Replacing the Maintenance Tank
The maintenance tank stores ink that gets flushed from the system during
manual and automatic print head cleaning. When the tank is almost full, the
message
MNT TK NEAR FULL appears on the LCD panel. When the tank is
completely full, the printer stops working and
MNT TK FULL appears on
the LCD.
You can check how much space remains in the maintenance tank by viewing
its indicator on the control panel, shown below. You can also check its status
using the SelecType menu (see page 95) or by printing a nozzle check sheet
(see page 94).
Replacement tanks are available from EPSON (part number C12C890071).
