Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do
not drink the ink.

soap and water. If ink gets in your eyes, flush them
thoroughly with water.

Cleaning the Print Head
If your printouts are unexpectedly light or faint, or dots or
lines are missing from the image, you may need to clean the
print head. This unclogs the nozzles so they can deliver ink
properly. Print head cleaning uses ink, so clean it only if
quality declines.
This section explains how to clean the print head using the
Head Cleaning utility. This is the recommended method
when the printer is connected directly to your computer (not
over a network).
You can also clean the print head by holding down the
b maintenance button on the printer's control panel for three
seconds when the b error light is off. See your on-screen
Reference Guide for detailed instructions.
When you don't turn on your printer for a long time, the
print quality can decline. It's a good idea to turn on your
printer at least once a month to maintain good print
quality.
