Paper Handling Precautions
❏Read the instruction sheets supplied with the paper.
❏Fan and align the edges of the paper before loading. Do not fan or curl photo paper. Doing so may damage the
printable side.
❏If the paper is curled, atten it or curl it slightly in the opposite direction before loading. Printing on curled
paper may cause paper jams and smears on the printout.
❏Do not use paper that is wavy, torn, cut, folded, damp, too thick, too thin, or paper that has stickers stuck to it.
Using these types of paper causes paper jams and smears on the printout.
❏Make sure you are using long-grain paper. If you are not sure what type of paper you are using, check the paper
packaging or contact the manufacturer to conrm the paper specications.
❏Fan and align the edges of the envelopes before loading. When the stacked envelopes are pued up with air,
press them down to atten them before loading.
❏Do not use envelopes that are curled or folded. Using these envelopes causes paper jams and smears on the
printout.
❏Do not use envelopes with adhesive surfaces on the aps or window envelopes.
❏Avoid using envelopes that are too thin, as they may curl during printing.

Ink Bottle Handling Precautions
Read the following instructions before relling ink.
Handling precautions
❏Use ink bottles with the correct part code for this printer.
❏is printer requires careful handling of ink. Ink may splatter when the ink tanks are lled or relled with ink.
If ink gets on your clothes or belongings, it may not come o.
❏Store ink bottles at normal room temperature and keep them away from direct sunlight.
❏Epson recommends using the ink bottle before the date printed on the package.
❏Store the ink bottles in the same environment as the printer.
❏When storing or transporting an ink bottle aer removing its seal, do not tilt the bottle and do not subject it to
impacts or temperature changes. Otherwise, ink may leak even if the cap on the ink bottle is tightened securely.
Be sure to keep the ink bottle upright when tightening the cap, and take measures to prevent ink from leaking
when you transport the bottle.
❏Aer bringing an ink bottle inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room temperature for at least
three hours before using it.
❏Do not open the ink bottle package until you are ready to ll the ink tank. e ink bottle is vacuum packed to
maintain its reliability. If you leave an ink bottle unpacked for a long time before using it, normal printing may
not be possible.
User's Guide
Relling Ink and Replacing Maintenance Boxes
132
❏Visually check ink levels in the actual ink tanks. Continued use of the printer when the ink is expended could
damage the printer. Epson recommends lling the ink tank to the upper line when the printer is not operating
to reset the ink level.
❏To ensure you receive premium print quality and to help protect your print head, a variable ink safety reserve
remains in the ink tank when your printer indicates to rell ink. e yields quoted for you do not include this
reserve.
❏To obtain optimum printing results, rell the ink tanks to the upper line at least once every year.
❏Although the ink bottles may contain recycled materials, this does not aect printer function or performance.
❏Specications and appearance of the ink bottle are subject to change without prior notice for improvement.
❏Quoted yields may vary depending on the images that you are printing, the paper type that you are using, the
frequency of your prints and environmental conditions such as temperature.
Ink consumption
❏To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from all ink tanks not only during
printing but also during maintenance operation such as print head cleaning.
❏When printing in monochrome or grayscale, color inks instead of black ink may be used depending on the
paper type or print quality settings. is is because a mixture of color inks is used to create black.
❏e ink in the ink bottles supplied with your printer is partly used during initial setup. In order to produce high
quality printouts, the print head in your printer will be fully charged with ink. is one-o process consumes a
quantity of ink and therefore these bottles may print fewer pages compared to subsequent ink bottles.
Relling the Ink Tanks
1. Enter Setup from the home screen.
2. Select Maintenance > Reset Ink Levels.
3. Press Proceed.
4. Open the ink tank unit cover, and then remove the cap of the ink tank. Aer removing the cap, place it on the

Replacing a Maintenance Box
In some print cycles a very small amount of surplus ink may be collected in the maintenance box. To prevent ink
leakage from the maintenance box, the printer is designed to stop printing when the absorbing capacity of the
maintenance box has reached its limit. Whether and how oen this is required will vary according to the number
of pages you print, the type of material that you print and the number of cleaning cycles that the printer performs.
Replace the maintenance box when you are promoted to do so. e Epson Status Monitor, your LCD, or lights on
the control panel will advise you when this part needs replacing. e need for replacement of the box does not
mean that your printer has ceased to operate in accordance with its specications. e Epson warranty does not
cover the cost of this replacement. It is a user-serviceable part.
Note:
When it is full, you cannot print until the maintenance box is replaced to avoid ink leakage. However, you can perform
operations such as sending faxes and saving data to an external USB device.
1. Remove the new maintenance box from its package.
