Ink Bottle Specifications; Checking The Ink Levels - Epson L1300 User Manual

User's Guide
❏ After bringing an ink bottle inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room temperature for at
least three hours before using it.
❏ Store ink bottles in a cool, dark place.
❏ Store the ink bottles in the same environment as the product. When storing or transporting an ink bottle after
removing its seal, do not tilt the bottle and do not subject it to impacts or temperature changes. Otherwise, ink
may leak even if the cap on the ink bottle is tightened securely. Be sure to keep the ink bottle upright when
tightening the cap, and take measures to prevent ink from leaking when you transport the bottle.

Ink bottle specifications

❏ Epson recommends using the ink bottle before the date printed on the package.
❏ The ink bottles packaged with your product are partly used during initial setup. In order to produce high
quality printouts, the print head in your product will be fully charged with ink. This one-off process consumes
a quantity of ink and therefore these bottles may print fewer pages compared to subsequent ink bottles.
❏ Quoted yields may vary depending on the images that you are printing, the paper type that you are using, the
frequency of your prints and environmental conditions such as temperature.
❏ Although the ink bottles may contain recycled materials, this does not affect product function or performance.
❏ When printing in monochrome or grayscale, color inks instead of black ink may be used depending on the
paper type or print quality settings. This is because a mixture of color inks is used to create black.

Checking the Ink Levels

To confirm the actual ink remaining, visually check the ink levels in all of the product's tanks.
c
Important:
❏ If any of the ink tanks are not filled up to the lower line, fill them to the upper line on the ink tank. Continued
use of the product when the ink level is below the lower line on the tanks could damage the product.
❏ The L1300 has two black ink tanks. Make sure the ink level for both ink tanks is above the lower line.
