ink out lights come on, jammed paper may be blocking movement of
the print head or you may not have removed the yellow tape seal from
the installed ink cartridge(s). Turn off the printer, open the cover, and
check inside for any jammed paper. Then turn the printer back on. If an

dealer or EPSON; see page 61 for contact information.
