The Epson Stylus Pro 4900 requires little maintenance to keep working at its
best. This chapter describes the following routine procedures:

Checking printer status and part life

Checking and cleaning the print head

Aligning the print head

Replacing ink cartridges

Changing the black ink cartridge

Replacing the paper cutter blade

Replacing the maintenance tanks

Cleaning the printer

Transporting or storing the printer

In addition to the features described in this chapter, you can also use the
menu system on the printer to fine-tune a variety of printer settings.

Alert Lamp

The Epson Stylus Pro 4900 is equipped with an alert lamp which
automatically lights or flashes when an error or warning occurs. You can set
or change the alert lamp settings in maintenance mode. (The default setting
is “Disable”.)

Checking Printer Status and Part Life

Using the menus, you can check the amount of ink remaining, the total
number of prints, and the status of your cutter blade, maintenance tank(s),
and other printer parts. You can either print out a status check (described in
the next section), or you can view the printer’s status on the LCD screen.
