Caution:
• This product requires careful handling of ink. If ink spills, wipe it off
immediately with a damp towel to avoid permanent stains. If ink
gets on your clothes or belongings, it may not come off.
• 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 warranty.

product. Part of the ink will be used to charge the print head. These
bottles may print fewer pages compared with subsequent ink bottles.
