6Using the Printer Rev. C | Epson TM-C100 instruction

4.Remove the new ink cartridge from its box and open the transparent plastic bag.

Note:

Install the ink cartridge in the printer promptly after opening the plastic bag.

If an opened cartridge is left out of its plastic bag for an extended period of time, print quality may be adversely affected.

5.Insert the ink cartridge into the top of the ink cartridge holder in the printer. Make sure the ink cartridge is facing the right way.

Note:

Also see the label on the underside of the printer cover.

6.Push the ink cartridge down gently until it clicks firmly into place.

7.Close the printer cover (the INK LED goes off).

Note:

The printer starts the ink replacement sequence automatically for about 1 minute. During the ink replacement sequence the POWER LED flashes. When the ink replacement sequence is finished, the POWER LED stops flashing, and the printer is ready for printing.

Do not turn off the printer or open the printer cover during the ink replacement sequence (the POWER LED is flashing). If you do so, the printer must perform the ink replacement sequence again from the start. This will waste ink.
