1. Quoted ink bottle photo yields are extrapolated based
on the ISO/IEC 29103 pattern with Epson’s methodology
printing photos in 10x15cm format, and NOT based on ISO/IEC
29102. Quoted yields may vary depending on the images that
you are printing, the paper type that you are using, the
frequency of your prints and environmental conditions such
as temperature. During the initial printer setup, a certain
amount of ink is used to fill the print head’s nozzles,
therefore the yield of the initial bundled set can be
lower. For more information visit www.epson.eu/pageyield
2. Epson Smart Panel and Epson Creative Print require a
wireless connection and the Epson printing apps. Epson
Email Print, Epson Scan-to-Cloud and Epson Remote Print
Driver require an internet connection. For more
