If you’re printing a document that is longer than 60 pages, you’ll need to print it in sections. For example, if you were printing a
If you’re printing a document with an odd number of pages, make sure you print even numbers of pages for the first sections and an odd number of pages for the last section. That way, if you have a blank page, it will appear at the end of your document.
Removing Jammed Paper
When the S paper out light flashes, you have a paper jam. Press the E load/eject button to try to clear the jam. If that doesn’t work, turn off the printer and gently pull the paper forward (toward the output tray) to pull it out. Don’t pull the paper backward (toward the paper support). Make sure none of the sheets are curled, creased, old, stuck together, or too thin. Then reload the paper against the right edge guide and slide the left edge guide against it. Turn on the printer and press the E load/eject button to resume printing.
Replacing an Ink Cartridge
When the 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. You cannot print if either ink cartridge is empty.
To check the level of ink you have left, see the graphic in the printer driver Properties window (Windows); or click the 
ink level icon in the main printer settings dialog box for your application, or in the EPSON Monitor 3 utility (Macintosh).
Use these EPSON ink cartridges within six months of installing them and before the expiration date on the package:
❏ | Black ink cartridge | T003011 |
❏ | Color ink cartridge | T005011 |
To ensure good results, use genuine EPSON ink cartridges and do not refill them. Other products may cause damage to your printer not covered by EPSON’s warranty.
When you need new ink cartridges, contact your dealer or call the EPSON Store™ at (800)
If you need to replace an ink cartridge before the lights flash (because the ink is too old, for example), see the instructions in “Replacing an Outdated Ink Cartridge” on page 9.
