Important • The inside surfaces of Safety Cap 1 (a) and Safety Cap 2 (b) are coated with ink to protect the noz- zles. Be careful not to touch these surfaces when removing the caps. • Never touch the ink supply section (d). This may cause printing problems. • The Printhead contains ink to protect the nozzles. We recommend removing Safety Cap 2 (b) as you hold it over the Printhead package or safely out of the way to avoid spilling ink and staining your clothes or the surrounding area. If ink accidentally spills, wipe off the ink with a dry cloth. • Do not reattach the Safety Cap or protective material. Dispose of these materials in accordance with local regulations. 15.
