Warning:
Keep photo cartridges out of the reach of

Caution:
Epson recommends the use of genuine
Epson photo cartridges. Epson warranties
do not cover damage to your printer caused
by the use of ink cartridges not
manufactured by Epson.
Leave the old cartridge installed in the
printer until you have obtained a
replacement; otherwise, ink remaining in
the print head nozzles may dry out.
Do not refill photo cartridges. The printer
calculates the amount of ink remaining
using an IC chip on the photo cartridge.
Even if the cartridge is refilled, the amount
of ink remaining will not be recalculated
by the IC chip and the amount of ink
available for use will not change.
Note:
In addition to the ink used during an image printing, ink is
consumed during the print head cleaning operation, during
the self-cleaning cycle which is performed when the printer
is turned on, and during ink charging when the photo
cartridge is installed in the printer.
