Solving problems

The printer makes noise after ink cartridge installation.

• The first time you install ink cartridges, the printer must charge its print head

for 2.5 minutes or so. Wait until charging finishes (the power light stops
flashing) before you turn off the printer, or it may charge improperly and use
excess ink the next time you turn it on.

• If the printer stops moving or making noise, but the power light is still

flashing after 5 minutes, turn off the printer. If the light is still flashing when
you turn it back on, contact Epson as described in “Any questions?”.

• Turn off the printer, then make sure the ink cartridges are inserted completely

and the ink cartridge cover is closed completely. Wait a moment, then turn the
printer back on to clear the error.

You’re having problems installing the printer software.

• During software installation, you are prompted to connect the USB cable.

When you connect the cable, make sure your printer is turned on and the
cable is securely connected at both ends.

• Close your other programs, including any screen savers and virus protection

software, and install the software again.
