Before using this product, make sure you read these instructions and the safety instructions in the online User's Guide.
Note: Do not open the ink bottles until you are ready to fill the ink tanks. The ink bottles are vacuum packed to maintain reliability.

- Lift up the scanner unit. Remove all protective materials from inside the product.
Do not touch the flat white cable or the ink tubes and their translucent cover.
Fill ink tanks
Keep the ink bottles out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.
This product requires careful handling of ink. If ink spills, wipe it off immediately with a damp towel to avoid permanent stains. If ink gets on your clothes or belongings, it may not come off.
Note:
- Epson cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of third-party ink.
- Use the ink bottles included with the printer to set up the product. Part of the ink will be used to charge the print head. These bottles may print fewer pages compared with replacement ink bottles.
- Open the ink tank cover, then open the cap for the black ink tank.
- Unpack the black (BK) ink bottle. Hold the ink bottle upright and slowly turn the bottle cap to remove it.
Do not shake or squeeze the ink bottles. Do not touch the top of the ink bottle after its cap is removed. - Insert the ink bottle into the filling port, as shown below.
Note: Refer to the color-coded sticker on the ink tank unit to identify the color of each tank. Do not force the bottles into position; they are keyed for each color. - Wait for the ink to fill the tank. Do not squeeze the bottle. Ink flows into the tank and stops automatically when the ink is filled to the upper line.
Note: If ink does not flow from the bottle, lift and reinsert the bottle.
After setup, periodically inspect the ink level to ensure it is not below the lowest line on the tank. Prolonged use when ink is below the lowest line could damage the product. See the online User's Guide for refilling instructions. - When the ink tank is full, remove the ink and replace the bottle cap. Place the remaining ink aside; you will need it later.
Note: Do not leave the ink bottle inserted; otherwise the bottle may be damaged or ink may leak. - Close the ink tank cap.
