Maintenance 143
Replacing Ink Cartridges
If one of the installed ink cartridges is expended, printing cannot be performed. If an ink low
warning is displayed, we recommend replacing the ink cartridge(s) as soon as possible.
If an ink cartridge runs out while printing, you can continue printing after replacing the ink
cartridge. However, when replacing ink during a print job, you may see a difference in color
depending on the drying conditions.
For a list of supported ink cartridges, see “Options and Consumable Products” on page
176.
The procedure below can also be used to replace cleaning cartridges for print head
washing.

How to replace

You can use the same procedure to replace all ink cartridges.
1. Make sure the printer is on.
2. Lift the lock lever for the cartridge you intend to replace.
Important:
Epson recommends the use of genuine EPSON ink cartridges. Epson cannot guarantee the
quality or reliability of non-genuine ink. The use of non-genuine ink may cause damage that is
not covered by Epson’s warranties, and under certain circumstances, may cause erratic printer
behavior. Information about non-genuine ink levels may not be displayed, and use of
non-genuine ink is recorded for possible use in service support.
