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

R4CC820 short.bk Rev. B

SAFE.FM A5 size 7/3/03

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.

R4CC820 short.bk Rev. B

SAFE.FM A5 size 7/3/03

❏ 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:

Proof Sign-off: M.Koike CRE Nakano M.Otsuka editor name

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.

❏ 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.

Proof Sign-off: M.Koike CRE Nakano M.Otsuka editor name

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

❏ Avoid places subject to rapid changes in temperature and

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

❏ Leave enough room around the printer to allow for sufficient

humidity. Also, keep the printer away from direct sunlight, strong light, or heat sources.

ventilation.

easily unplugged.

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.

R4CC820 short.bk Rev. B

SAFE.FM A5 size 7/3/03

❏ 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 any one of 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.

Proof Sign-off: M.Koike CRE Nakano M.Otsuka editor name

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

Loading Memory Cards.

When using LCD panel or the optional Preview Monitor

❏ The LCD panel or optional Preview Monitor may contain a

few small bright or dark spots. These are normal and do not mean that the LCD monitor is damaged in any way.

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

optional Preview Monitor. Do not use liquid or chemical cleansers.

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

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.

Proof Sign-off: M.Koike CRE Nakano M.Otsuka editor name

❏ Do not remove the Preview Monitor slot cover unless you are

When using the optional Bluetooth Photo Print Adapter

Refer to Bluetooth Photo Print Adapter for the safety instructions when using the Bluetooth Adapter.

When handling the ink cartridges

R4CC820 short.bk Rev. B

SAFE.FM A5 size 7/3/03

using the optional Preview Monitor.

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.

R4CC820 short.bk Rev. B

SAFE.FM A5 size 7/3/03

❏ 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.

Proof Sign-off: M.Koike CRE Nakano M.Otsuka editor name

❏ 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.

R4CC820 short.bk Rev. B

DBASE.FM A5 size 7/3/03

Note:

❏ Before printing large jobs, print a single sheet to confirm quality.

❏ Disconnecting the USB cable is recommended when printing

directly from a memory card.

For printing from a computer, double click the ESPR310 Reference Guide icon on the desktop.

Loading Single Sheets of Paper

Follow the steps below to load paper into the printer.

1. Open the paper support, then slide out the extension.

2. Lower the output tray and slide out the extension.

R4CC820 short.bk Rev. B

DBASE.FM A5 size 7/3/03

4. Fan a stack of plain paper, then tap it on a flat surface to even the edges.

5. Load the paper with the printable side up so it is against the right edge guide, and slide it into the sheet feeder. Then slide the left edge guide against the left edge of the paper. Make sure that the paper stack is loaded under the tabs inside the edge guides.
