Caution:

This product requires careful handling of ink. If ink spills,

wipe it off immediately with a damp towel to avoid permanent stains.
If ink gets on your clothes or belongings, it may not come off.

Note:

• Epson cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of third-party ink.

filled to the upper line. If ink does
not flow from the bottle, lift and
reinsert the bottle.

Caution:

After setup, periodically

inspect the ink level to ensure it
is not below the lowest line on
the tank. Prolonged use when

instructions.
