| XP series | T6741-T6744 |

(3) Observe the ink tank window and stop when the liquid level reaches the MAX line.
(4) Let it sit for 10 minutes and then perform the printer cleaning procedure.
3. Solutions to common problems
| Problem phenomenon | Solution |
|---|---|
| Ink not recognized | Restart the printer and perform a deep cleaning |
| Ink tank leaking | Check whether the sealing ring is intact |
| color deviation | Perform printhead alignment |
4. The five issues that users are most concerned about
1.Are non-original inks available?
Officials recommend using original ink. Third-party ink may cause the print head to become clogged. Use of non-original ink during the warranty period will void the warranty.
2.Adding order of different color inks
There are no strict requirements in theory, but it is recommended to operate in the CMYK (cyan/magenta/yellow/black) sequence to avoid cross-contamination.
3.Can I continue printing when I run out of monochrome ink?
Some models support emergency printing with a single ink cartridge, but this will accelerate the wear of the print head. It is recommended to replenish the ink in time.
4.Ink addition amount control
Each addition should not exceed 80% of the ink tank capacity. For specific values, please refer to:
| Ink tank model | Maximum capacity (ml) |
|---|---|
| Standard ink tank | 70ml |
| Large capacity ink tank | 140ml |
5.Winter ink precautions
When the temperature is lower than 10℃, the ink needs to be placed at room temperature 2 hours in advance to avoid viscosity changes caused by low temperature and affecting the printing quality.
5. Maintenance suggestions
1. Print a test page at least once a month to keep the pipeline open.
2. When not using it for a long time, you should perform the "ink head protection" procedure.
3. Keep the storage environment at a temperature of 15-30°C and a humidity of 40-60%
With the above structured guidance, you should be able to successfully complete the ink refilling operation on your Epson printer. If you encounter special problems, it is recommended to visit Epson’s official website to check the latest version of the operation manual or contact official customer service.
