Replacing an Ink Cartridge

When a B black or A color ink out light flashes, the indicated cartridge is low on ink. This is a good time to make sure you have a new cartridge. When the light stays on, the cartridge is empty and you need to replace it.

When you need new ink cartridges, contact your dealer or call EPSON Accessories at (800) 873-7766(U.S. only). In Canada, please call (800) 873-7766for dealer referral.
