Checking Ink Levels 25
Checking Ink Levels
You can check the ink levels anytime right on the LCD screen. To check the ink levels with 
your Windows or Mac OS X software, see the instructions in your online User’s Guide.
Note: Printing stops when an ink cartridge is expended. If a color cartridge is expended, 
you may be able to continue printing temporarily with black ink; see the online User’s 
Guide for more information. If the black cartridge is expended, you must replace it to 
continue printing.
1. Press   if necessary, then press l or r and select Setup.
2. Select 
Ink Levels. 
The ink cartridge status is displayed. See page 26 to replace a cartridge if necessary.
3. Press 
OK to exit. 
In Windows, a window may appear on your computer screen if you try to print when ink 
is low. This window can optionally display ink offers and other updates from Epson.
Note: To disable checking for ink offers or updates from Epson, see the instructions in 
your online User’s Guide.
