Caution:
Once you install the ink cartridges, do not open the
clamps or remove the cartridges except to replace them
with new ones. Once you remove a cartridge, do not reuse
it. Reusing a cartridge that has been removed may damage
the print head.
9. Press the
Alt
button again to return the print head to its
home position. (Even if you do not press
Alt
, the print head
moves back to its home position about 30 seconds after you
close the clamps.)
After you install the ink cartridges, the printer charges the
ink delivery system. This takes about two minutes. During
this time, the
Pause
light flashes. When the printer is
finished charging, the
Pause
light stays on without
flashing.
c
Caution:
Never turn off the printer when the
Pause
light flashes.
10. Close the printer cover.
In order to maintain optimum print quality, the printer
periodically performs a cleaning operation. You may notice the
cleaning cycle being performed when the printer has been on
for awhile without being used or when you turn it on after it
has been off for awhile.
You may need to manually activate a cleaning cycle if you
notice a decline in print quality; see Chapter 3 of the
Reference Guide
.
c
Caution:
When you need to replace ink cartridges, be sure to use only
genuine EPSON ink cartridges and do not refill them. Other
products may cause damage not covered by EPSON’s
warranty.
