EasyFlow®BULK INK SYSTEM Quick Start Guide
EPSON WorkForce 30
BEFORE YOU BEGIN...
Before you install the ArTainium EasyFlow Bulk Ink System, you should setup the Epson printer with the Epson supplied inks
and driver. This will allow you to conduct a nozzle check to ensure the printer is working properly. Record the alpha-numeric
value from the nozzle check (located on the far right side of the page). This is your Firmware Number which will be needed
during the ArTainium ICC Profile Registration. Once completed, you can begin the bulk ink system installation process.
Note: Please remove the Epson cartridges before proceeding to step 1.)

1.) Before installing the ink bag, check that the ink bag valve
is perpendicular to the ink tube as shown in the picture.
Next, remove plastic cap from the ink bag valve.
2.) Match each ink bag with the appropriate color bead found in the ink box. Fasten the ink bag valve with the ink box connector
by pushing the connections together and twisting the cap to lock them into place. Once the ink bag has been installed, turn the
ink bag valve parallel to the ink tube. Finally, insert the dividers between each bag.
3.) Place the bulk ink dampers face down on top of the bulk ink box. Use care to avoid damaging the bulk ink dampers reset button. Notice how the reset button is not making contact with the bulk
ink box. With the syringe plunger pressed down, insert the syringe tip into the septum of the damper. Next, slowly extract the plunger. Ink will start to flow through the tubing and into the damper.
Remove the syringe from the septum when a small amount of ink has filled the syringe tip. Repeat the process for the remaining four channels.
4.) Lift the lid and power on the printer. 5.) Once the printer has completed initializing, press the ink
out button.
6.) Raise the lid of the ink cartridge bay. Firmly grasp the lid
and twist it sideways until it becomes dislodged. The lid
will not be needed for proper functioning of the printer with
either the bulk ink system or individual ink cartridges.

•Make sure you install, register and configure the ArTainium ICC Profile.
• Perform a Nozzle Check from the Epson Driver. A few cleaning cycles may be necessary to get a good Nozzle Check.
•There may be small pockets of air in the lines after setup. If so, these will clear after a few prints are run.
•If the System is to be dormant for several days, use the Tube Clamps to seal the lines at the Reservoir Box.
• Do not raise the ink box higher than the printer.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed the ArTainium EasyFlow®Bulk Ink
System. Be sure the printer is placed on a level surface next to the ink box.
Caution: The ink box should never be raised higher than the printer as this will cause ink to
leak into, and damage the printer.
7.) The ink cartridge bay should look like the picture above
after removing the ink cartridge cover.
8.) Gently insert the ink dampers into the cartridge bay.
Use care to avoid damaging the bulk ink dampers reset
button. The black dampers should be positioned on the
far left side and the yellow on the far right.
9.) Firmly push the bulk ink dampers into place. You should
hear a slight clicking sound when the dampers become
engaged. Again, please use care to avoid damaging the
bulk ink dampers reset button.
11.) The plastic arm should be aligned so that the edge of
the adhesive Velcro is situated at the upper top right
hand corner of the ink cartridge bay. Press the plastic
arm firmly to set the adhesive Velcro in place.
10.) Remove the backing from the plastic support arm.
13.) Press the ink out button to begin the cartridge
recognition cycle. Once the cycle is complete, the Ink
Out light should turn off. If the light does not turn off,
follow the Chip Reset Instructions to remedy. Also,
check that the dampers have been inserted firmly in
place.
12.) Align velcro strips on the tubing with the velcro strips
on the arm.
NOTE: Be sure to align the left edge of the tape with the left
edge of the arm. This is to eliminate the possibility
of too much or too little slack in the tubing.
