Replacing Ink Cartridges
Before you begin a large print job, you should check your ink levels. If one of
your cartridges is low, you can replace it before you start. Or you can wait
until the ink is expended, replace the cartridge, and then continue the job
without any loss of print quality. However, it is best to replace a low ink
cartridge before starting a large print job.
The easiest way to check ink levels is from the control panel LCD screen.
The numbers above the ink icons on the LCD screen correspond to the
9 ink cartridge slots on the printer.
The icons show the approximate amount of ink remaining.
When the red B Ink
Check light is flashing and INK LOW appears on the
LCD screen, the indicated cartridge is almost expended. Make sure you have
a replacement cartridge. When the light stays on and

CARTRIDGE
is displayed, the cartridge is expended. You must replace the
cartridge before you can continue printing.

Tip: You can store
partially used ink
cartridges for up to
6 months. If you do so,
Epson recommends
covering the openings
with tape.
Note: We recommend
that you use genuine
Epson cartridges and do
not refill them. The use of
other products may affect
your print quality and
could result in printer
damage.
Yields vary considerably
based on images printed,
print settings, paper type,
frequency of use, and
temperature. For print
quality, a small amount of
ink remains in the
cartridge after the
“replace cartridge”
indicator comes on.
For best printing results,
use up a cartridge within
six months of opening the
package.
