Always turn the EPSON 1000 ICS off using the POperate button. The POperate 
light flashes briefly and then goes out. Don’t switch off the power strip, or unplug 
the EPSON 1000 ICS until the POperate light is off.
Do not block or cover the openings in the EPSON 1000 ICS’s case or insert objects through the 
slots.
Except as specifically explained in this manual, do not attempt to service the EPSON 1000 ICS 
yourself.
Unplug the EPSON 1000 ICS and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the 
following conditions:
If the power cord or plug is damaged; if liquid has entered the EPSON 1000 ICS; if the EPSON 
1000 ICS has been dropped or the case damaged; if the EPSON 1000 ICS does not operate 
normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. Adjust only those controls that are covered 
by the operating instructions.
Before transporting the EPSON 1000 ICS, make sure the print head is capped in the far right 
position and the ink cartridges are in place. Also make sure the scanner carriage is secured with the 
transportation lock. 
Ink Cartridge Safety Instructions
Leave the ink cartridges installed. Removing the cartridges can dehydrate the print head and may 
prevent the EPSON 1000 ICS from printing. 
Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.
Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges; there may be ink remaining around the ink supply 
port. If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them 
immediately with water.
Do not put your hand inside the EPSON 1000 ICS or touch the cartridge during printing.
Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise you may damage the EPSON 1000 ICS.
Install the ink cartridge immediately after you remove it from its package. Leaving the cartridge 
unpacked for a long time before use may result in reduced print quality.
Do not use an ink cartridge beyond the date printed on the cartridge package. For best results, use 
up the ink cartridges within six months of first installing them.
Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place. Store each ink cartridge so that the bottom of its package 
faces down.
After bringing an ink cartridge inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room 
temperature for at least three hours before using it.
Do not remove or tear the label or shake an ink cartridge; this can cause leakage.
Do not dismantle the ink cartridges or try to refill them. This could result in damage to the print 
head.
Do not touch the green IC chip on the side of the cartridge. This may affect normal operation and 
printing.
