Ink cartridge levels
The level of ink shown on the icons indicates the approximate
amount of ink remaining. If an ink cartridge is low, the red b
error light flashes. This is a good time to make sure you have a
new cartridge. If an ink cartridge is empty, the red b error
light remains on and you see a message on the display telling
you that the cartridge needs to be replaced.
You cannot print if any ink cartridge is empty. Leave the
empty cartridge installed in the printer until you have
obtained a replacement, otherwise the ink remaining in
the print head nozzles may dry out. To ensure good
results, use genuine EPSON ink cartridges and do not
refill them. Other products may cause damage to your
printer not covered by EPSON's warranty.
When an installed cartridge is more than six months old, you
may need to replace it if printouts don't look their best. If the
quality doesn't improve after cleaning and aligning the print
head, you can replace the cartridge even if the b error light is
off.
