Get everything together in one place so you can do this all at the same time. It will take
about 15 minutes of your time. It is not difficult if you have the right tools. Of course the
second time you do it, it will be a lot easier.
Validate Your Printer Performance and Set Up USB Cable:
1. Before you begin installing the CFS, make sure your printer is working perfectly. If
you don't do this and you have problems later on, you will never know if it is the CFS
or your printer. So, DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP.
Use your Epson cartridges, and check your nozzle pattern, if it looks good, then
print 5 copies of the PURGE6.TIF image (found on the disk provided or our web

the clamps that were holding the cartridges in place. Put the screwdriver blade in
between the blue and black plastic parts where the clamps are hinged, and twist.
The clamps will pop right off. With the cartridges in the left position, pull the
power cord for the printer out of the wall, disconnecting the printer power.
"At this point, disconnect the printer power by pulling the plug out of the wall"
Install the CFS Cartridges:
3. With the power disconnected, remove the old cartridges and insert the new CFS
color cartridges. There should be 4 felt pads on each cartridge. You may have to
guide these felt pads into the cartridge holder, it is a tight fit. Push the cartridge
all the way down, so the poppet valves are actuated and the contacts touch the
