Refilling Ink

When the ink level is below the lower line on an ink tank, you need to refill it.

Before checking the ink level or refilling an ink tank as described here, be sure to read the ink safety
precautions.

Caution:

If the ink level is below the lower line on the ink tank, fill it to the upper line on the ink tank.

Continued use of the product when the ink level is below the lower line on the tank could damage the
product.

Ink Safety Precautions

Ink Handling Precautions

• Keep ink bottles and the ink tank unit out of the reach of children. Do not allow children to drink from or

handle the ink bottles and bottle caps.

• Do not tilt or shake an ink bottle after opening it; otherwise, ink may leak.

• If ink gets on your skin, wash it thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets into your eyes, flush them

immediately with water. If ink gets into your mouth, spit it out immediately.

Ink Refilling Precautions

• Use ink bottles with the correct part number for this product.

• The use of non-Epson ink may cause damage that is not covered by Epson’s warranty, and under

certain circumstances, may cause erratic product behavior.

• This product requires careful handling of ink. Ink may splatter when the ink tanks are filled or refilled

with ink. If ink gets on your clothes or belongings, it may not come off.

• Do not open the ink bottle package until you are ready to fill an ink tank. Ink bottles are vacuum

packed to maintain reliability. If you leave an ink bottle unpacked for a long time before using it, print
quality may be affected.
