Dell Ink Management System

Each time you print a job, a printing progress screen appears, which shows the progress of the print job as well as the amount of ink remaining and the approximate number of pages remaining in the cartridge. The page counter is hidden during the first 50 pages of cartridge use, until printing habits are learned and a more accurate count can be given. The number of pages remaining changes as a result of the type of print jobs the printer completes.

When your ink cartridge levels are low, a Low Ink Warning appears on your screen when you try to print. This warning is displayed every time you print until you install a new ink cartridge. For more information on replacing ink cartridges, see "Replacing Ink Cartridges" on page 71.


When one or both of your ink cartridges are empty, the Reserve Tank window appears on your screen when you try to print. If you continue printing, the print job may not print as you expect.

If your black ink cartridge is out of ink, you can choose to print black from the color ink cartridge

(Process Black) by selecting Complete-A-Print before clicking the Continue Printing button. If you select Complete-A-Print, and click Continue Printing, Process Black is used for all black printing until the black cartridge is replaced, or the option is cleared from More Options, located on the Advanced tab of the Printing Preferences. The Reserve Tank dialog does not display again until after the low ink cartridge has been replaced. The Complete-A-Print check box is automatically reset when a new or different cartridge is installed.

If your color ink cartridge is out of ink, you can choose to print color documents in grayscale by selecting Complete-A-Print before clicking the Continue Printing button. If you select

Complete-A-Print, and click Continue Printing, all color documents will print in black and white until the color cartridge is replaced, or the option is cleared from More Options, located on the Advanced tab of the Printing Preferences. The Reserve Tank dialog does not display again until after the low ink cartridge has been replaced. The Complete-A-Print check box is automatically reset when a new or different cartridge is installed.

Your order is subject to cancellation by Dell, at Dell's sole discretion. Unless you and Dell have agreed to a different discount, Dell's standard pricing policy for

Dell™-branded systems, which include both hardware and services in one discounted price, allocates the discount off list price applicable to the service portion of the system to be equal to the overall calculated percentage discount off list price on the entire system.

This limited warranty does not apply to ink or toner cartridges that have been refilled or improperly stored or due to problems resulting from misuse, abuse, accident, neglect, mishandling, incorrect environments, or wear from ordinary use.

THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS

WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO STATE (OR JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION). DELL’S RESPONSIBILITY

FOR MALFUNCTIONS AND DEFECTS IN HARDWARE IS LIMITED TO REPLACEMENT AS SET FORTH IN

THIS WARRANTY STATEMENT. FOR CANADIAN CUSTOMERS, EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES

CONTAINED IN THIS WARRANTY STATEMENT, DELL DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND

A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE LIMITED IN TIME TO THE TERM OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. NO

IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, OR LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY OR

CONDITION LASTS, SO THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. THIS WARRANTY COVERAGE

TERMINATES IF YOU SELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS PRODUCT TO ANOTHER PARTY.

DELL DOES NOT ACCEPT LIABILITY BEYOND THE REMEDIES PROVIDED FOR IN THIS LIMITED

WARRANTY OR FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING,

WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY LIABILITY FOR THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES, FOR

PRODUCTS NOT BEING AVAILABLE FOR USE, OR FOR LOST DATA OR LOST SOFTWARE. DELL’S

to, or utilized by an end-user engaged in activities related to weapons of mass destruction, including without limitation, activities related to the design, development, production or use of nuclear weapons, materials, or facilities, missiles or the support of missile projects, and chemical or biological weapons.

Dell™ Software License Agreement

This is a legal agreement between you, the user, and Dell Products, L.P ("Dell"). This agreement covers all software that is distributed with the Dell product, for which there is no separate license agreement between you and the manufacturer or owner of the software (collectively the "Software"). This agreement is not for the sale of Software or any other intellectual property. All title and intellectual property rights in and to Software is owned by the manufacturer or owner of the Software. All rights not expressly granted under this agreement are reserved by the manufacturer or owner of the

Software. By opening or breaking the seal on the Software packet(s), installing or downloading the Software, or using the

Software that has been preloaded or is embedded in your product, you agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement.

If you do not agree to these terms, promptly return all Software items (disks, written materials, and packaging) and delete any preloaded or embedded Software.

You may use one copy of the Software on only one product at a time. If you have multiple licenses for the Software, you may use as many copies at any time as you have licenses. "Use" means loading the Software in temporary memory or permanent storage on the product. Installation on a network server solely for distribution to other products is not "use" if (but only if) you have a separate license for each product to which the Software is distributed. You must ensure that the number of persons using the Software installed on a network server does not exceed the number of licenses that you have. If the number of users of Software installed on a network server will exceed the number of licenses, you must purchase additional licenses until the number of licenses equals the number of users before allowing additional users to use the Software. If you are a commercial customer of Dell or a Dell affiliate, you hereby grant Dell, or an agent selected by Dell, the right to perform an audit of your use of the Software during normal business hours, you agree to cooperate with Dell in such audit, and you agree to provide Dell with all records reasonably related to your use of the Software. The audit will be limited to verification of your compliance with the terms of this agreement.

The Software is protected by United States copyright laws and international treaties. You may make one copy of the

Software solely for backup or archival purposes or transfer it to a single hard disk provided you keep the original solely for backup or archival purposes. You may not rent or lease the Software or copy the written materials accompanying the

Software, but you may transfer the Software and all accompanying materials on a permanent basis as part of a sale or transfer of the Dell product if you retain no copies and the recipient agrees to the terms hereof. Any transfer must include the most recent update and all prior versions. You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the

Software. If the package accompanying your product contains compact discs, 3.5", and/or 5.25" disks, you may use only the disks appropriate for your product. You may not use the disks on another computer or network, or loan, rent, lease, or transfer them to another user except as permitted by this agreement.

Limited Warranty

Dell warrants that the Software disks will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use for ninety (90) days from the date you receive them. This warranty is limited to you and is not transferable. Any implied warranties are limited to ninety (90) days from the date you receive the Software. Some jurisdictions do not allow limits on the duration of an implied warranty, so this limitation may not apply to you. The entire liability of Dell and its suppliers, and your exclusive remedy, shall be (a) return of the price paid for the Software or (b) replacement of any disk not meeting this warranty that is sent with a return authorization number to Dell, at your cost and risk. This limited warranty is void if any disk damage has resulted from accident, abuse, misapplication, or service or modification by someone other than Dell. Any replacement disk is warranted for the remaining original warranty period or thirty

(30) days, whichever is longer.

Appendix

113

114

Dell does NOT warrant that the functions of the Software will meet your requirements or that operation of the Software will be uninterrupted or error free. You assume responsibility for selecting the Software to achieve your intended results and for the use and results obtained from the Software.

DELL, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS SUPPLIERS, DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR

IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND

FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, FOR THE SOFTWARE AND ALL ACCOMPANYING WRITTEN

MATERIALS. This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights; you may have others, which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

IN NO EVENT SHALL DELL OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER

(INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS

INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, OR OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS) ARISING OUT OF

USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH

DAMAGES. Because some jurisdictions do not allow an exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, the above limitation may not apply to you.

U.S. Government Restricted Rights

Regulatory Notices

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is any signal or emission, radiated in free space or conducted along power or signal leads, that endangers the functioning of a radio navigation or other safety service or seriously degrades, obstructs, or repeatedly interrupts a licensed radio communications service. Radio communications services include but are not limited to AM/FM commercial broadcast, television, cellular services, radar, air-traffic control, pager, and Personal

Communication Services (PCS). These licensed services, along with unintentional radiators such as digital devices, including computers, contribute to the electromagnetic environment.

Electromagnetic Compatibility is the ability of items of electronic equipment to function properly together in the electronic environment. While this product has been designed and determined to be compliant with regulatory agency limits for EMI, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference with radio communications services, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, you are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Appendix

• Reorient the receiving antenna.

• Relocate the product with respect to the receiver.

• Move the product away from the receiver.

• Plug the product into a different outlet so that the product and the receiver are on different branch circuits.

If necessary, consult a Dell Technical Support representative or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions.

Dell™ products are designed, tested, and classified for their intended electromagnetic environment. These electromagnetic environment classifications generally refer to the following harmonized definitions:

• Class A is typically for business or industrial environments.

• Class B is typically for residential environments.

Information Technology Equipment (ITE), including devices, expansion cards, printers, input/output (I/O) devices, monitors, and so on, that are integrated into or connected to the product should match the electromagnetic environment classification of the product.

A Notice About Shielded Signal Cables: Use only shielded cables for connecting devices to any Dell device to reduce the possibility of interference with radio communications services. Using shielded cables ensures that you maintain the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility classification for the intended environment. For parallel printers, a cable is available from Dell. If you prefer, you can order a cable from Dell on the World Wide Web at www.dell.com/supplies.

Most Dell products are classified for Class B environments. However, the inclusion of certain options may change the rating of some configurations to Class A. To determine the electromagnetic classification for your computer or device, see the following sections specific for each regulatory agency. Each section provides country-specific Electromagnetic

Compatibility/EMI, telecommunications, wireless, or product safety information.
