C120 Bulk Ink System Installation Instructions

Before you Begin

It is crucial that the OEM ink supplied with your printer is installed before you attempt to install your
ArTainium inks. This allows for three things: First, it primes the ink delivery system, ensuring that
the ArTainium ink will load more easily. Second, it familiarizes you with the basic operation of your
printer. Third, it allows the user to obtain the firmware number of the printer. This will be required to
complete the registration process for using the ArTainium ICC Profiles. The firmware number is a
six digit code that is printed during the nozzle check operation. Please see the EPSON Stylus C120/
D120 Printer User's Guide for instructions on installation and printing a nozzle check.
2. Set the bulk ink dampers face down with the
round openings facing up. Turn the white but-
terfly ink bag valve to start the flow of ink into
the tubing. Pierce the thin plastic tab that cov-
ers the opening using the tip of the syringe or a
sharp object such as a ball point pen. Insert
the tip of the plastic syringe into the gasketed
opening until the tip is completed inserted.
Note -The plunger needs to be completely
inserted into the syringe.
