Replacing Ink Cartridges - Epson XP-900 Series User Manual

User's Guide
❏ You cannot use the cartridges that came with the printer for the replacement.
❏ Quoted yields may vary depending on the images that you are printing, the paper type that you are using, the
frequency of your prints and environmental conditions such as temperature.
❏ Finish ink cartridge replacement promptly. Do not leave the printer with the ink cartridges removed.
Ink Consumption
❏ To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from all cartridges not only during
printing but also during maintenance operations such as ink cartridge replacement and print head cleaning.
❏ When printing in monochrome or grayscale, color inks instead of black ink may be used depending on the
paper type or print quality settings. This is because a mixture of color inks is used to create black.
❏ The ink in the ink cartridges supplied with your printer is partly used during initial setup. In order to produce
high quality printouts, the print head in your printer will be fully charged with ink. This one-off process
consumes a quantity of ink and therefore these cartridges may print fewer pages compared to subsequent ink
cartridges.
