Media Loading and Handling Guidelines
Don't use any cleaning sheets included with special
media; they may jam inside the printer.
The type of paper or other media you use is one of the most
important factors in determining the quality of your printed
output. The following tips will help you get the best results on
any type of paper or other media:
Always handle sheets by the edges, and don't touch the
printable surface.
Be sure to load the printable (whiter or glossier) side of the
media face up in the sheet feeder.
Load paper only up to the arrow mark on the left edge

Replacing an Ink Cartridge
When the B black or A color ink out light flashes, the
indicated cartridge is low on ink. This is a good time to make
sure you have a new cartridge. When the light stays on, the
cartridge is empty and you need to replace it. You cannot
print if either ink cartridge is empty.
You can also check your ink levels using Status Monitor 3. See
your electronic EPSON Stylus COLOR 980N Reference Guide
for details.
Use these EPSON ink cartridges within six months of
installing them and before the expiration date on the package:

and do not refill them. Other products may cause damage
to your printer not covered by EPSON's warranty.
