Replacing Ink Cartridges
For more information on using EPSON Status Monitor, see
“Using EPSON Status Monitor 3” on page 4-4 (Windows) or
“Using EPSON StatusMonitor” on page 6-1 (Macintosh).
Replacing an Old or Damaged Ink Cartridge
In some circumstances, you may need to replace an ink cartridge
before it is empty. For example, if the quality of your printouts
remains poor even after repeatedly cleaning and aligning the
print head, one or both of the ink cartridges may be old or
damaged and should be replaced.
If the
B
black or
A
color ink out light is flashing or is on, replace
the empty ink cartridge as described in “Replacing an Empty Ink
Cartridge” on page 8-1.
To replace an ink cartridge before the
B
black or
A
color ink out
light flashes, follow the instructions in this section.
c
Caution:
❏
Once you remove an ink cartridge from the printer, it
becomes unusable and cannot be reinstalled, even if ink
remains.
❏
Leave the old cartridge installed in the printer until you are
ready to replace it with a new one.
1. Make sure that the printer is on. The
P
power light should be
on, but not flashing.
2. Lower the output tray; then open the printer cover.
