Installing/Replacing the Ink Cartridge
CAUTION:
When the ink cartridge is installed for the first time:
❏
Be sure to install the roll paper before installing the ink cartridge. For
details on how to install the roll paper, see “Installing/Replacing
Paper” on page 13.
❏
When you install continuous paper, about 40 inches of paper is fed
and the printer enters the error state right after the printer is turned
on. In that case, turn off the printer, and then turn it back on.
Always use the EPSON SJIC15P as the ink cartridge.
Do not open the ink cartridge package until you are ready to install it in
the printer.
Do not remove the ink cartridge from the printer when you ship it.
1. Turn on the printer and make sure that the Ink LED lights.
2. Pull the ink cartridge cover to open it.
3. Remove the used cartridge, if any.
4. Shake the ink cartridge package 4 or 5 times before opening it.
5. Push the ink cartridge gently into the cartridge holder as shown
below.
6. Close the ink cartridge cover.
When the ink cartridge is installed for the first time, the printer
takes approximately 8 minutes for ink charging. The Power LED
flashes during ink charging.
CAUTION:
Do not turn off the printer or open the roll paper cover or the ink
cartridge cover during ink charging.
When ink charging finishes, the Power LED stays on after flashing.
