Checking The Ink Cartridge Status - Epson WorkForce 500 Quick Manual

Checking the Ink Cartridge Status

Your WorkForce 500 Series will let you know when an ink cartridge is low or
expended by displaying a message on its display screen or your computer. You
cannot print or copy when an ink cartridge is expended even if the other cartridges
are not expended. Replace any expended cartridges before printing or copying.
Note:
If you have installed a High Capacity (68) ink cartridge, the error message on your
screen may show it as 69. This is not a problem, however, because the WorkForce 500
Series recognizes that it is actually a High Capacity cartridge.
To check ink cartridge status from the display screen
anytime, follow these steps:
1. Press the button.
