Shaking and Replacing the Ink Cartridges
The pigment particles in the ink cartridges can settle, causing the print quality to decline and the printer
to possibly malfunction.
To maintain print quality, you must do the following:
• Shake the White ink cartridges at the start of every working day
• Shake the color ink cartridges at least once a month.
If an ink cartridge runs out during printing, you can continue printing after replacing the ink cartridge.
However, there may be a slight decline in quality in the area where the cartridge was changed.
Caution: For best results, always use genuine Epson ink cartridges. Epson cannot guarantee the quality
or reliability of non-genuine ink. The use of non-genuine ink may cause damage that is not covered by
Epson's warranties and, under certain circumstances, may cause erratic printer behavior. Information
about non-genuine ink levels may not be displayed, and use of non-genuine ink is recorded for possible
use in service support.
Note: Do not refill the ink.
1. Turn on the printer.
