Changing the Black Ink Cartridge
You can change the black ink from Photo Black to Matte
Black or vice-versa. You will need to use the Black Ink
Conversion Kit (included with your printer) and a new
black ink cartridge (either Matte or Photo) that you want to
convert to.
Caution: To avoid interruption, observe the following conditions:
Do not turn off the printer, open the top cover, remove the rear
cover, move the paper lever to the released position, remove the
ink cartridges, remove the maintenance tank, or unplug the power
cord.
Note: If an electrical power failure occurs during this operation, turn
the printer on again. You can continue your procedure at the
breakpoint.
The Photo Black cartridge is ideal for printing photographic
images on all media types. It is optimized for traditional
photographic and ink jet-coated papers, such as Epson
Premium Luster Photo Paper (260), Premium Semi-gloss
Photo Paper (250), Premium Semimatte Photo Paper (260),
etc.
The Matte Black cartridge is optimized for printing
photographic images on matte or plain papers, such as Epson
Enhanced Matte Paper and Epson Velvet Fine Art Paper.
Generally, you should switch black ink cartridges only if you
plan to run a large number of print jobs in the new mode.
Since it takes about several minutes to switch and consumes
some ink, you shouldn't switch cartridges more often than
necessary.
Changing the black ink cartridge also consumes color ink, so
you need to make sure that all of the cartridges contain
enough ink before you begin.
