Replacing the Ink Cartridge

When the display reads IL, the ink low message, there is enough ink left in the cartridge to print only about 20 letter size pages. When the cartridge is completely out of ink, the display reads 1E, the ink empty message, and the printer goes off line. Then you cannot set the printer back on line until you replace the ink cartridge.

When the ink low message first appears, make sure you have a new ink cartridge and be ready to replace the old one when it runs out. Always use the Epson S020003 ink cartridge in the EPI-4000. It is the only ink cartridge the EPI-4000 can use. A-new ink cartridge contains enough ink to print 1000 average letter-size or A4 pages. (Pages with dense text or graphics use more ink.)

WARNING: Please take the following precautions when you handle ink cartridges for the EPI-4000:

Avoid allowing the ink to contact skin or eyes. If ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water. After you handle an ink cartridge, thoroughly wash any traces of ink from your skin with soap and water.

Do not take apart ink cartridges.

Keep ink cartridges out of reach of children.

Follow these steps to replace the ink cartridge:

1.Make sure the printer is off line.

WARNING; Never remove or install an ink cartridge when

the printer. Before you remove or install an ink cartridge, always set the printer off line so that the print

head is capped at the left side of the printer.
