Support Printers All-In-Ones WorkForce Series Epson WorkForce WF-2860

Which functions are available on my product when an ink cartridge is expended or not installed?

  • If an ink cartridge is not installed, the product will not print, fax, copy, or scan.

    If an ink cartridge is expended, the following functions are available:

    • When a color ink cartridge is expended, you may be able to temporarily continue printing using black ink. You will see a message during printing if you can print this way.
    • You can continue to send faxes through the FAX Utility or product’s control panel. Incoming faxes will be stored in the product’s fax memory and automatically print once the expended ink cartridge is replaced.
    • You can scan from the product's control panel or your computer, but you can copy from the product's control panel only if you see a message on the LCD.
