Read the following instructions before replacing the maintenance box.
Epson recommends using the maintenance box before the date printed on the package.
After bringing a maintenance box inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room temperature for at least eight hours before using it.
Do not drop the maintenance box or subject it to strong shocks.
Do not touch the sections shown in the illustration. Doing so may prevent normal operation and you may get smeared with ink.
Do not tilt the used maintenance box until after it is sealed in the plastic bag; otherwise ink may leak.
Keep the maintenance box out of direct sunlight.
Do not store the maintenance box in high or freezing temperatures.
Do not reuse a maintenance box which has been removed and left detached for a long period. Ink inside the box will have solidified and no more ink can be absorbed.
