Maintaining and Transporting the Printer

Since this process consumes some ink from the color cartridges as well as the
black one, you need to make sure there is enough ink in all the cartridges
before you begin. Check the

Ink Out

lights on the control panel:

If there is not enough ink in one or more cartridges, you’ll be prompted
during the procedure to replace them. If any cartridges are low on ink but
not low enough to prevent the procedure from being carried out, you should
still make sure you have replacements available, or you will be limited in how
much you can print after switching black ink modes. See page 5-11 for ink
cartridge part numbers.

If the printer’s waste ink tank is full, you’ll need to have it replaced as well.
Use the printer’s control panel to check the tank:

1. Press the

SelecType

button until

MAINTENANCE MENU

is displayed

on the control panel.

2. Press the Item button until you see

BK INK CHANGE=EXEC

, then

press Enter.

3. If

WASTE INK TANK FULL

is displayed, contact your dealer or

EPSON to have the tank replaced. See “Where To Get Help” on page 3.

4. Press the

SelecType

button to exit the menu.

If an

Ink Out

light is on

or flashing, you need to
replace the cartridge
before switching black
ink modes
