Purchase EPSON Ink Cartridges
You can purchase genuine EPSON ink and paper at EPSON Supplies Central at www.epson.com/ink3
(U.S. sales) or www.epson.ca (Canadian sales). You can also purchase supplies from an EPSON
authorized reseller. To find the nearest one, call 800-GO-EPSON (800-463-7766).
Note: We recommend that you use genuine EPSON cartridges and do not refill them. The use of other
products may affect your print quality and could result in printer damage.
The cartridges included with the printer are designed for printer set up and not for resale. After some ink
is used for priming, the rest is available for printing. Yields vary considerably based on images printed,
print settings, paper type, frequency of use, and temperature. For print quality, a variable amount of ink
remains in the cartridge after the "replace cartridge" indicator comes on.
