❏ Do not continue printing when the ink level is below the lower line on the ink tank. Continued use of the
printer when the ink level is below the lower line could damage the printer. Epson recommends

Ink consumption
❏ To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from all ink tanks not only during
printing but also during maintenance operation such as print head cleaning.
❏ When printing in monochrome or grayscale, color inks instead of black ink may be used depending on the
paper type or print quality settings. is is because a mixture of color inks is used to create black.
❏
e
ink in the ink bottles supplied with your printer is partly used during initial setup. In order to produce high
quality printouts, the print head in your printer will be fully charged with ink. is one-o process consumes a
quantity of ink and therefore these bottles may print fewer pages compared to subsequent ink bottles.
