Checking the Ink Cartridge Status When the red B ink light starts flashing, one or more cartridges are low on ink. You can continue printing until a cartridge needs replacement. When the red B ink light stays on, you need to replace the cartridge(s). Note: Yields vary considerably based on images printed, print settings, paper type, frequency of use, and temperature. For print quality, a variable amount of ink remains in the cartridge after the "replace cartridge" indicator comes on. The printer ships with full cartridges and part of the ink from this first set of cartridges is used for charging the printer. A window may also appear on your computer screen when you try to print when ink is low. This window can optionally display ink offers and other updates retrieved from an Epson web site. On a Windows computer that is connected to the Internet, you may see a screen asking if you want to receive these Epson offers the first time you try to print when ink is low. Click Accept or Decline to continue. Note: To disable checking for ink offers or updates from Epson, see the instructions in your on-screen User's Guide. If a cartridge is more than six months old, print quality may decline. If necessary, try cleaning the print head (see page 18). If printouts still do not look their best, you may need to replace the cartridge. Order or purchase these new ink cartridges: 88 Black, 88 Cyan, 88 Magenta, or 88 Yellow. You can purchase genuine Epson ink and paper from an Epson authorized reseller. To find the nearest reseller, call 800-GO-EPSON (800-463-7766). Or you can purchase online at www.epsonstore.com (U.S. sales) or www.epson.ca (Canadian sales). Note: You cannot print or copy when an ink cartridge is expended even if the other cartridges are not expended. Replace any expended cartridges before printing or copying. 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. Leave the expended cartridge installed until you have obtained a replacement, or the ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out. If you remove an expended ink cartridge or a cartridge after the low ink message appears, you cannot reinstall and use the cartridge. Checking the Ink Cartridge Status 19
