Ink Cartridge Precautions; Removing And Installing Ink Cartridges - Epson Stylus C87 Quick Manual

Ink Cartridge Precautions

Warning: Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and don't drink the ink.
If ink gets on your hands, wash them thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets in your
eyes, flush them immediately with water.
Caution: Don't remove the cartridge label, or ink will leak.
Don't remove the green IC chip from the cartridge. Installing a cartridge without an IC
chip can damage the printer. Avoid touching the green IC chip, as this can damage the
ink cartridge.
If you remove an ink cartridge temporarily, protect the ink supply port on the bottom of
the cartridge from dirt and dust. Place it in the original packaging, if you still have it, or in
a small box.
Store ink cartridges in the same environment as the printer. Stand the cartridges
upright (the label identifying the color should be on top).

Removing and Installing Ink Cartridges

Be sure you have a new ink cartridge before you begin. Once you start replacing a
cartridge, you must complete all the steps in one session.
Caution: Leave the empty/low cartridge installed until you have obtained a
replacement, or the ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out.
1. Make sure the printer is turned on (the green P power light should be on,
but not flashing).
2. Open the printer cover.
