Ink And Chip Unit Precautions - Epson SureColor F6370 User Manual

tank, it is time to replace the ink tank. The ink tank must be replaced because fine dirt, dust, and other
foreign material may cause the ink tank's filter to malfunction. The ink tank replacement interval depends
on the usage environment and conditions. Contact Epson support for information on replacing
components.
Note: This printer has a remaining ink warning system. This system does not directly detect the amount
of ink remaining in the ink tank. Instead, the amount of ink remaining is estimated based on the ink
usage conditions and displayed as a message. The accuracy of this system depends on consistent and
proper ink refills.
If the procedure for refilling the ink and replacing the chip unit is not followed correctly, the remaining ink
warning system may not function properly. To prevent this, replace the chip unit and refill the ink as soon
as possible once the remaining ink level falls below 1.9 in. (50 mm) from the base of the ink tank.
