							91 Handling the BJ cartridge _______________________
•Leave the BJ cartridge in its packaging until you are ready to use it to prevent it from
drying out.
•Store BJ cartridges out of the reach of children; the ink contains isopropyl alcohol
67-63-0.
•Replace the BJ cartridge after one year of use or if the print is not clear or is missing,
even after trying five successive head cleanings.
•Never remove the BJ cartridge unless you are going to replace it. When left ex-
posed, the cartridge print head dries out, making it unusable.•Do not touch the print head area on the
BJ cartridge. Ink may leak out and cause
stains.•Never shake the BJ cartridge, especially
after removing the protective tape from
the print head.
If spilled, the ink is very difficult to clean. Therefore, always follow the above precau-
tions and carefully handle the BJ cartridge.Installing the BJ cartridge

how you plan to use your FAXPHONE:
zAre you able to dedicate the use of one telephone line to the FAXPHONE only to
receive document transmissions from other fax machines? If yes, choose Fax Only
Mode (see below).
zDo you want to use your FAXPHONE as both a telephone and fax, receiving docu-
ments automatically and ringing only for telephone calls? If yes, choose Fax/Tel
Mode (see below).zDo you want to use your FAXPHONE mainly as a telephone, and answer every call
yourself, whether from a person or a fax unit? If yes, choose Manual Mode (see below).zDo you want to connect an answering machine to your FAXPHONE and receive the
other party’s document and also record the other party’s message? If yes, choose
Ans. Machine mode (see below).
zCan you use the Distinctive Ring Pattern (DRP) service offered by your telephone
company allowing you to have separate numbers for telephone and fax using only
one phone line? If yes, use the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) Feature
(see below).
How you answer these questions will determine which receiving method you choose.
