Refilling Ink

When the ink level is below the lower line on an ink tank, you need to refill it.
Periodically check the ink tanks to see if they need to be refilled.
Before checking the ink levels or refilling an ink tank as described here, be sure to read the ink safety
precautions.
Caution: If the ink level is below the lower line on the ink tank, fill it to the upper line on the ink tank.
Continued use of the product when the ink level is below the lower line on a tank could damage the

Ink Safety Precautions
Note: Epson strongly recommends the use of genuine ink to ensure optimal print quality and
performance.
Note: The product has a low ink alert system. The accuracy of this system depends on the user refilling
the ink tanks correctly. The product cannot directly measure the ink levels in the tanks; instead it
estimates the amount of ink remaining by internally monitoring ink usage. The low ink alert system may
generate inaccurate messages if the ink tanks are not refilled according to these instructions.
As a precaution, perform regular visual inspections of the ink tanks to ensure ink levels do not fall below
the lower line. Continued use of the product when the ink level is below the lower line on the tank could
damage the product.
Ink Handling Precautions
• Keep ink bottles and the ink tanks out of the reach of children. Do not allow children to drink from or
handle the ink bottles and bottle caps.
• Do not tilt or shake an ink bottle after opening it; otherwise, ink may leak.
