You’ll notice that when prints come out of your printer, you can immediately handle them. There is no drying time, no smearing or smudging, and your image is crisp and smooth. Here are the inks for your printer and just a few of EPSON’s papers:

Advanced Scanning With EPSON TWAIN

Scans can be performed from within a TWAIN-compliant host application—the application into which you plan to import the scan, such as Adobe® Photoshop® or EPSON Smart Panel. You have to start this application before you can access EPSON TWAIN, the scanner driver for your EPSON 1000 ICS. Then you need to select the EPSON TWAIN driver as the source (the steps may vary, depending on your application).

1. Start your application.

Maintenance

This section gives you basic maintenance instructions and tells you how to transport your EPSON 1000 ICS safely.

Cleaning the Print Head

If your printouts are unexpectedly light, or dots or lines are missing, you may need to clean the print head. This unclogs the nozzles so they can deliver ink properly. Print head cleaning uses ink, so clean it only if quality declines.

When you don’t turn on your EPSON 1000 ICS for a long time, the print quality can decline. It’s a good idea to turn on your EPSON 1000 ICS at least once a month to maintain good print quality.

1. Make sure the EPSON 1000 ICS is turned on but not printing, and the light is off. (If the

light is flashing or on, you may need to replace an ink

, and then

4. Examine the nozzle check pattern you print. It should look something like this:

Each staggered horizontal and straight vertical line should be complete, with no gaps in the dot pattern. If your printout looks okay, you’re done.

5. If you see any white lines or gaps, clean the print head again.

If you don’t see any improvement after cleaning three or four times, check the solutions beginning on page 39. You can also turn the EPSON 1000 ICS off and wait overnight—this allows any dried ink to soften—and then try cleaning the print head again.

Aligning the Print Head

If your printouts contain misaligned vertical lines, you may need to align the print head. You can align the print head directly from the EPSON 1000 ICS control panel.

1. Make sure the EPSON 1000 ICS is turned on and plain letter-size paper is loaded.

Aligning the Print Head

Load plain paper that’s at least 8.27 inches (210 mm) wide to prevent ink from spraying inside the EPSON 1000 ICS and smudging your printouts.

When a cartridge is more than six months old, you may need to replace it if printouts don’t look their best. If the quality doesn’t improve after cleaning and aligning the print head, you can replace the cartridge.

Purchasing Ink Cartridges

Use EPSON ink cartridges within six months of installing them and before the expiration date on the package. Look for ink cartridge packages labelled T017 (black) or T018 (color).

To ensure good results, use genuine EPSON ink cartridges and do not refill them. Other products may cause damage to your EPSON 1000 ICS not covered by EPSON’s warranty.

When you need new ink cartridges, contact your dealer, or call the EPSON Store at (800) 873-7766 or visit www.epsonstore.com (U.S. sales only). In Canada, please call (800) 463-7766 for dealer referral.

Replacing an Ink Cartridge

Ink Cartridge Precautions

Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.

If ink gets on your hands, wash them thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets in your eyes, flush them thoroughly with water.

To avoid damaging the EPSON 1000 ICS, never move the print head by hand.

You cannot print if either ink cartridge is empty. Leave the empty cartridge installed in the EPSON 1000 ICS until you have obtained a replacement. Otherwise the ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out.

Removing and Installing Ink Cartridges

Be sure you have a new ink cartridge before you begin. Once you start the ink cartridge replacement procedure, you must complete all the steps in one session.

1. Make sure the EPSON 1000 ICS is turned on and not printing. The control panel tells you which ink cartridge is low or empty.

Problem Solving

The image size or position is incorrect.

Make sure the paper and/or layout options are set correctly. See your electronic Reference Guide (as described on page 2) for more information.

The image is inverted, as if viewed in a mirror.

Turn off Flip Horizontal in the printer software or the mirror setting in your application software. (If you’re printing on EPSON Iron-On Cool Peel Transfer Paper, the image should be inverted so it looks correct when it’s ironed on.)

Scan Quality Problems

Your scanned image is blurry or distorted.

Check the position and condition of your document.

■

Make sure the document is placed flat against the document table glass. If only part of the image is blurred, part of your document may be wrinkled or warped.

Try scanning at a higher resolution. See page 22 for

■

recommended settings.

Make sure the document table glass is clean; see

■

page 31.

Make sure the EPSON 1000 ICS is not tilted or

■

placed on an unstable or uneven surface.



Your image is too dark.

Problems and Solutions

Try adjusting the brightness with your application

■

software. Also check the brightness and contrast values of your display screen.

The dark area around film, such as the frame of the

■

film holder, is perceived as white—altering the exposure of the scanning area and causing your scans to appear darker. Set the correct color by adjusting the marquee (frame border) so none of the film holder is selected. See your electronic Reference Guide (as described on page 2).

The image does not look the same as the original.

Your software settings are not correct for your

■

document type. Try different combinations of image settings using your scanner software.

Because your monitor and printer use different

■

technologies to represent colors, your printed colors cannot exactly match the colors you see on your screen. If you increase your monitor’s color palette, you can view a greater range of colors.

The edges of the document are not scanned.

The document table has non-readable areas around

■

the edges. If your document extends beyond the limits marked on the document table edge guides, reposition your document so it is within the readable area.

Check the position of your source document. Adjust

■

your document’s position so that the image is within the glass area.

The scanner doesn’t recognize your image type

Try scanning the image again. If that doesn’t work, scan in Manual mode (see page 22 for instructions).

when scanning in Full Auto mode.

The file size is too big. Adjust your scan settings. Try selecting a lower resolution

(dpi), saving the file in a different format, or scan only part of the image. 300 dpi is typically an adequate resolution for images that will be printed.

The printed image is larger or smaller than the original size.

A dotted line appears in the image.

You have changed the resolution or scaled your image. The image size settings in your software determine the size of the printed image.

If this happens on both your screen and printout,

■

clean the document table as described on page 31.

If the line is just on your printout, you may need to

■

clean your print head, see page 25.

Important Safety Instructions

Before using your EPSON 1000 ICS, read the following safety instructions to make sure you use the EPSON 1000 ICS safely and effectively:

■

Be sure to follow all warnings and instructions marked on the EPSON 1000 ICS.

■

Use only the type of power source indicated on the EPSON 1000 ICS’s label.

■

Connect all equipment to properly grounded power outlets. Avoid using outlets on the same circuit as air control systems or other high-load devices that regularly switch on and off.

■

Place the EPSON 1000 ICS near a wall outlet where the plug can be easily unplugged.

Placez l’imprimante près d’une prise de contacte où la fiche peut être débranchée facilement.

■

Do not let the power cord become damaged or frayed.

■

If you use an extension cord with the EPSON 1000 ICS, make sure the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord’s ampere rating. Also, make sure the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s ampere rating.

■

Avoid electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers.

■

Keep your EPSON 1000 ICS and computer system away from potential sources of electromagnetic interference, such as loudspeakers or cordless telephone base units.

■

Avoid locations that are subject to rapid changes in heat or humidity, shocks or vibrations, or dust.

■

Leave enough room around the EPSON 1000 ICS for sufficient ventilation.

■

Do not place the EPSON 1000 ICS near a radiator or heating vent or in direct sunlight.

■

Place the EPSON 1000 ICS on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond the EPSON 1000 ICS base in all directions. The EPSON 1000 ICS will not operate properly if it is tilted or at an angle. Leave enough space in front of the EPSON 1000 ICS for the paper to be fully ejected.

■

Turn off and unplug the EPSON 1000 ICS before cleaning. Clean with a damp cloth only. Do not spill liquid on the EPSON 1000 ICS.

ENERGY STAR Compliance

Always turn the EPSON 1000 ICS off using the POperate button. The POperate light flashes briefly and then goes out. Don’t switch off the power strip, or unplug the EPSON 1000 ICS until the POperate light is off.

■

Do not block or cover the openings in the EPSON 1000 ICS’s case or insert objects through the slots.

■

Except as specifically explained in this manual, do not attempt to service the EPSON 1000 ICS yourself.

■

Unplug the EPSON 1000 ICS and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

■

If the power cord or plug is damaged; if liquid has entered the EPSON 1000 ICS; if the EPSON 1000 ICS has been dropped or the case damaged; if the EPSON 1000 ICS does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions.

■

Before transporting the EPSON 1000 ICS, make sure the print head is capped in the far right position and the ink cartridges are in place. Also make sure the scanner carriage is secured with the transportation lock.

Ink Cartridge Safety Instructions

■

Leave the ink cartridges installed. Removing the cartridges can dehydrate the print head and may prevent the EPSON 1000 ICS from printing.

■

Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.

■

Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges; there may be ink remaining around the ink supply port. If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with water.

■

Do not put your hand inside the EPSON 1000 ICS or touch the cartridge during printing.

■

Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise you may damage the EPSON 1000 ICS.

■

Install the ink cartridge immediately after you remove it from its package. Leaving the cartridge unpacked for a long time before use may result in reduced print quality.

■

Do not use an ink cartridge beyond the date printed on the cartridge package. For best results, use up the ink cartridges within six months of first installing them.

■

Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place. Store each ink cartridge so that the bottom of its package faces 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 remove or tear the label or shake an ink cartridge; this can cause leakage.

■

Do not dismantle the ink cartridges or try to refill them. This could result in damage to the print head.

■

Do not touch the green IC chip on the side of the cartridge. This may affect normal operation and printing.

Requirements and Notices

■

In this ink cartridge, the IC chip retains a variety of cartridge-related information, such as the amount of ink remaining, so that a cartridge may be removed and reinserted freely. However, each time a cartridge is inserted, some ink is consumed because the EPSON 1000 ICS automatically performs a reliability check.

■

If you remove an ink cartridge for later use, protect the ink supply area from dirt and dust and store it in the same environment as the EPSON 1000 ICS. Note that there is a valve in the ink supply port, making covers or plugs unnecessary, but care is needed to prevent the ink from staining items that the cartridge touches. Do not touch the ink cartridge ink supply port or surrounding area.
