Installing The Ink Cartridges - Epson Stylus Photo 1270 Setup Manual

Installing the Ink Cartridges

This printer uses ink cartridges equipped with IC chips. The IC chip
accurately monitors the amount of ink used by each cartridge, so even if a
cartridge is removed and inserted again, all of its ink can be used. However,
some ink is consumed each time the cartridge is inserted because the printer
automatically checks reliability.
Be sure to use the ink cartridges packed with your printer the first time you
install ink cartridges.
Using the Setup utility for Windows
If you have Windows 95, 98, or NT 4.0 installed on your computer, the Setup
utility should open automatically when your printer software installation
is complete.
Macintosh users, please refer to the following section.
Using the printer's control panel for PCs and Macintosh
If you are a Macintosh user, or are unable to access the Setup utility, use the
printer's control panel to install the ink cartridges.
Note:
Do not open the ink cartridge packages until just before you install them. If you
leave a cartridge unpacked for a long time before using it, normal printing may not
be possible.
Install the ink cartridges as follows:
1. Lower the output tray, then open the printer cover.
