Replacing the
Maintenance Tank
The maintenance tank absorbs ink discharged when
cleaning the print head. There are two maintenance
tanks placed on the left and right for Epson Stylus Pro
9700/9710 and one placed on the right for Epson
Stylus Pro 7700/7710. You need to replace the
maintenance tank when the LCD panel instructs to do
so.
Confirming the empty space of
the maintenance tank
Using the printer’s control panel
The empty space of the maintenance tank is always
displayed on the LCD panel.
See “Display” on page 13
You can check the empty space in the PRINTER
STATUS menu. You need to check it before printing a
lot of data. If the maintenance tank has not enough
empty space, prepare a new one.
See “Using the Menu mode” on page 15
See “PRINTER STATUS ” on page 23
Using the printer driver
You can check the empty space of the maintenance
tank on your computer by using EPSON Status
Monitor. The instructions are the same as confirming
the ink cartridge remaining.
