General Product Safety Instructions

Be sure to follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
Use only the type of power source indicated on the product's label.
Use only the power cord that comes with the product. Use of another cord may cause fires or shock. Do not use the cord with any other equipment.
Make sure the AC power cord meets the relevant local safety standard.
Place the product near a wall outlet where the plug can be easily unplugged.
Avoid plugging the product into an outlet on the same circuit as a photo copier or air control system that regularly switches on and off, or on an outlet controlled by a wall switch or timer.
Do not let the power cord become damaged or frayed. Place it to avoid abrasions, cuts, fraying, crimping, and kinking. Do not place objects on top of it and do not allow it to be stepped on or run over. Be careful to keep the cord straight at each end.
If you use an extension cord with the product, make sure the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord's ampere rating. Also, make sure the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet's ampere rating.
Always turn off the product using the power button, and wait until the power light stops flashing before unplugging the product or cutting off power to the electrical outlet.
If you will not be using the product for a long period, unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.
Place the product on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond its base in all directions. It will not operate properly if it is tilted or at an angle.
Make sure the back of the product is at least 4 inches (10 cm) away from the wall.
Allow space behind the product for the cables, and space above the product so that you can fully raise the document cover.
Leave enough space in front of the product for the paper to be fully ejected.
Avoid locations that are subject to rapid changes in heat or humidity, shocks or vibrations, or dust.
Do not place or store the product outdoors.
Do not place the product near excessive heat sources or in direct sunlight.
Leave enough room around the product for sufficient ventilation. Do not block or cover openings in the case or insert objects through the slots.
Keep the product away from potential sources of electromagnetic interference, such as loudspeakers or the base units of cordless telephones.
Keep your product at least 8.7 inches (22 cm) away from cardiac pacemakers to prevent your product's radio waves from affecting the operation of the pacemaker.
When connecting the 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.

Be careful not to trap your fingers when closing the document cover or scanner.
Except as specifically explained in your documentation, do not attempt to service or disassemble the product yourself.
Unplug the product and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: if the power cord or plug is damaged; if liquid has entered the product; if the product has been dropped or the case damaged; if the product does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions.
Leave the ink packs installed. Removing the ink packs can dehydrate the print head and may prevent the product from printing.
Before transporting the product, make sure that the print head is in the home (far right) position.
When storing or transporting the product, do not tilt it, stand it on its side, or turn it upside down; otherwise ink may leak.
