Ink Cartridges
Caution:
To ensure good results, use genuine Epson cartridges. Other products may cause
damage to your printer not covered by Epson’s warranty.
Don’t use an ink cartridge if the date on the package has expired.
Do not refill the ink cartridge. An IC chip on the cartridge calculates the amount of
remaining ink based on the initial supply. Adding ink does not increase the
amount available for use.
Paper
This section describes the specifications for single sheets and
envelopes.
Note:
Since the quality of any particular brand or type of paper may be
changed by the manufacturer at any time, Epson cannot attest to the
quality of any non-Epson brand of paper. Always test samples of
paper stock before purchasing large quantities or printing large jobs.
Poor quality paper may reduce print quality and cause paper jams and
other problems. If you encounter problems, switch to a higher grade
of paper. Do not load curled, folded, or wrinkled paper.
Use paper under normal environmental conditions: 59 to 77 °F (15 to
25 °C) and 40 to 60% RH (relative humidity).
