❏
Do not touch the openings in the maintenance box as you may get smeared with ink.
❏
Do not reuse a maintenance box which has been removed and left detached for a long period. Ink inside the box
will have solidified and no more ink can be absorbed.
❏
Keep the maintenance box out of direct sunlight.
❏
Do not store the maintenance box in high or freezing temperatures.
Replacing a Maintenance Box
In some print cycles a very small amount of surplus ink may be collected in the maintenance box. To prevent ink
leakage from the maintenance box, the printer is designed to stop printing when the absorbing capacity of the
maintenance box has reached its limit. Whether and how often this is required will vary according to the number
of pages you print, the type of material that you print and the number of cleaning cycles that the printer performs.
When a message is displayed prompting you to replace the maintenance box, refer to the animations displayed on
the control panel. The need for replacement of the box does not mean that your printer has ceased to operate in
accordance with its specifications. The Epson warranty does not cover the cost of this replacement. It is a user-
serviceable part.
Note:
❏
When the maintenance box is full, you cannot print and clean the print head until it is replaced to avoid ink leakage.
However, you can perform operations that do not use ink such as scanning.
❏
When the following screen is displayed, the part cannot be replaced by users. Contact Epson support.
Borderless printing is not available, but printing with a border is available.
