Replacing an Ink Cartridge

When your ink levels are low, Status Monitor 3 displays a
message on your screen. When you see the message, it's a good
time to make sure you have a new cartridge or replace it right
away.
When an ink cartridge is empty, Status Monitor 3 displays
another message and you must replace the cartridge to resume
printing.
You may also need to replace an ink cartridge if it's more than
six months old and your printouts don't look as good as they
used to. If print quality doesn't improve after cleaning and
aligning the print head, you can replace one or both
cartridges.
You cannot print if either ink cartridge is empty or not
installed. Leave the empty cartridge installed in the
printer until you have obtained a replacement. Otherwise
the ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out.
Use these EPSON ink cartridges within six months of
installing them and before the expiration date on the package:
Black ink cartridge: T013201 (U.S. and Latin America)
Color ink cartridge: T014201 (U.S. and Latin America)
To ensure good results, use genuine EPSON ink
cartridges and do not refill them. Other products may
cause damage to your printer not covered by EPSON's
warranty.
