• Never attempt to plug the power cord into the power outlet or unplug the power cord when your  
hands are wet.  
• Never damage, modify, stretch, or excessively bend or twist the power cord. Do not place heavy

Color or Black ink as a printer driver setting. However you must use the printer with both Black  
and Color FINE Cartridges loaded regardless of the printer driver setting.

both Black and Color inks just like the iP2200 and iP1600.
