What safety precautions should I follow when handling ink cartridges?

Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not disassemble them, as ink may get into your eyes or on your skin. If ink gets on your skin, wash thoroughly with soap and water; if ink gets into your eyes, flush immediately with water and see a doctor if discomfort continues; if ink gets into your mouth, see a doctor right away. Do not shake cartridges too vigorously, drop them, squeeze them, or tear their labels, as this may cause ink leakage. (Page 9)
