Do I get sent ink every month? | Ink is not scheduled to be sent every month. Replacement ink is delivered when more ink is needed for you to print the pages in your plan.

What happens if I print more pages than my monthly allowance? | You have the option to move between plans. For example, move to a higher plan for a month of heavy printing and then go back to a lower plan. Or you can just pay for each additional page. On the ReadyPrint Flex plan each additional page is just £0.10. You don’t have to do anything - they’ll just be added to your next bill. |
Can I rollover unused pages? | Yes, you can roll over unused pages. Unprinted pages in the allowance can roll over two months. |
If I register more than one printer, can I share my pages between plans? | No, the allowance is specific to the individual printer and cannot be shared to other printers. |
Can I use ReadyPrint ink cartridges in any other printer? | No, the ReadyPrint ink cartridges will only work with your printer that is registered to ReadyPrint. |
Will my printer work with cartridges purchased outside of ReadyPrint? | Yes, your printer can use Epson cartridges purchased outside of your plan. Pages printed using cartridges purchased separately will not be counted in your allowance. Whether you are printing in colour or black, make sure that you remove all ReadyPrint individual ink cartridges from the printer to prevent pages being counted from your allowance. Important - using a cartridge bought separately will not cancel your plan. |
Can I change my plan? | ReadyPrint Flex Yes, if you have a ReadyPrint Flex plan you can move to a higher Flex plan at any time and it will be effective immediately. Downgrade whenever you want, and your new plan will be effective from the next billing cycle. |
How much does it cost? | You can find out about the cost of our plans and printers on the ReadyPrint campaign homepage. |
When does the billing cycle begin? How often am I billed? | The billing cycle starts on the day you complete your registration and runs automatically monthly. You will be billed at the start of each month. If you print more pages than your chosen plan, it will use up pages rolled over from the past two months. Extra pages will only be charged for when both the pages included within the plan and any rolled over pages have been used. Any extra pages will be billed at the end of the month together with the invoice for the next billing cycle. ReadyPrint Go is pay-as-you-go so there isn’t a billing cycle for this plan. |
How does my printer know when to send more ink? | When you register for ReadyPrint, it activates the technology inside the printer that enables it to assess your ink usage. It can anticipate when you need more ink and can ensure a delivery reaches you before the previous ink runs out. Epson may send ReadyPrint ink cartridges and ink bottles in advance - please store these until your printer advises that a refill is needed. |
What information is sent to Epson from my printer? | When you register to ReadyPrint, information regarding your ink levels and the number of pages printed will be sent to Epson. This ensures that ink can be delivered when you need it. |
How do I find my printer serial number? | To find the serial number, look on the side of the printer or under the scanner. You can also find it on the printer’s packaging. You can also watch our video. |
Whats counts as a page in my allowance? | Every side of a page that the printer completes printing counts as a page in your allowance. It doesn’t matter if you print documents or photos, and they can be in black or colour. A page printed on both sides will count as two pages. The page count is not impacted by how much or how little ink is used on a page. Note that system pages (e.g. printer status) do not count. Important notice for ReadyPrint Flex customers: Remove all ReadyPrint individual ink cartridges from the printer to prevent pages being counted from your allowance. You have to install a complete set of ink cartridges purchased outside of the plan, to ensure that printed pages are not counted from your plan allowance. |
