Ink Handling Precautions
Observe the following when handling the ink:
- Keep ink
bottles and the ink tank out of the reach of children. Do not allow
children to drink from or handle the ink bottles and bottle
caps.
- Do not tilt
or shake an ink bottle after removing its seal; otherwise, ink may
leak.
- Be careful
not to touch any ink when you handle the ink tank, ink tank cap,
and opened ink bottles or ink bottle caps.
- If ink gets on your skin, wash it thoroughly with
soap and water. If ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately
with water. If ink gets into your mouth, spit it out immediately.
Seek medical advice if problems persist.
Ink Refilling Precautions
- Use ink
bottles with the correct part number for this product.
- Epson's warranties do not extend to any damage
caused by the use of third-party ink or ink not designed for your
printer.
- This product
requires careful handling of ink. Ink may splatter when the ink
tank is filled or refilled with ink. If ink gets on your clothes or
belongings, it may not come off.
- Do not open
the ink bottle package until you are ready to fill the ink tank.
Ink bottles are vacuum packed to maintain reliability. If you leave
an ink bottle unpacked for a long time before using it, print
quality may be affected.
- If the ink
level is below the lower line on the ink tank, refill the ink soon.
Continued use of the product when the ink level is below the lower
line on the ink tank could damage the product.
- Epson
recommends filling the ink tank to the upper line when the product
is not operating.
- After
bringing an ink bottle inside from a cold storage site, allow it to
warm up at room temperature for at least three hours before using
it.
- Store ink
bottles in a cool, dark place.
- Store the
ink bottles in the same environment as the product. When storing or
transporting an ink bottle after removing its seal, do not tilt the
bottle and do not subject it to impacts or temperature changes.
Otherwise, ink may leak even if the cap on the ink bottle is
tightened securely. Be sure to keep the ink bottle upright when
tightening the cap, and take measures to prevent ink from leaking
when you transport the bottle.
- Use the ink bottle before the date printed on the
package.
- Do not shake or squeeze the ink bottle.
Ink Bottle and Ink Tank
Information
- To maintain
optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from the ink
tank during printing and when performing maintenance operations,
such as cleaning the print head.
- The ink
bottles may contain recycled materials, but this does not affect
product function or performance.
