Replacing Ink Supply Units (Ink Packs) and Maintenance
Boxes
When ink is expended in an ink pack or the maintenance box is at the end of its service life, you need to
replace it. The maintenance box stores ink that gets flushed from the system during print head cleaning.
Note: Please dispose of your used Epson branded ink packs and maintenance boxes responsibly and in
accordance with local requirements.
