Introduction

Features of Printer

Realizing High Productivity

High-speed printing

The speeds of the print head and paper feed have been increased for faster printing.

The printer is equipped with a high-speed rotary cutter for quick cutting, significantly increasing productivity.

Support for large-capacity roll paper

Roll paper up to 170 mm outer diameter can be loaded. This reduces roll paper replacement time and person-hours, enabling efficient high-volume printing.

Reducing print waste with the print head nozzle self-cleaning function

The printer has a Self Check and Cleaning function that automatically detects and removes clogging of print head nozzles. This reduces decreases in print quality from clogging.

U “General Settings - Printer Settings” on page 142

Posters and displays that are vivid and also allow for short-term outdoor display

Posters with vivid hues can be printed simply by selecting, for example, Poster (Photo)/Perspective in Select Target of the supplied printer driver.

Short-term outdoor display is even supported since ink that also has excellent light fastness is used.

Your posters will last even longer if you use lamination processing.

The effect differs depending on the paper.

Insistence on Ease-of-Use

Back and side can be placed next to a wall

All work, such as replacing ink cartridges, maintenance boxes, and cutters, as well as loading roll paper and originals (SC-T5400M Series only), are done from the front of the printer, allowing the back and side of the printer to be placed against a wall. You do no need to turn the printer around, thus it can easily be situated in confined spaces.

See the following for dimensions.

Realizing High Resolution

CAD drawings that are clear, legible, and can even be used safely outdoors

Newly-developed Epson UltraChrome XD2 ink enables the printer to produce extremely detailed drawings both in black and white and in color.

The supplied printer driver offers a line drawing mode, making it easier to optimize printing for line drawing and, through unsurpassed reproduction of line drawing and fine lines in the form of connected lines, diagonals, and curves, ensuring the best possible results when the printer is used for drawings.

In addition, you can even safely take your drawings outdoors with you because they are printed using ink with excellent water resistance.

U “Printing CAD Drawings” on page 59

U “Specifications Table” on page 230

Checking current operating status even from afar thanks to an alert lamp

Errors such as ink or paper running out are immediately obvious even at a distance, thanks to the large, highly visible alert lamp.

Smooth operation while checking the operating instructions on the screen

In addition to having a screen design that enables intuitive operation, this printer allows you to check illustrated instructions of operations such as how to load paper.

U Operator's Guide (booklet or PDF)

Introduction

Printer driver that is simple and easy to operate

Print settings can be optimized simply by choosing the desired use or target. This spares you the trouble of adjusting print settings individually. When you select a Source setting, printing failures due to paper loading mistakes are reduced because the size and type of paper loaded in the printer are applied automatically. In addition to checking the set conditions in an illustration in the printer driver, you can also check a detailed image in the preview screen before printing.

Support for wireless LAN connection

This printer can be freely placed where desired without considering cable routing because it can connect with a computer via a wireless LAN to print. Of course, it also supports a wired LAN connection.

Furthermore, even if your device is not connected to a LAN, this printer also allows printing by directly connecting with it using Wi-Fi Direct.

U “Switching to Wireless LAN” on page 30

U “Directly Connection Wirelessly (Wi-Fi Direct)”

on page 31

Installing a color sensor (SC-T5400M Series)

By installing a color sensor, shadows from creases are less likely to appear in the results of copies and scans.

The color sensor also improves the reproduction of highlighted parts when you copy or scan originals that have parts written in highlighter.

Notes on Usage and Storage

Notes when using the printer

Note the following points when using this printer to avoid breakdowns, malfunctions, and print quality decline.

❏ When using the printer, observe the operating

temperature and humidity range described in the "Specifications Table". U “Specifications Table” on page 230 Even when the conditions above are met, you may not be able to print properly if the environmental conditions are not suitable for the paper. Be sure to use the printer in an environment where the paper's requirements are met. For more details, see the documentation supplied with the paper. Also, when operating in dry areas, air conditioned environment, or under direct sunlight, maintain the appropriate humidity.

❏ Do not install the printer next to heat sources or

directly in the path of air from a ventilator or air conditioner. Failure to observe this precaution could result in the print head nozzles drying and clogging.

❏ The print head may not be capped (i.e., may not

move to the right-hand side) if an error occurs and the printer is turned off without first resolving the error. Capping is a function for automatically covering the print head with a cap (lid) to prevent the print head from drying out. In this case, turn on the power and wait a while until capping is performed automatically.

❏ When the power is on, do not remove the power

plug or cut the power at the breaker. The print head may not be capped properly. In this case, turn on the power and wait a while until capping is performed automatically.

❏ The printer may automatically perform print

head cleaning to maintain good printing quality. Please wait until cleaning finishes without opening any of the covers or turning off the power.

Introduction

Notes when not using the printer

If you are not using it, note the following points when storing the printer. If it is not stored correctly, you may not be able to print properly the next time it is used.

❏ When storing the printer, store it flat with the ink

cartridges installed. Do not place the printer tilted, upright, or upside down.

❏ If you do not print for a long time, the print head

nozzles may become clogged. We recommend that you print once a week to prevent the print head from clogging.

❏ The roller may leave an impression on paper that

is left in the printer. This can also cause wavy or curled paper resulting in paper feeding problems or the print head could be scratched. Remove any paper when storing.

❏ Store the printer after confirming that the print

head has been capped (the print head is positioned at the far right). If the print head is left uncapped for a long time, the print quality may decline.

Note:

If the print head is not capped, turn the printer on, and then turn it off.

❏ To prevent the accumulation of dust and other

foreign matter in the printer, close all covers before placing it in storage. If the printer will be not be used for an extended period, protect it with an anti-static cloth or other cover. The print head nozzles are very small, and they can become clogged easily if fine dust gets on the print head, and you may not be able to print properly.

❏ The print head may fail if the environmental

temperature becomes -10°C or lower. If the environmental temperature in the room or during transport is expected to become -10°C or lower, be sure to discharge the ink in advance. U “Handling if Transporting/Leaving the

Printer in an Environment of -10°C or Less” on page 226

Notes on handling ink cartridges

Note the following points when handling ink cartridges to maintain good print quality.

❏ The ink cartridges packaged with your printer are

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.

❏ We recommend that ink cartridges be stored at

room temperature out of direct sunlight and used before the expiry date printed on the packaging.

❏ To ensure good results, we recommend that all

the ink in the cartridge be used within a year of installation.

❏ Ink cartridges that have been stored at low

temperatures for an extended period should be allowed to return to room temperature over a period of at least four hours.

❏ Do not touch the IC chips on the ink cartridges.

You may not be able to print properly. U “Replacing Ink Cartridges” on page 183

❏ Install ink cartridges into all slots. You cannot

print if any of the slots are empty.

❏ Do not leave the printer without ink cartridges

installed. The ink in the printer may dry, preventing it from printing as expected. Leave ink cartridges in all slots even while you do not use the printer.

❏ The ink level and other data are stored in the IC

chip, allowing cartridges to be used after being removed and replaced.

❏ To avoid getting dirt on the ink supply port, store

the removed ink cartridge properly. The ink supply port has a valve in it so it does not need to be capped.

❏ 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.

SC-T5400 Series/SC-T5400M Series/SC-T3400 Series/SC-T3400N Series User's Guide

Introduction

❏ To maintain the quality of the print head, this

printer stops printing before ink cartridges are completely expended.

❏ Although the ink cartridges may contain recycled

materials, this does not affect printer function or performance.

❏ Do not dismantle or remodel ink cartridges. You

may not be able to print properly.

❏ Do not drop or otherwise subject an ink cartridge

to a strong impact. Ink may leak from the cartridge.

❏ A mixture of color inks may be used to print

black depending on the paper type and print quality settings even for black and white and grayscale printing.

Notes on handling paper

Note the following points when handling and storing the paper. If the paper is not in good condition, print quality may decline.

Check the documentation supplied with each paper.

❏ Do not wet the paper.

❏ Do not throw away the paper packaging as you

can use it for storing the paper.

❏ Avoid locations that are subject to direct sunlight,

excessive heat, or humidity.

❏ Keep cut sheets in their original package after

opening, and keep them in a flat place.

❏ Remove roll paper that is not in use from the

printer. Rewind it correctly and then store it in the original packaging that came with the roll paper. If you leave the roll paper in the printer for a long time, its quality may decline.

Notes on handling printed paper

To maintain long lasting, high quality print results, note the following points.

❏ Do not rub or scratch print outs. If they are

rubbed or scratched, the ink may peel off.

❏ Do not touch the surface of print outs. The ink

may peel off.

Notes on Handling

❏ Use Epson special media under normal room

conditions (temperature: 15 to 25°C, humidity: 40 to 60%).

❏ Do not fold the paper or scratch the surface of the

paper.

❏ Avoid touching the printable surface of the paper

with your bare hands. Moisture and oils from your hands can affect print quality.

❏ Handle paper by the edges. We recommend

wearing cotton gloves.

❏ Changes in temperature and humidity may cause

paper to become wavy or curled. Check the following points.

❏ Load the paper just before printing.

❏ Do not use wavy or curled paper.

For roll paper, cut off the wavy or curled parts and then load it again. For cut sheets, use new paper.

❏ Make sure the print outs are completely dry

before folding of stacking; otherwise, the color may change where they touch (leaves a mark). These marks will disappear if they are separated immediately and dried; however, they will remain if not separated.

❏ If you put the print outs in an album before they

are completely dry, they may be blurred.

❏ Do not use a dryer to dry the print outs.

❏ Avoid direct sunlight.

❏ Prevent color distortion while displaying or

storing the print outs by following the instructions in the paper's documentation.

Introduction

Note:

Typically, print outs and photos fade over time (color distortion) due to the effects of light and various constituents in the air. This also applies to Epson special media. However, with the correct storage method, the degree of color distortion can be minimized.

❏ See the documentation supplied with Epson special

media for detailed information on handling the paper after printing.

❏ The colors of photos, posters, and other printed

materials appear different under different lighting conditions (light sources

from this printer may also appear different under different light sources. * Light sources include sunlight, fluorescent light, incandescent light, and other types.

Media Adjust has three main types.

❏ Easy Adjustment

❏ Paper Feed Adjust

❏ Print Head Alignment

Perform Easy Adjustment in the following cases.

❏ Print results have streaks (horizontal banding or

uneven colors)

❏ Duplicated ruled lines, warped lettering, or grainy

printing

❏ When registered with custom paper settings

Note: Adjustment for paper registered with custom paper settings

With roll paper and cut sheet, optimal paper settings will differ even when the paper types are the same. When registering roll paper and cut sheet with the same paper type, adjust for each of these. For details on custom paper setting, see the following Custom Paper Setting menu.

Notes on Making Adjustments

❏ Correctly load the paper that actually requires

adjustment and then select the paper type that matches the loaded paper.

❏ If paper with visible curls, wrinkles, waves, folds,

or bends is used, correct adjustment may not be possible. Remove curled, wavy, or folded sections by cutting them off.

❏ Ensure that light from outside (direct sunlight,

etc.) does not enter the interior of the printer. If this occurs, the printer may not be able to correctly read the adjustment pattern. If light enters the interior of the printer and automatic adjustment is not possible, then carry out manual adjustment. U “The prints are not what you expected” on

page 193

❏ Automatic adjustment is not possible for

transparent or colored media. Use manual adjustment. U “The prints are not what you expected” on

However, if a problem with print results can be specified, then perform the following adjustment in accordance with the situation.

❏ If print results have streaks (horizontal banding

or uneven colors): Perform Paper Feed Adjust - Auto U “Paper Feed Adjust (Auto)” on page 47

❏ If duplicated ruled lines, warped lettering, or

Cut Sheets: No margins for the left and right only

When printing borderless for all edges, you can also configure the cutting operation.

U “About Roll Paper Cutting” on page 71

When performing left and right borderless printing, margins appear on the top and bottom of the paper.

Top and bottom margin values U “Printable area” on page 223

Types of Borderless Printing

Create the print data larger than the paper size in the applications to produce borderless output. The printer driver does not enlarge the image data. Use settings such as Page Setup in the applications to set the size of the image data as follows.

• Create print data larger than its actual print size by 3 mm on the left and right (6 mm in total).

• If the application has margin settings, set the margins to 0 mm.

• Make the image data as large as the paper size.

Select this setting if you want to avoid image enlargement by the printer driver.

Methods

You can perform borderless printing using the following two methods.

❏ Auto Expand

The printer driver enlarges the print data to a size slightly larger than the paper size and prints the enlarged image. The sections which are beyond the paper edges are not printed; therefore, resulting in borderless printing. Use settings such as Page Setup in the applications to set the size of the image data as follows.

• Match the paper size and page setting for the print data.

• If the application has margin settings, set the margins to 0 mm.

• Make the image data as large as the paper size.

About Roll Paper Cutting

When performing borderless printing on roll paper, you can specify whether it is left and right borderless printing or all edges borderless printing, and how to cut the paper in the printer driver's Roll Paper Option. The cutting operation for each value is shown in the following chart.

Printer driver

settings

Cutting Operation

Explanation

Borderless Single Cut Double Cut

The default printer driver setting is Borderless.

❏ The top area may become

slightly uneven depending on the image since the print operation stops while cutting the top edge of the roll paper.

❏ When you print one page

only or print one page multiple times, the operation is the same as that for Double Cut. When continuously printing multiple sheets, the printer cuts 1 mm inside on the top edge of the first page and the bottom edge of the subsequent pages to avoid showing margins.

❏ The top area may become

slightly uneven depending on the image since the print operation stops while cutting the top edge of the roll paper.

❏ The printed paper is

approximately 2 mm shorter than the specified size since the printer cuts the paper inside the image to avoid showing top and bottom margins.

❏ After cutting the bottom

edge of the previous page, the printer feeds the paper, and then cuts the top edge of the following page. Although this produces 60 to 127 mm cut-off pieces, the cut is more accurate.

Color Management Printing

About Color Management

Even when using the same image data, the original image and the displayed image may look different, and the printed results may look different to the image you see on the display. This occurs due to the difference in characteristics when input devices such as scanners and digital cameras capture colors as electronic data, and when output devices such as display screens and printers reproduce colors from the color data. The color management system is a means to adjust differences in color conversion characteristics among input and output devices. A color management system is included with operating systems such as Windows and Mac OS, in addition to image processing applications. Windows and Mac OS X include the ICM and ColorSync color management systems, respectively.

Color Management Print Settings

You can perform color management printing using this printer's printer driver in the following two ways.

Choose the best method according to the application you are using, the operating system environment, the aim of the print out, and so on.

Setting color management with the applications

This method is for printing from applications that support color management. All color management processes are carried out by the application's color management system. This method is useful when you want to obtain the same color management print results using a common application among different operating system environments.

U “Setting color management with the applications”

on page 79

Setting color management with the printer driver

In a color management system, a color definition file called a "Profile" is used to perform color matching between devices. (This file is also called an ICC profile.) The profile of an input device is called an input profile (or source profile), and the profile of an output device, such as a printer, is called a printer profile (or output profile). A profile is prepared for each media type in this printer's driver.

The color conversion areas by the input device and the color reproduction area by the output device differ. As a result, there are color areas that do not match even when performing color matching using a profile. In addition to specifying profiles, the color management system also specifies conversion conditions for areas where color matching failed as "intent". The name and type of intent vary depending on the color management system you are using.

You cannot match the colors on the printed results and display by color management between the input device and the printer. To match both colors, you need to perform color management between the input device and the display as well.

The printer driver uses the operating system's color management system and carries out all color management processes. You can configure the color management settings in the printer driver using the following two methods.

❏ Host ICM (Windows) / ColorSync (Mac OS X)

Set when printing from applications that support color management. This is effective in producing similar print results from different applications under the same operating systems. U “Color Management Printing by Host ICM

Intent Explanation

Relative Colorimetric

Absolute Colorimetric

Converts the data so that a set of color gamut and white point (or color temperature) coordinates in the original data match their corresponding print coordinates. This feature is used for many types of color matching.

Assigns absolute color gamut coordinates to the original and print data and converts the data. Therefore, color tone adjustment is not performed on any white point (or color temperature) for the original or print data. This feature is used for special purposes such as logo color printing.

Check other settings, and then start printing.

If you select Driver ICM (Advanced), you can specify the profile and intent for each of image data such as photos, graphics data, and text data.

Intent Explanation

Saturation Keeps the current saturation

unchanged and converts the data.

Perceptual Converts the data so that a

more visually natural image is produced. This feature is used when a wider gamut of color is used for image data.
