and the safety instructions in the online User’s Guide.
Choose a Location for the Printer
Choose a location for the printer that is near a wall outlet where the power cord
can be easily unplugged. Avoid places subject to rapid changes in temperature
and humidity. Also keep the printer away from direct sunlight, strong light, or
heat sources.
Make sure to place the printer on a flat, stable surface with enough space on all
sides (see illustration below). The surface supporting the printer should be wider
than the space between the rubber feet on the bottom of the printer and capable
of supporting the weight shown below.

upper line.
Note:
If ink does not flow from the bottle, lift and reinsert the bottle.
Caution:
After setup, periodically inspect the ink level to ensure it is not
below the lowest line on the tank. Prolonged use when ink is below the lowest
line could damage the product. See the online
User's Guide
for refilling
instructions.
