Paper Handling Precautions

❏ Read the instruction sheets supplied with the paper.
❏ To achieve high-quality printouts with genuine Epson paper, use the paper in the environment stated on the
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, atten it or curl it slightly in the opposite direction before loading. Printing on curled
paper may cause paper jams and smears on the printout.
❏ Paper feed problems may occur frequently for manual 2-sided printing when printing on one side of pre-
printed paper. Reduce the number of sheets to half or less, or load one sheet of paper at a time if paper jams continue.
❏ Make sure you are using long-grain paper. If you are not sure what type of paper you are using, check the paper
packaging or contact the manufacturer to conrm the paper specications.
❏ Fan and align the edges of the envelopes before loading. When the stacked envelopes are pued up with air,
press them down to atten them before loading.
Paper Size and Type Settings
If you register the paper size and type on the screen displayed when you load paper, the printer informs you when the registered information and print settings dier. is prevents you from wasting paper and ink by making sure you are not printing on the wrong paper size or printing in the wrong color due to using settings that do not match the paper type.

Basic Information on Scanning

What is a "Scan"?

A "scan" is the process of converting the optical information of paper data (such as documents, magazine clippings, photos, handwritten illustrations, and so on) into digital image data.
You can save scanned data as a digital image such as a JPEG or PDF.
You can then print the image, send it by email, and so on.

Scanning Uses

You can use scanning in a variety of ways to make your life more convenient.
❏ By scanning a paper document and turning it into digital data, you can read it on a computer or a smart device.
❏ By scanning tickets or yers into digital data, you can dispose of the originals and reduce clutter.
❏ By scanning important documents, you can back them up to cloud services or another storage medium, just in
case they get lost.
❏ You can send the scanned photos or documents to friends by email.
❏ By scanning hand-drawn illustrations and so on, you can share them on social media at a much higher quality
than by just taking a photo on your smart device.
❏ By scanning your favorite pages from newspapers or magazines, you can save them and dispose of the originals.

Available Scanning Methods

You can use any of the following methods to scan using this printer.
Scanning to a Computer
ere are two methods of scanning originals to a computer; scanning using the printer’s control panel, and scanning from the computer.

Scanning Using WSD
You can save the scanned image to a computer connected to the printer, using WSD feature.
If you are using the Windows 7/Windows Vista, you need to make WSD settings on your computer before scanning.
Scanning Directly from Smart Devices
You can save scanned images directly to a smart device such as a smart phone or tablet by using the Epson Smart Panel application on the smart device.

Recommended File Formats to Suit Your Purpose

Generally speaking, the JPEG format is suitable for photos while the PDF format is suitable for documents.
