A Few Precautions
■When using the Stylus Scan
■Do not put your hand inside the Stylus Scan or touch the ink cartridges during operation.
■Do not move the print head by hand. Doing so may damage the EPSON Stylus Scan.
■Always use the P power button to turn off the Stylus Scan. After pressing this button, the P power light flashes briefly and then goes off. Do not unplug the Stylus Scan or turn off the power to the outlet until the Ppower light stops flashing.
■Before transporting the Stylus Scan, make sure the print head is in the home (far right) position and the ink cartridges are in place.
■When handling the ink cartridges
■Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children. Do not allow children to drink the ink or otherwise handle the cartridges.
■If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water.
■Do not shake the ink cartridges. Cartridges may leak if shaken.
■Install the ink cartridge immediately after you remove it from its package. Leaving the cartridge unpacked for a long time before use may result in reduced print quality.
■Once you install an ink cartridge, do not open the clamp or remove the cartridge except to replace it with a new one. The cartridge becomes unusable when you open the clamp.
■Do not use an ink cartridge beyond the date printed on the cartridge carton. For best results, use up the ink cartridges within six months of installing them.
■Do not dismantle the ink cartridges or try to refill them. Doing so may damage the print head.
