4. Press down all the ink cartridges until they click into place to make sure they are properly seated.
5. Close the cartridge cover and push it down until it clicks into place.
6. Close the scanner.
7. Press the Stop button to begin charging the ink. This takes about 2 minutes.
   When the On light stops flashing and remains on, ink charging is finished.
   
   Caution:
   Never turn off the Epson Stylus CX while ink is charging or you'll waste ink.
   If the ink light flashes, press the Stop button and press down all the cartridges securely.
   If you remove an ink cartridge for later use, protect the ink supply area from dirt and dust and store it in the same environment as the Epson Stylus CX with the label facing upward. Note that there is a valve in the ink supply port, making covers or plugs unnecessary, but care is needed to prevent the ink from staining items that the cartridge touches. Do not touch the ink cartridge ink supply port or surrounding area, and do not store the cartridge upside down.
   
   If you remove a low or expended ink cartridge, you cannot reinstall and use the cartridge.

Hi Good day!!! Here are the steps how to replace cartridges

1. Turn on your Epson Stylus NX100 Series printer. Your printer should be plugged in and connected to your computer.

2. Lift open the scanner and prop it up with the support bar. Press the stop button on your printer. The print head will move along the printer and will stop to show you which cartridge is low and needs to be replaced.

3. Press the stop button once more. If other cartridges need to be replaced, the printer head will indicate which ones by stopping on those cartridges each time you press stop. If no other cartridges need to be replaced, the print head will move replacement position on the right.

4. Squeeze the tab on the cartridge that needs to be replaced and remove the cartridge by lifting it straight up. Dispose of the used cartridge immediately.

5. Shake your new cartridge several times before removing it from the package. Remove the cartridge from the package without touching the green chip. Take the yellow tape off the bottom of the cartridge. Insert the cartridge into the holder by pressing until you hear it lock into place.

6. Release the support on the scanner and put the scanner back into its original position. Press the stop button to let your printer know that you have changed the cartridge. It may take up to two minutes for your printer to be ready to use. When the "On" light stops flashing and remains on, you may begin to use your printer.

there is a great possibility that the nozzles of your printer are clogged by dried inks.maybe cause by the previous inks that you just replaced. we can check that by printing a nozzle check pattern.

Hold down the Stop button as you press the On button to turn the Epson Stylus NX110 Series back on. When the On light begins to flash, release the Stop button. 4. Check the nozzle check pattern that prints to see if there are gaps in the lines. 5. If there are no gaps, the print head is clean and you can continue printing. If there are gaps or the pattern is faint, clean the print head. Using the Control Panel 1. Load a few sheets of plain paper in the sheet feeder. 2. Make sure the Epson Stylus NX110 Series is on and the ink light is off. 3. Hold down the Stop button for three seconds to start the cleaning cycle, which lasts around one minute.
