Ink Cartridges
* The figure given is based on continuous printing after ink replacement. The actual
print capacity may vary. The ink charging process reduces the print capacity of the
initial cartridge, even though it contains the standard amount of ink.
** Ink thaws and is usable after approximately 3 hours at 77 °F (25 °C).
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
In addition to the requirements for single sheets and envelopes
listed below, the Stylus Photo RX500 supports a variety of
EPSON special media. See page 1 for details.
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).
