If you have entered personal data, passwords and/or other security settings on the printer, such information may be stored in the printer. When sending the printer for repair, lending or transferring the printer to another person, or disposing of the printer, please be sure to follow the steps below in order to delete such information and prevent third parties from accessing it. • Select Yes.
Keeping Print Quality High The key to printing with the optimal printing quality is to prevent the print head from drying or clogging. Always observe the following rules for optimal printing quality. Note • Depending on the type of paper, ink may blur if you trace the printed area with a highlight pen or paintstick, or bleed if water or sweat comes in contact with the printed area.

Unsupported Media Types Do not use the following types of paper. Using such paper will cause not only unsatisfactory results, but also the printer to jam or malfunction.
Handling Paper • Be careful not to rub or scratch the surfaces of any types of paper when handling. • Hold the paper as closely as possible to its edges and try not to touch the printing surface. The print quality may be degraded if the printing surface is smudged with sweat or oil that comes from your hands. • Do not touch the printed surface until the ink is dried. Even when the ink is dried, be careful not to touch the printed surface as much as possible when handling.
Before Printing on Art Paper When using art paper, dust is liable to be generated. It is therefore recommended that paper dust be removed on art paper just before printing. You will need a soft hair brush (or similar brush used to clean office automation equipment). The wider the brush, the more effective it will be. OK - soft brush made from material such as polypropylene, polyethylene, horse hair or goat hair. Important • Be sure not to use brushes as shown below. The printing surface may be damaged.
3. To complete the removal of paper dust, brush the paper in the other direction from top to bottom.
