Recovery Mode
*
In some print cycles a very small amount of surplus ink may be collected in the ink pad. To prevent ink leakage
from the pad, the product is designed to stop printing when the pad has reached its limit. Whether and how often
this is required will vary according to the number of pages you print using the borderless print option. The need
for replacement of the pad does not mean that your printer has ceased to operate in accordance with its
specifications. The printer will advise you when the pad requires replacing and this can only be performed by an
authorised Epson Service provider. The Epson warranty does not cover the cost of this replacement.
