Removing and Installing Ink Cartridges

Be sure you have a new ink cartridge before you begin. Once
you start replacing a cartridge, you must complete all the steps
in one session.
Warning:
Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children.
Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges; there may be ink
remaining around the ink supply port. If ink gets on your skin, wash
it off with soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them
immediately with water.

Caution:
Do not put your hand inside the Epson Stylus CX all-in-one or touch
any cartridges during printing.
If you remove an ink cartridge for later use, protect the ink supply
area from dirt and dust and store it in the same environment as the
Epson Stylus CX. Note that there is a valve in the ink supply port,
making covers or plugs unnecessary, but care is needed to prevent
the ink from staining items that the cartridge touches. Do not touch
the ink cartridge ink supply port or surrounding area.
Leave the empty cartridge installed until you have obtained a
replacement, or the ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry
out, preventing the Epson Stylus CX from printing. To ensure good
results, use genuine Epson ink cartridges and do not refill them.
Other products may cause damage to your Epson Stylus CX not
covered by Epson's warranty.
