Replacement procedure

c
Important:
Epson recommends the use of genuine Epson ink
supply units. Epson cannot guarantee the quality
or reliability of non-genuine ink. The use of
non-genuine ink may cause damage that is not
covered by Epson's warranties, and under certain
circumstances, may cause erratic printer behavior.
Information about non-genuine ink levels may
not be displayed, and use of non-genuine ink is
recorded for possible use in service support.
SC-R5000 Series
If one of the installed ink supply units is expended,
printing cannot be performed. If ink is expended
while printing, you can continue printing after
replacing the ink supply unit. If you continue to use
an ink supply unit that is running low, you may need
to replace the ink supply unit while printing. If you
replace it while printing, colors may look different
depending on how the ink dries. If you want to avoid
issues such as this, we recommend replacing the ink
supply unit before printing. You can still use the
removed ink supply unit in the future until the ink
supply unit is expended.
The following procedure explains how to replace ink
supply units and cleaning ink supply unit.
Maintenance
SC-R5000L Series
When ink is expended, the ink supply automatically
switches to another ink supply unit of the same color.
Since printing continues as it is, replace the ink supply
unit for which ink is expended while there is still
enough ink remaining in the ink supply unit that is
currently operating. If one ink supply unit is
operating, you can replace the other ink supply unit
while printing. You cannot print if the amount of ink
remaining in both ink supply units of the same color
is expended.
