How do I replace the ink cartridges?

• See below.

  Note:Your printer is designed to work only with genuine Epson-brand ink cartridges. Other brands of ink cartridges and ink supplies are not compatible and, even if described as compatible, may not function properly or at all. Epson periodically provides firmware updates to address issues of security, performance, minor bug fixes and ensure the printer functions as designed. These updates may affect the functionality of third-party ink. Non-Epson branded or altered Epson cartridges that functioned prior to a firmware update may not continue to function.

  Removing and Installing Ink Cartridges

  If an ink cartridge is low or expended, a message appears on your product's LCD screen. Note which ink cartridge needs to be replaced. Select How To and follow the steps on the LCD screen to remove and install the ink cartridges.

  Make sure you have the replacement ink cartridge(s) handy before you begin. You must install new cartridges immediately after removing the old ones.

  Caution:
  Leave your old cartridges in the printer until you are ready to replace them to prevent the print head nozzles from drying out. Do not open ink cartridge packages until you are ready to install the ink. Cartridges are vacuum packed to maintain reliability.

  Caution:
  If you remove an ink cartridge for later use, protect the ink supply area from dirt and dust and store it in the same environment as the printer. The valve in the ink supply port is designed to contain any excess ink, but do not touch the ink supply port or surrounding area. Always store ink cartridges with the label facing up; do not store cartridges upside-down.
