The same Epson 220 / 220XL cartridges fit the WorkForce WF-2630, WF-2650, WF-2660, WF-2750, WF-2760 and the Expression Home XP-320, XP-420 and XP-424.
Some printers often listed with them take different ink: the WF-2830 and WF-2850 take Epson 212, the WF-3720 takes Epson 702, and the XP-330 and XP-430 take Epson 288.
The WorkForce WF-2760 is a home-office all-in-one with print, scan, copy and fax, a 2.7-inch color screen, a 30-sheet document feeder, automatic two-sided printing, and both Wi-Fi and Ethernet. It uses four individual cartridges, so you only replace the color that runs out.
Do not confuse Epson 220 with Epson 252 or Epson 288. They look similar on the shelf but use different chips and shapes.
How to Replace the Ink in the Epson WorkForce WF-2760
- Turn the printer on and lift the scanner unit. The cartridge holder moves to the replacement position.
- Shake the new cartridge gently four or five times, then unwrap it and remove the yellow tape (do not touch the green chip).
- Squeeze the tab on the empty cartridge and lift it straight out.
- Press the new cartridge down into its matching color slot until it clicks.
- Lower the scanner unit and press the start or OK button if the screen asks. The printer charges the ink for a minute or two.
Troubleshooting Tips
"Ink cartridge cannot be recognized": Lift the scanner, press the cartridge down until it clicks, and check that the yellow tape is fully removed. If it still is not recognized, remove and reinstall all the cartridges, then restart the printer.
Streaks or missing lines: Run a nozzle check and head cleaning from the printer's Maintenance or Setup menu. Epson printheads are permanent, so cleaning is worth trying two or three times, letting the printer rest a few minutes between cycles.
Firmware updates: Some Epson firmware updates have blocked third-party cartridges. Epson says its printers are designed for genuine Epson cartridges, and an update won't undo a block. Turn off automatic firmware updates in the printer's settings or Epson Connect, and see printer firmware updates and third-party ink.
What WF-2760 owners ask
These are the questions that come up most for this printer on retailer Q&A pages, Epson's support pages and owner reviews, answered in our words.
Can the WF-2760 connect by Ethernet as well as Wi-Fi?
Yes. Epson lists 10/100 Ethernet, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n, Wi-Fi Direct and USB 2.0.
How many originals can the document feeder take?
Up to 30 sheets of plain paper, letter/A4 at most. Legal is the largest size it prints on.
Why does my printer say the ink is not recognized after an update?
Epson firmware updates have stopped non-Epson cartridges from being recognized on various models. Epson says its printers are designed to work only with genuine Epson cartridges, and its official fix is to install genuine ink.
Does it print two-sided automatically?
Yes. Automatic two-sided printing is built in.
How much can the fax store?
Up to 100 pages in memory, with 60 speed dials and PC-Fax send and receive.
WF-2760 quirks worth knowing
- Unusually for an Epson 220 printer, it has NFC tap-to-print and Wi-Fi Direct as well as wired Ethernet.
- The input tray holds 150 sheets, more than the 100-sheet trays common on printers in this class.
- It can send color faxes over a regular phone line, and broadcast faxing works in black and white.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many ink cartridges does the Epson WorkForce WF-2760 use?
Four: Epson 220 black, cyan, magenta and yellow.
Can I print black only when a color cartridge is empty?
For a short time. Many WorkForce models let you print in black for a few days when a color runs out, but you should replace the empty cartridge soon.
Can I mix standard 220 and 220XL cartridges?
Yes. They fit the same slots and can be mixed freely.
Does using remanufactured cartridges void my Epson warranty?
No. The U.S. Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act stops Epson from voiding your warranty just because you used third-party ink.
