Checking the Ink Cartridge Status

Checking the Ink Cartridge Status
When the red
H
ink light starts flashing, one or more cartridges are low on ink and
will need to be replaced soon. When the red
H
ink light stays on, you need to
replace the cartridge(s).
You can also check the ink level using Status Monitor (see the on-screen
User’s
Guide
).
Caution:
You cannot print when an ink cartridge is expended, even if other cartridges are not
expended. Leave the expended cartridge(s) installed until you have obtained a
replacement, or the ink remaining in the print head nozzle may dry out.
A window may appear on your computer screen if you try to print when ink is
low. On a Windows computer that is connected to the Internet, you may see a
screen asking if you want to receive ink offers and other updates from Epson.
