cCaution:
❏EPSON recommends the use of genuine EPSON ink
cartridges. Other products not manufactured by EPSON
may cause damage to your printer not covered by EPSON's
warranties.
❏Leave the old cartridge installed in the printer until you have
obtained a replacement, or ink remaining in the print head
nozzles may dry out.
❏Do not refill the ink cartridges. The printer calculates the
amount of ink remaining using an IC chip on the ink
cartridge. Even if the cartridge is refilled, the amount of ink
remaining will not be recalculated by the IC chip and the
amount of ink available for use will not change.
Note:
❏You cannot continue printing with one ink cartridge empty, even if
the other cartridge still contains ink. Before printing, replace the
empty cartridge.
❏In addition to the ink used during document printing, ink is
consumed during the print head cleaning operation, during the
self-cleaning cycle which is performed when the printer is turned
on, and during ink charging when the ink cartridge is installed in
the printer.
❏If you replace the ink cartridges while the roll paper is loaded, the
media may be smeared.
For more information about ink cartridges, see “When handling
the ink cartridges” on page 8.
