Safety Instructions

Important Safety Instructions

Read all of the instructions in this section before using your

printer. Also, be sure to follow all warnings and instructions

marked on the printer.

When setting up your printer

Observe the following when setting up the printer:

❏Do not block or cover the vents and openings in the printer.

❏Use only the type of power source indicated on the printer’s

label.

❏Use only the power cord that comes with this product. Use of

another cord may result in fire or electric shock.

❏This product’s power cord is for use with this product only.

Use with other equipment may result in fire or electric shock.

❏Be sure your AC power cord meets the relevant local safety

standard.

❏Avoid using outlets on the same circuit as photocopiers or air

control systems that regularly switch on and off.

❏Avoid electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or

automatic timers.

❏Keep the entire computer system away from potential sources

of electromagnetic interference, such as loudspeakers or the

base units of cordless telephones.

English

❏Do not use a damaged or frayed power cord.

❏If you use an extension cord with the printer, make sure that

the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the

extension cord does not exceed the cord’s ampere rating. Also,

make sure that the total ampere rating of all devices plugged

into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s ampere

rating.

❏Do not attempt to service the printer yourself.

❏Unplug the printer and refer servicing to qualified service

personnel under the following conditions:

The power cord or plug is damaged; liquid has entered the

printer; the printer has been dropped or the casing damaged;

the printer does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct

change in performance.

❏When connecting this product to a computer or other device

with a cable, ensure the correct orientation of the connectors.

Each connector has only one correct orientation. Inserting a

connector in the wrong orientation may damage both devices

connected by the cable.

❏If you plan to use the printer in Germany, the building

installation must be protected by a10 or 16 amp circuit breaker

to provide adequate short-circuit protection and over-current

protection for this printer.

When choosing a place for the printer

Observe the following when choosing a place for the printer:

❏Place the printer on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond

the base of the printer in all directions. If you place the printer

by the wall, leave more than 10 cm between the back of the

printer and the wall. The printer will not operate properly if

it is tilted at an angle.

❏When storing or transporting the printer, do not tilt it, stand

it on its side, or turn it upside down. Otherwise, ink may leak

from the cartridges.

❏Leave enough space in front of the printer for the paper to be

fully ejected.

❏Avoid places subject to rapid changes in temperature and

humidity. Also, keep the printer away from direct sunlight,

strong light, or heat sources.

❏Avoid places subject to dust, shocks, or vibrations.

❏Leave enough room around the printer to allow for sufficient

ventilation.

❏Place the printer near a wall outlet where the plug can be

easily unplugged.

English

When using the printer

Observe the following when using the printer:

❏Do not insert objects through the slots in the printer.

❏Take care not to spill liquid on the printer.

❏Do not put your hand inside the printer or touch the ink

cartridges during printing.

❏Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise, you may

damage the printer.

❏Always turn the printer off using the P power button. When

this button is pressed, the LCD panel goes blank. Do not

unplug the printer or turn off the power to the outlet until the

LCD panel goes blank.

❏Before transporting the printer, make sure that the print head

is in the home (far right) position and the ink cartridges are

in place.

❏Leave the ink cartridges installed. Removing the cartridges

can dehydrate the print head and may prevent the printer

from printing.

When using a memory card

❏Do not remove the memory card or turn off the printer while

the computer and the memory card are communicating

(when the memory card lights is flashing.).

❏The methods for using memory cards vary according to card

type. Be sure to refer to the documentation packaged with

your memory card for details.

❏Use only memory cards compatible with the printer. Refer to

Loading Memory Cards.

When using LCD panel or the preview monitor

❏The LCD panel or preview monitor may contain a few small

bright or dark spots. These are normal and do not mean that

they are damaged in any way.

❏Only use a dry, soft cloth to clean the LCD panel or the

preview monitor. Do not use liquid or chemical cleansers.

❏If the LCD panel on your printer's control panel or preview

monitor is damaged, contact your dealer. If the liquid crystal

solution gets on your hands, wash them thoroughly with soap

and water. If the liquid crystal solution gets into your eyes,

flush them immediately with water. If discomfort or vision

problems remain after a thorough flushing, see a doctor

immediately.

English

When using the optional Bluetooth Photo Print

Adapter

Refer to the Bluetooth Photo Print Adapter's documentation for

the safety instructions.

When handling the ink cartridges

Observe the following when handling the ink cartridges:

❏Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children. Do not allow

children to drink from or otherwise handle the cartridges.

❏Do not shake the ink cartridges; this can cause leakage.

❏Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges, as there may

be some ink remaining around the ink supply port. If ink gets

on your skin, wash the area thoroughly with soap and water.

If ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water.

If discomfort or vision problems remain after a thorough

flushing, see a doctor immediately.

❏Do not remove or tear the label on the cartridge; this can cause

leakage.

❏Install the ink cartridge immediately after you remove it from

its package. If you leave a cartridge unpacked for a long time

before using it, normal printing may not be possible.

❏Do not use an ink cartridge beyond the date printed on the

cartridge carton: otherwise, it may result in reduced print

quality. For best results, use up the ink cartridges within six

months of first installing them.

❏Do not dismantle the ink cartridges or try to refill them. This

could damage the print head.

❏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.

❏Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place.

❏Do not touch the green IC chip on the back of the cartridge.

Doing so may prevent normal operation and printing.

❏The IC chip on this ink cartridge retains a variety of cartridge

related-information such as the amount of ink remaining, so

that the cartridge may be removed and reinserted freely.

However, each time the cartridge is inserted, some ink is

consumed because the printer automatically performs a

reliability check.

❏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 printer. A valve in the ink supply port

makes covers or plugs unnecessary, but the ink may stain

items that come into contact with this area of the cartridge.

Do not touch the ink supply port or the surrounding area.

❏Use only CD/DVD media labelled as suitable for printing, for

example “Printable on the label surface” or “Printable with ink jet

printers”.

❏The printed surface is easily smeared immediately after printing.

❏Be sure to let CDs and DVDs dry completely before using them or

touching the printed surface.

❏Do not allow the printed CD/DVD to dry in direct sunlight.

❏Moisture on the printable surface may cause smearing.

❏If the CD/DVD tray or the internal transparent compartment are

accidentally printed on, immediately wipe off the ink.

❏Reprinting on the same CD/DVD may not improve the print

quality.

Preparing to Print on CD/DVD

1. Open the printer cover, then open the CD/DVD guide.

2. The “Switching to CD/DVD print mode” message appears

An error occurs if the CD/DVD guide is opened while printing, or

if paper is loaded in the sheet feeder.

3. Insert the memory card containing the photo data you want

to print into the memory card slot.

Exif Print and PRINT Image Matching

Exif Version 2.2 (also called Exif Print, an international standard

for digital cameras) and PRINT Image Matching allow you to

print fine-quality photographs using, in combination, a digital

camera and printer that support these features.

English

Effectiveness

Exif Print

When taking photographs using an Exif Print compatible digital

camera, information about camera settings and scene conditions

when the photograph was taken is embedded in the photo data.

Such information includes exposure mode, white balance, gain

control, contrast, saturation, and sharpness, among other

attributes. The printer then corrects and enhances the photo data

using this information and prints an image that reflects the

original scene captured by the digital camera.

✽The Exif and P.I.M. icons appears when the first photograph in the

memory card has PRINT Image Matching or Exif Print information and

when All, Range, Photo number and Individual selected in Select

Photo.
