Paper Handling Precautions

❏ Read the instruction sheets supplied with the paper.
❏ Fan and align the edges of the paper before loading. Do not fan or curl photo paper. Doing so may damage the
printable side.
❏ If the paper is curled, flatten it or curl it slightly in the opposite direction before loading. Printing on curled
paper may cause paper jams and smears on the printout.
❏ Do not use paper that is wavy, torn, cut, folded, damp, too thick, too thin, or paper that has stickers stuck to it.
Using these types of paper causes paper jams and smears on the printout.
❏ Fan and align the edges of the envelopes before loading. When the stacked envelopes are puffed up with air,
press them down to flatten them before loading.
❏ Do not use envelopes that are curled or folded. Using these envelopes causes paper jams and smears on the
printout.
❏ Do not use envelopes with adhesive surfaces on the flaps or window envelopes.
❏ Avoid using envelopes that are too thin, as they may curl during printing.

the subject by reducing, enlarging, cropping, or rotating the image, the color may change unexpectedly. Selecting the
borderless setting also changes the location of the subject resulting in changes in color. If the image is out of focus, the tone
may be unnatural. If the color is changed or becomes unnatural, print in a mode other than PhotoEnhance.

Ink Cartridge Handling Precautions

Read the following instructions before replacing ink cartridges.
Handling precautions
❏ Store ink cartridges at normal room temperature and keep them away from direct sunlight.
❏ Epson recommends using the ink cartridge before the date printed on the package.
❏ For best results, use up ink cartridge within six months of opening the package.
❏ For best results, store ink cartridge packages with their bottom down.
❏ After bringing an ink cartridge inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room temperature for at
least three hours before using it.
❏ Do not open the ink cartridge package until you are ready to install it in the printer. The cartridge is vacuum
packed to maintain its reliability. If you leave a cartridge unpacked for a long time before using it, normal
printing may not be possible.
❏ Be careful not to break the hooks on the side of the ink cartridge when you remove it from the package.
❏ You must remove the yellow tape from the cartridge before installing it; otherwise, print quality may decline or
you may not be able to print. Do not remove or tear the label on the cartridge; this can cause leakage.
88
User's Guide
❏ Do not remove the transparent seal from the bottom of the cartridge; otherwise, the cartridge may become
unusable.
❏ Do not touch the sections shown in the illustration. Doing so may prevent normal operation and printing.
❏ Install all ink cartridges; otherwise you cannot print.

❏ Do not replace ink cartridges with the power off. Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise, you may
damage the printer.
❏ Do not turn off the printer during ink charging. If the ink charging is incomplete, you may not be able to print.
❏ Do not leave the printer with the ink cartridges removed or do not turn off the printer during cartridge
replacement. Otherwise, ink remaining in the print head nozzles will dry out and you may not be able to print.
❏ If you need to remove an ink cartridge temporarily, make sure you protect the ink supply area from dirt and
dust. Store the ink cartridge in the same environment as the printer, with the ink supply port facing down or
sideways. Do not store ink cartridges with the ink supply port facing up. Because the ink supply port is
equipped with a valve designed to contain the release of excess ink, there is no need to supply your own covers
or plugs.
❏ Removed ink cartridges may have ink around the ink supply port, so be careful not to get any ink on the
surrounding area when removing the cartridges.
❏ This printer uses ink cartridges equipped with a green chip that monitors information such as the amount of
remaining ink for each cartridge. This means that even if the cartridge is removed from the printer before it is
expended, you can still use the cartridge after reinserting it back into the printer. However, when reinserting a
cartridge, some ink may be consumed to guarantee printer performance.
❏ For maximum ink efficiency, only remove an ink cartridge when you are ready to replace it. Ink cartridges with
low ink status may not be used when reinserted.
89
User's Guide
❏ To ensure you receive premium print quality and to help protect your print head, a variable ink safety reserve
remains in the cartridge when your printer indicates to replace the cartridge. The yields quoted for you do not
include this reserve.
❏ Although the ink cartridges may contain recycled materials, this does not affect printer function or
performance.
❏ Specifications and appearance of the ink cartridge are subject to change without prior notice for improvement.
❏ Do not disassemble or remodel the ink cartridge, otherwise you may not be able to print normally.
❏ You cannot use the cartridges that came with the printer for the replacement.
❏ Quoted yields may vary depending on the images that you are printing, the paper type that you are using, the
frequency of your prints and environmental conditions such as temperature.
Ink consumption
❏ To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from all cartridges during maintenance
operations. Ink may also be consumed when you replace ink cartridges or turn the printer on.
❏ When printing in monochrome or grayscale, color inks instead of black ink may be used depending on the
paper type or print quality settings. This is because a mixture of color inks is used to create black.
❏ The ink in the ink cartridges supplied with your printer is partly used during initial setup. In order to produce
high quality printouts, the print head in your printer will be fully charged with ink. This one-off process
consumes a quantity of ink and therefore these cartridges may print fewer pages compared to subsequent ink
cartridges.
! Caution:
Be careful not to trap your hand or fingers when opening or closing the scanner unit. Otherwise you may be injured.
Note:
❏ You can continue printing even after the printer indicates that the ink is low. However, prepare new ink cartridges as soon
as possible.
❏ If you replace the ink cartridges while copying, the originals may move out of place. Press the y button to cancel and
replace the originals.
1. Do one of the following.

❏ When prompted to replace ink cartridges
Check which ink cartridge needs to be replaced, and then press the OK button. Select Replace now using
the u or d button, and then press the OK button.
❏ When replacing ink cartridges before they are expended
Enter Setup from the home screen using the l or r button, and then press the OK button. Select

Checking and Cleaning the Print Head

If the nozzles are clogged, the printouts become faint, there is visible banding, or unexpected colors appear. When
print quality has declined, use the nozzle check feature and check if the nozzles are clogged. If the nozzles are
clogged, clean the print head.
c Important:
❏ Do not open the scanner unit or turn off the printer during head cleaning. If the head cleaning is incomplete, you
may not be able to print.
❏ Because print head cleaning uses some ink, clean the print head only if quality declines.
❏ When ink is low, you may not be able to clean the print head.
❏ If print quality has not improved after repeating nozzle check and head cleaning about four times, wait for at
least six hours without printing, and then run the nozzle check again and repeat the head cleaning if necessary.
We recommend to turn off the printer. If print quality has still not improved, contact Epson support.
❏ To prevent the print head from drying out, do not unplug the printer while the power is on.

* In some print cycles a very small amount of surplus ink may be collected in the ink pad. To prevent ink leakage
from the pad, the printer is designed to stop printing when the pad has reached its limit. Whether and how often
this is required will vary according to the number of pages you print, the type of material that you print and the
number of cleaning cycles that the printer performs. The need for replacement of the pad does not mean that your
printer has ceased to operate in accordance with its specifications. The printer will advise you when the pad
requires replacing and this can only be performed by an authorised Epson Service provider. The Epson warranty
does not cover the cost of this replacement.
