Replacing Ink Cartridges 53
Removing and Installing Ink Cartridges
Be sure you have a new ink cartridge before you begin. Once you start replacing a
cartridge, you must complete all the steps in one session.
Caution:
Do not open ink cartridge packages until you are ready to install the ink. Cartridges are
vacuum packed to maintain reliability.
Leave the expended cartridge installed until you have obtained a replacement, or the ink
remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out. To ensure good results, use genuine
Epson ink cartridges and do not refill them. Other products may cause damage to your
printer not covered by Epson’s warranty.
