The ink cartridge carrier does not return to the opening in order to replenish the cartridges

Press the ink button on the control panel repeatedly. This will work if at least one cartridge is completely out. With the scanner unit open, then the first press of the ink button will move the cartridge carrier to line up the empty cartridge with an "empty cartridge" mark on the printer. Each subsequent press will cause the next empty cartridge to line up with the mark. Once all of the empty cartridges have been indicated, the next press of the ink button will bring the cartridges into the replacement position.

If you want to change a cartridge when none are empty, you need to enter the Epson Toolbox (with the printer in a Ready state - scanner unit closed, etc). Then use the software to set the printer to change the ink cartridges. When prompted by the software, open the scanner unit and follow the directions for changing the ink cartridges.

If the cartridge carrier isn't moving when you press the ink button, look for anything blocking the path of the carrier. Even small pieces of paper could stop the mechanism. Use a flashlight to check the corners. (You may want to unplug the printer and try moving the cartridge carrier by hand to check below it.) Some models have the cartridge carrier run on a plastic strip that can come out of the guide on the back. Move the strip back and up and down until it is repositioned.

I hope this helps.

Hi There!
Here's what you can do to replace the cartridge
Just open the top cover together with the scanner cover. When the cartridge carrier move in the middle of the printer, it's the time you can replace the catridge, then lift up the top cover for the cartridge carrier & then the cartridges.
In replacing the cartridges, you just have to push the cartridge down the carrier, you will hear a snapping sound then return the top cover for the carrier and the scanner bed.
Hope this helps!
