If such an object is brought into contact with the electrical parts inside the printer, this could cause

a fire or electrical shock. If an object enters the inside of the printer, turn the printer off immediately,

disconnect the power plug from the power outlet and contact your place of purchase.

• The electrical contacts inside the printer become extremely hot during normal operation. To avoid

causing a fire, never store flammable substances like alcohol, thinner, etc. near the printer.

- A damp or dusty location.

- A location exposed to oily smoke or steam; e.g., near a countertop or humidifier.

- A location exposed to rain or snow.

- A location exposed to salty wind.

- A location subject to high temperatures.

- A location near open flames.

• Do not place the printer in an unstable location; e.g., on a wobbling or inclined table, or a location

subject to frequent vibrations. The printer could fall down or fall over, resulting in personal injury.

• Never place the printer where it will be exposed to rapid changes in temperature, such as in direct

sunlight, near an air conditioner, or in a car on a hot day. This could cause a fire or damage to the printer.

• Cyan ink may be absorbed in the ink absorber (A) inside the

transport unit. This is due to ink used in the manufacturing

process and does not signify a printer problem.

produced during printing in an ink absorber. As you use the

printer, ink will gradually adhere to the ink absorber.
