 Trimming Function

A trimming function is provided as a means of coordinating an image with the type

s of photo frames handled by the printer. This function can be switched On/

Off. This function is described briefly below.

The printed photo frame and an image to be printed are matched in length along one side and the image is resized along the perpendicular side to fit the frame on that side. Any part of the image that does not fit within the photo frame is trimmed away (not printed). However, if the number of pixels of the longer side of the image are more than twice as long as the shortest side, the trimming function is not effective when printing even the trimming is set. The trimming function is always set On if borderless or upper half layout is selected.

Figure 1-7. Trimming Function (

when trimming is

being operated)

Figure 1-8. Trimming Function (when trimming

is not operated)

 Rules on Numbering and Rotating Images

The numbers shown in the figure below indicate the photo frame numbers used for th

e print

layout. Horizontally oriented images are printed as shown by the numbers. Vertically oriented images, which has more pixels vertically than horizontally, the vertical photo data is allocated instead, and the number shown in the figure below is then rotated 90 degrees before being printed. In Index printing mode, the numbers are printed as they are shown below, regardless of the shape of the photo data.

However, when the photo data has an equal number of pixels vertically and horizontally the photos are printed without rotation, regardless of the layout.

NOTE: The verti

cal photo da

ta refers to when the photo data file itself is set for a vertical (portrait) orientation. Photo data is defined as the vertical photo data if it is taken by a digital camera with a portrait position detecting function.)

3.1 Overview

This chapter describes how to solve problems.

3.1.1 Specified Tools

This printer does not require any specified tools for troubleshooting.

3.1.2 Preliminary Checks

Before starting troubleshooting, be sure to verify that the following conditions are all met:

 The power supply voltage must be within the specification limits. (Measure the

voltage at the wall socket.)

 The p

ower code must be free from damage, short circuit or breakage, or mi

swiring

in the power code.

 The printer must be grounded properly.

 The printer should not be located in a place where it can be exposed to too high or

low temperature,

too high or low humidity, or abrupt temperature change.

 The printer should not be located near waterworks, near humidifiers, near

heaters or near flames, in a dusty atmosphere or in a place where the printer can be exposed to blast from an air conditioner.

 The printer should not be located in a place where volatile or inflammable gases

are produced.

 The printer should not be located in a

place where it can be exposed to direct rays

of t

he sun.

 The printer must be placed on a strong and steady level table (without an

inclina

tion larger than five degrees).

 Any vibrating equipment must not be placed on or under the printer.

 The

paper used must conform to

the specification.

 There is no error in handling of the printer.

 Check the inside of the printer, and remove foreign

matters if any, such as paper

clips, staples, bits of paper, paper dust or toner.

 Clean the inside of the printer and the rubber rolls.

W A R N I N G

 Be careful to avoid electric shocks when checking the electrical

circuit boards while the power is turned on.

 Touching an FET, transistor or heat sink with one hand while

touching a m

etal part of the mechanism with the other hand

could result in an electric shock, so carefully avoid this.

 After initial filling of ink has

been repeated several times,

immediate moving or tilting

of the printer could result in leaking of ink that has not been completely absorbed by the Waste Ink Pad. When initial filling of ink has been repeated several times, check the ink remaining in the tip of the Waste Ink Tube and the waste ink not absorbed by the Waste Ink Pad before moving the printer.

C H E C K

P O I N T

 Disassembly and reassembly of parts is often required when

identifying the causes of problems. The parts should be disassembled and re-assembled correctly while referring to

“DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY” (p

.93) so that the operation

and status of e

ach check item can be correctly verified.

 Som

e individual part and units may require adjustment once they are removed or replaced. If removing or replacing parts which have specific instructions fo

r adjustment included in

“DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY” (p

.93), be sure to make thes

adjustments after repairing the problem location.

4.1 Overview

This section describes procedures for disassembling the main components of Epson Artisan 700/Epson Stylus Photo PX700W/TX700W. Unless otherwise specified, disassembled units or components can be reassembled by reversing the disassembly procedure. Procedures which, if not strictly observed, could result in personal injury are described under the heading “WARNING”. “CAUTION” signals a precaution which, if ignored, could result in damage to equipment. Important tips for procedures are described under the heading “CHECK POINT”. If the assembly procedure is different from the reversed disassembly procedure, the correct procedure is described under the heading “REASSEMBLY”. Any adjustments required after reassembly of components or parts are described under the heading “ADJUSTMENT REQUIRED”. When you have to remove any components or parts that are not described in this chapter, refer to the exploded diagrams in the appendix.

Read the following precautions before

disassembling and assembling.

4.1.1 Precautions

See the precautions given under the heading “WARNING” and “CAUTION” in the following columns when disassembling or assembling Epson Artisan 700/Epson Stylus Photo PX700W/ TX700W.

W A R N I N G

 Disconnect the power cable before disassembling or

assembling the printer.

 If you need to work on the printer with power applied, strictly

follow the instructions in this manual.

 Always wear gloves for disassembly and reassembly to protect

your eyes from ink. If any ink gets in your eyes, wash your eyes with clean water and consult a doctor immediately.

 Always wear gloves for disassembly and reassembly to avoid

injury from sharp metal edges.

 To protect sensitive microprocessors and circuitry, use static

discharge equipment, such as anti-static wrist straps, when accessing internal components.

 Never touch the ink or wasted ink with bare hands. If ink

comes into contact with your skin, wash it off with soap and water immediately. If you have a skin irritation, consult a doctor immediately.

W A R N I N G

 When powering this product, high-voltage current may be

applied on some parts. To prevent ELECTRIC SHOCK, do not touch the following parts when the power is ON. If the shock should happen, the flowing current is very tiny, about a few hundreds μA, therefore it will not do

any harm on the

human body.

• SUB Board

• Cap section of the Ink System

• The cables and terminals that connect above mentioned parts

C A U T I O N



When transporting the printer after installing the ink cartridge, pack the printer for transportation without removing the ink cartridge and be sure to secure the Ink Cartridge to the printer cover with tape tightly to keep it from moving.

 Use only recommended tools for disassembling, assembling or

adjusting the printer.

 Observe the specified torque when tightening screws.  Apply lubricants as specified. (See Chapter 6

“MAINTENANCE” (p247) for details.)

 Make the specified adjustments when you disassemble the

printer. (See Chapter 5 “ADJUSTMENT” (p209) for details.)

 When reassembling the Waste Ink Tube, make sure that the

tip of waste ink tube is placed in the correct position, otherwise ink may leak.

 When using compressed air products; such as air duster, for

cleaning during repair and maintenance, the use of such products containing flammable gas is prohibited.

 Improper usage of the tool may adversely affect the quality

seriously. Make sure to strictly observe the procedures in this manual to disassemble and assemble this product using proper tools.

 After disassembling/assembling, set the Transmission Arm to

the Ink System position to avoid a fatal error caused by the locked Carriage. (See “ 4.2.4.6 Ink System (p135) ”.)

When printing the CDR, the CDR Tray feed amount is adjusted with compensation considering the deterioration of the CDR Tray, and the correction level is determined by the number of printed CDRs. If the data on the EEPROM can not be copied when replacing the Main Board, banding may occur while printing CDR due to improper corrections caused because the data of the number of printed CDRs can not be transferred. When this happens, replace the CDR Tray Assy with a new one together with the Main Board. (See 4.2.4.8 "CDR Tray Assy"

(p140).)
