							Important•When  handling  the  Printhead,  always  hold  it  by  the  grips  (a).  Never  touch  the  nozzles  (b)  or  metal
contacts (c). This may damage the Printhead and affect printing quality.
• Never touch the ink supply section (d). This may cause printing problems.
•If you need to put a Printhead somewhere temporarily before installation, do not keep the nozzles and
metal  contacts  facing  down.  If  the  nozzles  or  metal  contacts  are  damaged,  it  may  affect  the  printing
quality.
9. While firmly holding the Printhead you have removed, use your other hand to remove the orange Protective Part (a).
Squeeze the grips (c) of Protective Part (b) and pull it down to remove it.
Important• The  inside  surface  of  the  Protective  Part  (a)  and  Protective  Part  (b)  is  coated  with  ink  to  protect  the
nozzles. Be careful not to touch these surfaces when removing the caps.
• The Printhead contains ink to protect the nozzles. We recommend removing Protective Part (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  Protective  Part  or  protective  material.  Dispose  of  these  materials  in  accordance
with local regulations.
