Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the ET-16500 use T774 for Black but T664 for Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow?
Epson engineered the WorkForce ET-16500 with a dedicated high-capacity black tank system that accepts pigment-based C13T774192 ink for smudge-resistant document text, while using dye-based C13T664 colour bottles for smooth graphics and charts.
How often does the C13T671100 maintenance kit need replacing on an EcoTank printer?
Unlike ink bottles which are refilled based on fluid levels, the printer alerts you when the C13T671100 maintenance kit is near capacity based on head cleaning frequency and borderless print margin flushing.
Can I top up the ink tanks before they are completely empty?
Yes, EcoTank reservoir tanks allow you to top up C13T774192 or C13T664 ink at any point without resetting microchips or interrupting active print queues.
