Epson NX100 Quick Guide - Page 23

Note: We recommend that you use genuine Epson cartridges and do not refill them. The use of other products may affect your print quality and could result in printer damage. The printer ships with full cartridges and part of the ink from this first set of cartridges is used for priming the printer. 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 cartridge after the "replace cartridge" indicator comes on. For best printing results, use up a cartridge within six months of opening the package. Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place. If cartridges have been exposed to cold temperatures, allow them to warm up to room temperature for at least 3 hours before using them. Replacing Ink Cartridges Make sure you have a new ink cartridge before you begin. You must install new cartridges immediately after removing the old ones. Caution: Do not open ink cartridge packages until you are ready to install the ink. Cartridges are vacuum packed to maintain reliability. Note: Leave the expended cartridge installed until you have obtained a replacement, or the ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out. 1. Turn on the NX100 Series. Note: If you need to change a cartridge before it is expended (the B ink light is flashing or off), run the ink cartridge replacement utility. See the on-screen Epson Information Center for details.
