Refilling Ink and Replacing the Maintenance Box Periodically check the ink tanks to see if they need to be refilled. Before checking the ink level or refilling an ink tank as described here, be sure to read the ink safety precautions. Caution: Visually check the ink levels in the product's ink tanks to confirm the actual ink levels. Continued use of the product when the ink is expended could damage the product. Ink Safety Precautions Checking the Ink and Maintenance Box Levels Purchase Epson Ink and Maintenance Box Refilling the Ink Tanks Maintenance Box Replacement Related concepts Print Head Maintenance Ink Safety Precautions Note: Epson strongly recommends the use of genuine ink to ensure optimal print quality and performance. Note: The product has a low ink alert system. The accuracy of this system depends on the user refilling the ink tanks correctly. The product cannot directly measure the ink levels in the tanks; instead it estimates the amount of ink remaining by internally monitoring ink usage. The low ink alert system may generate inaccurate messages if the ink tanks are not refilled according to these instructions. As a precaution, perform regular visual inspections of the ink tanks to ensure ink levels do not fall below the lower line. Continued use of the product when the ink level is below the lower line on the tank could damage the product. Ink Handling Precautions • Keep ink bottles and the ink tanks out of the reach of children. Do not allow children to drink from or handle the ink bottles and bottle caps. • Do not tilt or shake an ink bottle after opening it; otherwise, ink may leak. 215
