Examining The Nozzle Check Pattern; Replacing An Ink Cartridge - Epson Photo 700 User Manual

Maintenance and Transportation
Caution:
To ensure good results,
use genuine EPSON
cartridges and do not refill
them. Other products may
cause damage to your
printer not covered by
EPSON's warranty.

Examining the Nozzle Check Pattern

Examine the nozzle check pattern after printing it. It should
look something like this, with each of the six sections showing
one of the ink colors:
Each staggered horizontal and straight vertical line should be
complete, with no gaps in the dot pattern. If your printout
looks okay, you're done. If any dots are missing, as shown
below, clean the print head again, as explained in the previous
sections.

Replacing an Ink Cartridge

When a B black or A color ink out light flashes, the indicated
cartridge is low on ink. This is a good time to make sure you
have a new cartridge. When the light stays on, the cartridge is
empty and you need to replace it. You cannot print if either ink
cartridge is empty. You can also check your ink levels using the
Status Monitor. See page 4-8 (Windows 95) or page 4-16
(Macintosh) for details.
Use these EPSON ink cartridges within six months of installing
them and before the expiration date on the package:
Black ink cartridge: S020093
Color ink cartridge: S020110
