Replacing Ink Cartridges 126
n Use ink cartridges within six months after opening the packages.
n Leave the old cartridge installed in the product until you have obtained a replacement;
otherwise, ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out.
n You cannot continue printing with an ink cartridge after it has reached its replacement time,
even if the other cartridges still contain ink. Before printing, replace the used cartridge.
n Do not turn off the product or open the ink cartridge cover while loading ink (Power light is
flashing). Opening of covers may cause the ink to reload, resulting in more of the ink being
consumed. Also, normal printing may be disturbed.
n If the ink cartridge is not recognized even if it is correctly installed, dirt may be attached to
the green circuit board. Remove the cartridge, wipe the circuit board with a soft cloth, and
install it again.
n Color adjustment of the product is based on the use of genuine Epson ink cartridges. Use of
non-genuine ink cartridges may result in reduced print quality and the product performance
may not be optimum.
n When the Ink lamp is flashing or lit, the ink cartridge is not correctly installed. Check that it is
installed correctly.
n If installing an ink cartridge does not provide normal printing, press the Cleaning button for
3 seconds. If it does not resolve the problem, repeat the process for 1 or 2 times.
n By turning off the product using the Power button, print head is automatically covered to
prevent ink from drying. When not in use after installing ink cartridges, make sure to turn off
using the Power button. Do not unplug the power cord or shut down the breaker while the
power is on.
n When moving or transporting the product after installing ink cartridges, move or transport
with ink cartridges installed.
