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.
❏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

Handling precautions for replacing ink cartridges
❏Do not touch the sections shown in the illustration. Doing so may prevent normal operation and printing.
❏Install all ink cartridges; otherwise you cannot print.
❏Do not replace ink cartridges with the power o. Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise, you may
damage the printer.
❏Aer installing the ink cartridge, the power light continues to ash while the printer is charging ink. Do not

replacement. Otherwise, ink remaining in the print head nozzles will dry out and you may not be able to print.
❏Be careful not to let dust or any objects get inside the ink cartridge holder. Anything inside the holder may
adversely aect the printing results or result in an inability to print. If anything gets inside the holder, remove it
carefully.
❏If you remove the cartridge from the printer for later use or to dispose of it, make sure you put the cap back on
the cartridge’s ink supply port to prevent ink from drying out or to prevent surrounding areas from getting
smeared by ink.
❏If you remove an ink cartridge from the printer for later use, Epson recommends using it up as soon as possible.
❏is printer uses ink cartridges equipped with a green chip that monitors information such as the amount of
remaining ink for each cartridge. is means that even if the cartridge is removed from the printer before it is
expended, you can still use the cartridge aer reinserting it back into the printer. However, when reinserting a
cartridge, some ink may be consumed to guarantee printer performance.
❏For maximum ink eciency, only remove an ink cartridge when you are ready to replace it. Ink cartridges with
low ink status may not be used when reinserted.
❏To ensure you receive premium print quality and to help protect your print head, a variable ink safety reserve
remains in the cartridge when your printer indicates to replace the cartridge. e yields quoted for you do not
include this reserve.

❏Finish ink cartridge replacement promptly. Do not leave the printer with the ink cartridges removed.
Consumption of ink
❏To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from all cartridges during maintenance
operations. Ink may also be consumed when you replace ink cartridges or turn the printer on.
❏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 cartridges 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 cartridges may print fewer pages compared to subsequent ink
cartridges.
❏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.
