The Epson Stylus Pro 4900 requires little maintenance to keep working at its 
best. This chapter describes the following routine procedures:
Checking printer status and part life
Checking and cleaning the print head
Aligning the print head
Replacing ink cartridges
Changing the black ink cartridge
Replacing the paper cutter blade
Replacing the maintenance tanks
Cleaning the printer
Transporting or storing the printer
In addition to the features described in this chapter, you can also use the 
menu system on the printer to fine-tune a variety of printer settings.
Alert Lamp
The Epson Stylus Pro 4900 is equipped with an alert lamp which 
automatically lights or flashes when an error or warning occurs. You can set 
or change the alert lamp settings in maintenance mode. (The default setting 
is “Disable”.)
Checking Printer Status and Part Life
Using the menus, you can check the amount of ink remaining, the total 
number of prints, and the status of your cutter blade, maintenance tank(s), 
and other printer parts. You can either print out a status check (described in 
the next section), or you can view the printer’s status on the LCD screen.
