Epson CX7000F Removing and Installing Ink Cartridges

Epson Stylus CX7000F Series

Note:

You’ll also see a low ink or cartridge replacement message on your computer screen when you print from your computer.

If a cartridge is more than six months old, print quality may decline. If necessary, try cleaning the print head (see page 15). If printouts still do not look their best, you may need to replace the cartridge.

Removing and Installing Ink Cartridges

Note:

Leave the expended cartridge installed until you have obtained a replacement or the ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out.

Make sure you have a new ink cartridge before you begin. Once you start replacing a cartridge, you must complete all the steps in one session.

Do not open ink cartridge packages until you are ready to install the ink. Cartridges are vacuum packed to maintain reliability.

If you remove a cartridge that is low (for which you have received an “Ink low” message), you cannot reuse it.
