developed and conducted by Epson under fluorescent light (indoor
display conditions) with glass mount. The data is calculated by Epson's
accelerated testing of prints on specialty media.
# Data is
calculated using accelerated simulation of fading under indoor
preservation conditions including fluorescent light indoor display.
Temperature, humidity and some atmospheric gases may also affect the
rate of estimated lightfastness and does not include the colour changes
or the durability of the paper itself. Epson prints to be stored in a

PAPER & INK
‡ The printer ships with a
full set of ink cartridges and part of the ink from the first cartridge
is used for priming the printer. Yields vary considerably based on
images printed, print settings, paper type, frequency of use and
temperature.
When an ink cartridge needs replacing, you cannot continue copying or
printing even if the other cartridges do not need replacing.
Leave the cartridge that needs replacing installed in the printer until
you have obtained a replacement. Otherwise the ink remaining in the
print head nozzles may dry out.
To ensure ongoing print quality and trouble-free operation, a variable
amount of ink remains in the cartridge after the “Replace Cartridge”
indicator comes on.
Warning to Epson printer owners. Many well known
third party companies claim their inkjet printing papers are compatible
with all Epson inkjet printers. Epson has reports from many customers
who have used third party paper and have been very disappointed with
the results. When the same customers have changed to genuine Epson
paper, they have been amazed and pleased with the colour and quality of
their prints. Epson recommends that you do not use any non genuine
printing papers if you want to get the best results from your Epson
printer. Epson printers are very carefully tuned to ensure Epson inks
and Epson's patented MicroPiezo™ printhead produce the best quality prints using carefully selected Epson paper.
All other brands of printing papers are not wholly compatible with the printer.
