Replacing the Waste Ink System

Approximately every two years of normal usage (25% duty cycle) or after
20,000 B0-size prints, you should have your authorized EPSON servicer
replace the waste ink system. This is necessary to prevent damage to the print
head and maintain print quality. Parts and labor for this service are not
covered under the terms of the limited warranty.
You can monitor the status of the waste ink system through the control
panel (see page 5-3) or through the Ink Pad percentage displayed on the
nozzle check print (see page 5-2); a low percentage means that the pad is
nearing the end of its service life.
The printer displays the following message on the control panel when the
waste ink system is almost full:
MAINTENANCE REQ. 0100
You should call to schedule service at this point. When the waste ink system
is at full capacity, the printer stops and displays the following message:
