• If ink gets on your skin, wash it thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets into your eyes, flush them
immediately with water. If discomfort or problems persist, see a doctor immediately. If ink gets into
your mouth, spit it out and see a doctor right away.
• Do not shake or squeeze the ink bottles.
• If ink spills, wipe it up immediately. To prevent the ink from spreading, blot the spill with a dry cloth,
then wipe it with a damp cloth. The ink will be hard to remove once it has dried.
Ink Refilling Precautions
• Use ink bottles with the correct part number for this product.
• Epson's warranties do not extend to any damage caused by the use of third-party ink or ink not
designed for your printer.
• This product requires careful handling of ink. Ink may splatter when the ink tanks are filled or refilled
with ink. If ink gets on your clothes or belongings, it may not come off.
• Do not open the ink bottle package until you are ready to fill an ink tank. Ink bottles are vacuum
packed to maintain reliability. If you leave an ink bottle unpacked for a long time before using it, print
quality may be affected.
• If the ink level is below the lower line on an ink tank, refill the ink. Continued use of the product when
the ink level is below the lower line on an ink tank could damage the product.
• Visually check the ink levels in the product’s ink tanks to confirm the actual ink levels. Continued use
of the product when the ink is expended could damage the product.
• For optimum printing results, refill the ink tanks to the upper line at least once a year.
• After bringing an ink bottle inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room temperature for
at least three hours before using it.
• Use the ink bottle before the date printed on the package.
• After opening an ink bottle, Epson recommends using it as soon as possible.
• Store ink bottles in a cool, dark place. Keep them out of direct sunlight.
• Store the ink bottles in the same environment as the product. When storing or transporting an opened
ink bottle, do not tilt the bottle and do not subject it to impacts or temperature changes. Otherwise, ink
may leak even if the cap on the ink bottle is tightened securely. Be sure to keep the ink bottle upright
when tightening the cap, and take measures to prevent ink from leaking when you transport the bottle.
