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 product

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. The product ships with full cartridges

and part of the ink from the first cartridges is used for priming the product.

For best printing results, use up a cartridge within six months of opening the package

and before the expiration date on the cartridge box.

Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place. If cartridges have been exposed to cold

temperatures, allow them to warm up to room temperature for at least 3 hours before

using them.

Replacing Ink Cartridges

Make sure you have a new ink cartridge before you begin.

Caution: Do not open ink cartridge packages until you are ready to install the ink.

Cartridges are vacuum packed to maintain reliability.

Leave the expended cartridge installed until you have obtained a replacement, or the

ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out.

Shipments to other locations will be made freight collect. You are responsible for securely packaging

the printer will be repaired and sent back to you. You are responsible for packing the printer and for

all costs to and from the Epson authorized service center. When warranty service involves the

exchange of the printer or a part, the item replaced becomes Epson property. The replacement

may be another model of like kind and quality. Exchange products and parts assume the remaining

warranty period of your original product covered by this limited warranty.

change or fading of prints or reimbursement of materials or services required for reprinting. This

warranty does not cover damage to the Epson product caused by parts or supplies not manufactured,

distributed or certified by Epson. This warranty does not cover ribbons, ink cartridges or third party

parts, components, or peripheral devices added to the Epson product after its shipment from Epson,

should the Epson label or logo or the rating label or serial number be removed or should the product

fail to be properly maintained or fail to function properly as a result of misuse, abuse, improper

installation, neglect, improper shipping, damage caused by disasters such as fire, flood, and
