Replacing the Photo Cartridge
Replacing the Photo Cartridge
PictureMate uses photo cartridge equipped with an IC
chip. The IC chip accurately monitors the amount of
ink, so even if it is removed and later reinserted, all of
its ink can be used.
w
Warning:
Keep photo cartridges out of the reach of
children. Do not allow children to drink from or
handle the cartridges.
c
Caution:
❏
Epson recommends the use of genuine
Epson photo cartridges. Epson warranties
do not cover damage to your printer
caused by the use of photo cartridges not
manufactured by Epson.
❏
Leave the old cartridge installed in the
printer until you have obtained a
replacement; otherwise, ink remaining in
the print head nozzles may dry out.
❏
Do not refill photo cartridges. The printer
calculates the amount of ink remaining
using an IC chip on the photo cartridge.
Even if the cartridge is refilled, the amount
of ink remaining will not be recalculated by
the IC chip and the amount of ink available
for use will not change.
Note:
In addition to the ink used during an image printing, ink
is consumed during the print head cleaning operation.
