							Refilling Ink
When ink in an ink tank is low, you need to refill it.
Before checking the ink levels or refilling the ink tank as described here, be sure to read the ink safety

Continued use of the product when the ink level is below the lower line on the tank could damage the
product.

Ink Safety Precautions Ink Handling Precautions
Observe the following when handling the ink:
• Keep ink bottles and the ink tank unit out of the reach of children. Do not allow children to drink from orhandle the ink bottles and bottle caps.
• Do not tilt or shake an ink bottle after removing its seal; otherwise, ink may leak.
Ink Refilling Precautions
• Use ink bottles with the correct part number for this product.
• The use of non-genuine ink may cause damage that is not covered by Epson’s warranty, and under certain circumstances, may cause erratic product behavior.
• This product requires careful handling of ink. Ink may splatter when the ink tanks are filled or refilled with ink. If ink gets on your clothes or belongings, it may not come off.
• Do not open the ink bottle package until you are ready to fill an ink tank. Ink bottles are vacuum packed to maintain reliability. If you leave an ink bottle unpacked for a long time before using it, print
quality may be affected.
• If the ink level is below the lower line on the ink tank, refill the ink soon. Continued use of the product when the ink level is below the lower line on the ink tank could damage the product.

							• Epson recommends filling all ink tanks to the upper line when the product is not operating to reset the
ink levels. If the ink tanks are filled as specified above, this product will provide an alert and stop
operating at the estimated time so that the ink levels do not fall below the lower line on the ink tanks.
• After 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.
• Store ink bottles in a cool, dark place.
• Store the ink bottles in the same environment as the product. When storing or transporting an ink bottle after 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.
Ink Bottle and Ink Tank Information
• To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from all ink tanks during printing and when performing maintenance operations, such as cleaning the print head.
• The ink bottles may contain recycled materials, but this does not affect product function or performance.
• When printing in monochrome or grayscale, color ink may be used, instead of black ink, depending on the paper type or print quality settings. This is because a mixture of color inks is used to create black.

Purchase EPSON Ink You can purchase genuine EPSON ink and paper from an EPSON authorized reseller. To find the
nearest reseller, visit global.latin.epson.com or call your nearest Epson sales office (website available in
Spanish and Portuguese only).
Note: This product was originally designed to work with genuine EPSON inks. Your product may not
function properly if you use other types of ink and may affect Epsons warranty.
The included ink bottles must be used for printer setup and are not for resale. The printer ships with full
ink bottles and part of the ink from the first bottles is used to charge the print head. Yields vary
considerably based on images printed, print settings, paper type, frequency of use, and temperature. For
print quality, a small amount of ink remains in the tank after the refill ink indicator comes on.
The ink bottles that came with your printer have a lower yield due to the ink charging process. This
process is carried out the first time you turn on the printer and guarantees better performance. Do not
load paper before refilling the ink tanks.
