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

This section describes the specifications for single sheets and envelopes.

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).
