Read and follow these instructions to ensure safe use of this printer. Make sure you keep this manual for future reference. Also, be sure to follow all warnings and instructions marked on the printer.
Use only the power cord supplied with the printer and do not use the cord with any other equipment. Use of other cords with this printer or the use of the supplied power cord with other equipment may result in fire or electric shock.
Be sure your AC power cord meets the relevant local safety standard.
Never disassemble, modify, or attempt to repair the power cord, plug, printer unit, scanner unit, or options by yourself, except as specifically explained in the printer's manuals.
Unplug the printer and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
The power cord or plug is damaged; liquid has entered the printer; the printer has been dropped or the casing damaged; the printer does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. Do not adjust controls that are not covered by the operating instructions.
Place the printer near a wall outlet where the plug can be easily unplugged.
Do not place or store the printer outdoors, near excessive dirt or dust, water, heat sources, or in locations subject to shocks, vibrations, high temperature or humidity.
Take care not to spill liquid on the printer and not to handle the printer with wet hands.
Keep the printer at least 22 cm away from cardiac pacemakers. Radio waves from this printer may adversely affect the operation of cardiac pacemakers.
If the LCD screen is damaged, contact your dealer. If the liquid crystal solution gets on your hands, wash them thoroughly with soap and water. If the liquid crystal solution gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If discomfort or vision problems remain after a thorough flushing, see a doctor immediately.
Avoid using a telephone during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
Do not use a telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
Be careful not to touch any ink when you handle the ink tanks, ink tank caps, and opened ink bottles or ink bottle caps.
If ink gets on your skin, wash the area thoroughly with soap and water.
If ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If discomfort or vision problems continue after a thorough flushing, see a doctor immediately.
If ink gets into your mouth, see a doctor right away.
Do not tilt or shake an ink bottle after removing its seal; this can cause leakage.
Keep ink bottles and the ink tank unit out of the reach of children. Do not allow children to drink from or handle the ink bottles and ink bottle cap.
Read and follow these instructions to avoid damaging the printer or your property. Make sure you keep this manual for future reference.

Important Instructions
Do not block or cover the vents and openings in the printer.
Use only the type of power source indicated on the printer's label.
Avoid using outlets on the same circuit as photocopiers or air control systems that regularly switch on and off.
Avoid electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers.
Keep the entire computer system away from potential sources of electromagnetic interference, such as loudspeakers or the base units of cordless telephones.
The power-supply cords should be placed to avoid abrasions, cuts, fraying, crimping, and kinking. Do not place objects on top of the power-supply cords and do not allow the power-supply cords to be stepped on or run over. Be particularly careful to keep all the power-supply cords straight at the ends and the points where they enter and leave the transformer.
If you use an extension cord with the printer, make sure that the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord's ampere rating. Also, make sure that the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet's ampere rating.
If you plan to use the printer in Germany, the building installation must be protected by a 10 or 16 amp circuit breaker to provide adequate short-circuit protection and over-current protection for the printer.
When connecting the printer to a computer or other device with a cable, ensure the correct orientation of the connectors. Each connector has only one correct orientation. Inserting a connector in the wrong orientation may damage both devices connected by the cable.
Place the printer on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond the base of the printer in all directions. The printer will not operate properly if it is tilted at an angle.
Allow space above the printer so that you can fully raise the document cover.
Leave enough space in front of the printer for the paper to be fully ejected.
Avoid places subject to rapid changes in temperature and humidity. Also, keep the printer away from direct sunlight, strong light, or heat sources.
Do not insert objects through the slots in the printer.
Do not put your hand inside the printer during printing.
Do not touch the white flat cable and ink tubes inside the printer.
Do not use aerosol products that contain flammable gases inside or around the printer. Doing so may cause fire.
Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise, you may damage the printer.
Be careful not to trap your fingers when closing the scanner unit.
Do not press too hard on the scanner glass when placing the originals.
Prolonged use of the printer when the ink level is below the lower line could damage the printer. Epson recommends filling the ink tank to the upper line when the printer is not operating to reset the ink level.
Always turn the printer off using the P button. Do not unplug the printer or turn off the power at the outlet until the P light stops flashing.
If you are not going to use the printer for a long period, be sure to unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.

Important Instructions
When storing or transporting the printer, avoid tilting it, placing it vertically, or turning it upside down; otherwise ink may leak.
Before transporting the printer, make sure that the print head is in the home (far right) position.
Radio waves from this printer may negatively affect the operation of medical electronic equipment, causing them to malfunction. When using this printer inside medical facilities or near medical equipment, follow directions from the authorized personnel representing the medical facilities, and follow all posted warnings and directions on the medical equipment.
Radio waves from this printer may negatively affect the operation of automatically controlled devices such as automatic doors or fire alarms, and could lead to accidents due to malfunction. When using this printer near automatically controlled devices, follow all posted warnings and directions on these devices.
The LCD screen may contain a few small bright or dark spots, and because of its features it may have an uneven brightness. These are normal and do not indicate that it is damaged in any way.
Only use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid or chemical cleaners.
The exterior cover of the LCD screen could break if it receives a heavy impact. Contact your dealer if the screen's surface chips or cracks, and do not touch or attempt to remove the broken pieces.
When you give the printer to someone else or dispose of it, erase all the personal information stored in the printer's memory by selecting Setup > Restore Default Settings > Clear All Data and Settings on the control panel.

Basic Settings |
Fax Speed |
Select the fax transmission speed. |
|
|
We recommend selecting Slow(9,600bps) when a communication error |
|
|
occurs frequently, when sending/receiving a fax to/from abroad, or when you |
|
|
are using an IP (VoIP) phone service. |
|
|
|
|
ECM |
Automatically corrects errors in the fax transmission (Error Correction Mode), |
|
|
mostly caused by telephone line noise. If this is disabled, you cannot send or |
|
|
receive documents in color. |
|
|
|
|
Dial Tone Detection |
Detects a dial tone before starting to dial. |
|
|
If the printer is connected to a PBX (Private Branch Exchange) or digital phone |
|
|
line, the printer may fail to start dialing. In this situation, change the Line |
|
|
Type setting to PBX. If this does not work, disable this feature. However, |
|
|
disabling this feature may drop the first digit of a fax number and send the |
|
|
fax to the wrong number. |
|
|
|
|
Dial Mode |
Select the type of phone system to which you have connected the printer. |
|
|
When set to Pulse, you can temporarily switch the dialing mode from pulse |
|
|
to tone by pressing ("T" is entered) while entering numbers on the fax top |
|
|
screen. Depending on the region, this setting may not be displayed. |
|
|
|
|
Line Type |
Select the line type to which you have connected the printer. For more |
|
|
details, see the page that describes basic fax settings. |
|
|
|
|
Header |
Enter your sender name and fax number. These appear as a header on |
|
|
outgoing faxes. |
|
|
You can enter up to 40 characters for your name, and up to 20 digits for your |
|
|
fax number. |
|
|
|
Security Settings |

Fax documents deleted by using the control panel disappear from the LCD |
|
Clear |
screen, but their backups are temporarily stored in the memory. The |
|
|
following features delete backups. |
|
Clear Backup Data |
|
|
Backup Data Auto Clear: Automatically deletes backups each time a sent or |
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
someone else or dispose of it. |
|
|

|
Connection |
check result on A4 size plain paper. |

Loading Paper
Read the instruction 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, flatten it or curl it slightly in the opposite direction before loading. Printing on curled paper may cause paper jams and smears on the printout.
Do not use paper that is wavy, torn, cut, folded, damp, too thick, too thin, or paper that has stickers stuck to it. Using these types of paper causes paper jams and smears on the printout.
Fan and align the edges of the envelopes before loading. When the stacked envelopes are puffed up with air, press them down to flatten them before loading.
Do not use envelopes that are curled or folded. Using these envelopes causes paper jams and smears on the printout.
Do not use envelopes with adhesive surfaces on the flaps or window envelopes.
Avoid using envelopes that are too thin, as they may curl during printing.
