Ink Cartridge Safety Instructions - Epson Stylus Photo 2000P Printer Basics Manual

Place the printer near a wall outlet where the plug can be easily unplugged.
Do not let the power cord become damaged or frayed.
If you use an extension cord with the printer, 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.
Turn off and unplug the printer before cleaning. Clean with a damp cloth only. Do not spill liquid
on the printer.
Always turn the printer off using the Ppower button. Don't switch off the power
strip or unplug the printer until the Ppower light is off.
Do not block or cover the openings in the printer's case or insert objects through the slots.
Except as specifically explained in this manual, do not attempt to service the printer yourself.
Unplug the printer and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following
conditions:
If the power cord or plug is damaged; if liquid has entered the printer; if the printer has been
dropped or the case damaged; if the printer does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change
in performance. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions.

Ink Cartridge Safety Instructions

Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.
Do not shake an ink cartridge; this can cause leakage.
If ink gets on your skin, wash the area thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets in your eyes,
flush them immediately with water.
Install the ink cartridge immediately after you remove it from its foil package. If you leave a
cartridge unpacked for a long time before using it, normal printing may not be possible.
Do not dismantle the ink cartridges. This could damage the print head.
Do not touch the green chip on the back of the cartridge. This may inhibit normal operation and
printing.
In these ink cartridges, the IC chip retains a variety of cartridge-related information (such as the
amount of ink remaining) so that a 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, be sure to protect the ink supply area from dirt and
dust, and store it in the same environment as the printer. Note that there is a valve in the ink
supply port, making covers or plugs unnecessary, but care is needed to prevent the ink from
staining items that the cartridge touches. Do not touch the ink cartridge ink supply port or the
surrounding area.
