Replacing An Ink Cartridge - Epson Stylus Color 980 Printer Basics Manual

Replacing an Ink Cartridge

When the B black or A color ink out light flashes, the indicated cartridge is low on
ink. This is a good time to make sure you have a new cartridge. When the light stays
on, the cartridge is empty and you need to replace it.
You cannot print if either ink cartridge is empty. Leave the empty
cartridge installed in the printer until you have obtained a
replacement; otherwise the ink remaining in the print head nozzles
may dry out.
When an installed ink cartridge is more than six months old, you may also need to
replace it if you notice that your printouts don't look as good as they used to. If print
quality doesn't improve after cleaning and aligning the print head, you can replace
one or both cartridges. To check the level of ink you have left, see the graphic in the
printer driver (Windows) or click the
EPSON Monitor 3 utility (Macintosh).
Use these EPSON ink cartridges within six months of installing them and before the
expiration date on the package:
Black ink cartridge
Color ink cartridge
To ensure good results, use genuine EPSON ink cartridges and do
not refill them. Other products may cause damage to your printer not
covered by EPSON's warranty.
When you need new ink cartridges, contact your dealer or call the EPSON Store
(800) 873-7766. You can also visit the EPSON Store at www.epson.com (U.S. sales
