• Use an ink cartridge before the date printed on its package or within six months of opening the
package, whichever is earlier.
• Store ink cartridges with their bottoms down. Do not store cartridges upside down.
• After bringing an ink cartridge inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room temperature
for at least three hours before using it.
• Do not open the ink cartridge package until you are ready to install it in the printer. The cartridge is
vacuum packed to maintain its reliability. Leaving a cartridge unpacked for a long time before using it
may prevent normal operation.
• Do not break the hooks on the side of the cartridge when removing it from the packaging.
• Do not shake cartridges after opening their packages; this can cause them to leak.
• You must remove the yellow tape from the cartridge before installing it; otherwise, print quality may
decline or you may not be able to print.
• Do not remove the transparent seal from the bottom of the cartridge. This may cause the cartridge to
become unusable.
• Do not touch the green IC chip on the side of the cartridge. This may prevent normal operation.
• Make sure to install all ink cartridges. The printer only works when all ink cartridges are properly
installed.
• Do not turn off the product during ink charging. If ink charging is incomplete, you may not be able to
print.
• 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 product. 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.
• Install a new ink cartridge immediately after removing an expended one. Leaving cartridges
uninstalled can dry out the print head and may prevent the product from printing.
• Do not turn off the printer during cartridge replacement. Otherwise, ink remaining in the print head
nozzles will dry out and you may not be able to print.
• Only remove an ink cartridge when you are ready to replace it. Ink cartridges with low ink status may
not be used when reinserted.
• Do not put your hand inside the product or touch any cartridges during printing.
• Removed ink cartridges may have ink around the ink supply port, so be careful not to get any ink on
the surrounding area when removing the cartridges.
