❏For maximum ink efficiency, only remove an ink cartridge when you are ready to replace it.
❏Do not refill the ink cartridges. Other products not manufactured by Epson may cause damage
that is not covered by Epson’s warranties, and under certain circumstances, may cause erratic
product behavior.
❏Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.
❏Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges, as there may be some ink around the ink supply
port. If ink gets on your skin, wash the area thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets into your
eyes, flush them immediately with water. If discomfort or vision problems continue after a
thorough flushing, see a doctor immediately.
❏Epson recommends the use of genuine Epson ink cartridges. The use of non-genuine ink may
cause damage that is not covered by Epson’s warranties, and under certain circumstances, may
cause erratic product behavior. Epson cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-genuine
ink. The ink cartridge status is not displayed when non-genuine ink is used.
❏Do not open the ink cartridge package until you are ready to install it in the product.
❏Use ink cartridges within six months after installing them in the printer.
❏Leave the old cartridge installed in the product until you have obtained a replacement; otherwise,
ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out.
❏You cannot continue printing if any of the ink cartridges has reached its replacement time, even if
the other cartridges still contain ink. Before printing, replace the used cartridge.
❏Do not turn off the product or open the ink cartridge cover while loading ink (On light is flashing).
Opening the covers may cause the ink to reload, resulting in more of the ink being consumed. Also,
normal printing may be disturbed.
❏If the ink cartridge is not recognized even if it is correctly installed, dirt may be attached to the
green IC chip. Remove the cartridge, wipe the IC chip with a soft cloth, and install it again.
❏Color adjustment of the product is based on the use of genuine Epson ink cartridges. Use of
non-genuine ink cartridges may result in reduced print quality and the product performance may
not be optimum.
❏When an Ink light is flashing or lit, the ink cartridge is not correctly installed. Check that it is
installed correctly.
❏If installing an ink cartridge does not provide normal printing, press the Cleaning button for
three seconds. If it does not resolve the problem, repeat the process one or two times.
