Checking Ink Levels
The printer's control panel lights will inform you when it is time to obtain a
replacement ink cartridge and when it is time to replace an empty cartridge.
 |
Note: |
This table describes the status of the ink out lights and the actions you need to
take.
| Lights |
Action |
|

Obtain a replacement black ink cartridge
(S020187). |
| 
|
Replace the empty black ink cartridge. |
| 
|
Obtain a replacement color ink cartridge
(S020191 for EPSON Stylus Color 440/660, or S020193 for EPSON Stylus Photo 750). |
| 
|
Replace the empty color ink cartridge. |
 |
Caution: |
 |
 | To ensure good results, use genuine EPSON ink cartridges and do
not refill them. Other products may cause damage to your printer not covered by EPSON's
warranty. |
|
 |
 | Leave the old cartridge installed in the printer until you have
obtained a replacement. Otherwise, ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out. |
|
 |
Note: |
 |
 | You cannot continue printing with one ink cartridge empty, even
if the other cartridge still contains ink. Before printing, replace the empty cartridge. |
|
 |
 | In addition to the ink used during document printing, ink is used
during print head cleaning and during the self cleaning cycle which is performed when the
printer is turned on. |
