Safety Precautions
All safety procedures described here shall be strictly adhered to by all parties servicing and maintaining this
product.
DANGER
Strictly observe the following cautions. Failure to comply could result in serious bodily injury or loss of life.
1. Always disconnect the product from the power source and peripheral devices when servicing the product or
performing maintenance.
2. When performing works described in this manual, do not connect to a power source until instructed to do so.
Connecting to a power source causes high voltage in the power supply unit and some electronic components
even if the product power switch is off. If you need to perform the work with the power cable connected to a
power source, use extreme caution to avoid electrical shock.
WARNING
Strictly observe the following cautions. Failure to comply may lead to personal injury or loss of life.
1. Always wear protective goggles for disassembly and reassembly to protect your eyes from ink in working. If
any ink gets in your eyes, wash your eyes with clean water and consult a doctor immediately.
2. 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.
PRECAUTIONS
Strictly observe the following cautions. Failure to comply may lead to personal injury or damage of the product.
1. Repairs on Epson product should be performed only by an Epson certified repair technician.
2. No work should be performed on this product by persons unfamiliar with basic safety knowledge required for
electrician.
3. The power rating of this product is indicated on the serial number/rating plate. Never connect this product to
the power source whose voltages is different from the rated voltage.
4. Replace malfunctioning components only with those components provided or approved by Epson;
introduction of second-source ICs or other non-approved components may damage the product and void any
applicable Epson warranty.
5. The capacitors on the Main Board may be electrically charged right after the power turns off or after driving
motors which generates counter electromotive force such as when rotating the PF Roller or when moving the
CR Unit. There is a risk to damage the Main Board if the Head FFC is short-circuited with the capacitors on
the Main Board electrically charged, therefore, after the power turns off or after motors are driven, leave the
printer untouched for approximately 30 seconds to discharge the capacitors before starting disassembly/
reassembly.
6. To prevent the circuit boards from short-circuiting, be careful about the following when handling FFC or
cables.
When handling FFC, take care not to let the terminal section of FFC touch metal parts.
When connecting cables/FFC to the connectors on circuit boards, connect them straight to the connectors to avoid
slant insertion.
Confidential
7. In order to protect sensitive microprocessors and circuitry, use static discharge equipment, such as anti-static
wrist straps, when accessing internal components.
8. Do not tilt this product immediately after initial ink charge, especially after performing the ink charge several
times. Doing so may cause ink to leak from the product because it may take some time for the waste ink pads
to completely absorb ink wasted due to the ink charge.
9. 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.
10. When disassembling or assembling this product, make sure to wear gloves to avoid injuries from metal parts
with sharp edges.

3-3.After the PE Sensor checks if paper exists, the PF Motor rotates clockwise for one second and releases the CR lock.
3-4.While checking if the CR Unit does not touch the Change Lever (CR lock) or the foreign material, the CR Unit
moves to the 80-digit side slowly until it touches the Left Frame.
3-5.The distance from the position where the CR Unit touched to the Left Frame is regarded as the standard distance
from the origin position, and the home position is fixed.
From then on, the CR Unit position is monitored according to the signals from the CR Encoder.
3-6.The CR Unit moves to near its home position quickly.
4. Detecting ink cartridge and initializing ink system
4-1.To detect ink, the CR Unit moves back and forth between near the Change Lever and near the Left Frame for two
times.

To recover from the maintenance error, the dedicated software that can be downloaded
from the web site which can be accessed from STM3 is required.
The printer operation related to the maintenance error recovery is as follows.
• When the waste ink counter reaches the threshold value (1) for the first time and the
maintenance error occurs, the counter threshold of the maintenance error is changed
to threshold value 2 after performing recovery from the maintenance error.
• After the threshold value (2) is enabled, the warning; to notify the possibility of ink
leakage out of the printer, is displayed every time the waste ink counter increases by
1%.
• If the waste ink counter reaches the threshold value (2), the maintenance error occurs.
Then, the waste ink counter is changed back to the threshold value (1) after recovering
from the maintenance error, and the warning is displayed repeatedly according to the
increment of the waste ink counter until the maintenance error occurs when the
threshold value (2) is reached.
(Recovery from the maintenance error can be performed up to the specified number
of times.)

2.1.5 Checks and Precautions before Disassembling
2.1.5.1 Factors which Affect the Print Quality
HOW TO PLACE THE INK TANK ASSY WHEN DISASSEMBLING/REASSEMBLING
The film under sealing film attached on the Ink Supply Tank Assy of this printer is ventilation film. The ink in the
ink tanks is vented to atmosphere through this film to keep ink supply to the Printhead stable. If the film gets wet
with ink, the ink in the tanks is not properly vented and printing may not be capable.
In order to prevent this from occurring, make sure to place the Ink Supply Tank Assy as shown below after
removing it.

MEANS DO TO MINIMIZE THE INK SPILL
Even observing the points described in this section, ink may spill in the following situations.
Therefore, be careful not to contaminate the inside of the printer or its surroundings by
preparing the container to receive the leaked ink, or the like.
When removing the Ink Supply Tank Tube Assy (w/Valve Assy), some ink will spill from
both ends of the tube even the Valve Lever is closed.
When removing the Ink Supply Tube Assy, all the ink in the tube will spill.
Before disassembling, confirm that the printer is in the following condition.
Choke Valve is closed
Do not turn the Valve Lever too much when closing the Choke Valve, otherwise, the Valve
Lever and/or Valve Assy may get damaged.
Before disassembling:
Turn the Valve Lever and be sure to close the Choke Valve.
After reassembling is complete:
Open the Choke Valve to perform the print inspection.
Before returning the printer to the user after repairing:
Make sure to turn the Valve Lever up to the choke position to close the Choke Valve before packing the printer.

M200 / M205 / M100 / M105 Series
3.1 Required Adjustments
The table from the following page lists the required adjustments depending upon the parts being repaired or
replaced. Find the part(s) you removed or replaced, and check which adjustment(s) must be carried out.
If the EEPROM data cannot be read out from the old Main Board using the Adjustment
Program when replacing the Main Board is required, the Waste Ink Pad Assy must be
replaced with the Main Board at the same time.
After all required adjustments are completed, use the “Final check pattern print”
function to print all adjustment patterns for final check. If you find a problem with the
printout patterns, carry out the adjustment again.
When replacing the Main Board, the adjustment should be made after performing the
initial setting.
In this chapter, the product names are called as follows:
• M200 Series:M200/M201
• M205 Series:M205
• M100 Series:M100/M101
• M105 Series:M105
The table items and marks used in the “Required Adjustment List” provided on the
following pages have the following meanings.
• “O” indicates that the adjustment must be carried out.
• “---” indicates that the adjustment is not required.
• The “Mechanism Adjustment” should be performed just after reinstalling or
reassembling the part or unit.
• The “Adjustments using the Adjustment Program” need to be performed after
reassembling the printer completely.
If you have removed or replaced multiple parts, make sure to check the required
adjustments for the all parts. And when multiple adjustments must be carried out, be
sure to carry out them in the order given in the “Priority” row.

3.3 Mechanism Adjustment / Check
This section provides the procedure for the mechanism adjustment and check.
3.3.1 Checking the Platen Gap
This section describes the procedure for checking the platen gap (PG).
This printer does not have any PG adjustment mechanism, however, it is designed so that the
platen gap can fall within the expected range if you correctly reassemble the unit (including
using the Epson-specified jigs) according to this manual. If the PG cannot fall within the
standard range after performing the platen gap check described in this section, first check if
the unit is correctly reassembled following the instructions in this manual. Even if the unit is
correctly reassembled but the PG still cannot fall within the standard range, replace the unit
with a new/refurbished one.
The standard range of the PG is as follows:
• Standard: 1.8 ± 0.2 mm
Tools
Thickness gauge: 1.6 mm (x2), 2.0 mm (x2)
Confirmation procedure
Revision A
When checking the PG, make sure of the following.
Check the PG with new ink cartridges installed to the CR Unit, and also with all parts
related to the PG installed to the printer (p 60).
Move the CR Unit by pulling the CR Timing Belt.
Be careful not to damage the nozzles of the Printhead with the thickness gauge.

3.3.2 CR/PF Belt Tension Check
This section describes the CR/PF Belt tension check.
This printer is designed so that the each tension of the CR Timing Belt and PF Timing
Belt fall within the expected range if you correctly reassemble the unit according to this
manual. However, deformation of any related part(s) can cause improper tension of the
belt. In such case, replace the unit with a new/refurbished one.
The standard tension range is as follows:
• CR Timing Belt: 9 ± 1 N
• PF Timing Belt: 5 ± 2.5 N
Tools
Sonic tension meter (Parts code: 1294120)

4.1 Overview
This section provides information to maintain the printer in its optimum condition.
4.1.1 Cleaning
Except for the Printhead, there are no other mechanical parts or units that require periodic cleaning. However, if
need arises, clean the component observing the following instructions.
Instructions for cleaning
Exterior parts such as housing
Wipe dirt off with a soft clean cloth moistened with water. For glossy or transparent parts, use of unwoven cloth is
recommended to avoid scratching those parts.
Inside of the printer
Remove paper dust with a vacuum cleaner.
Rubber or plastic rollers such as an LD roller used to feed paper
If paper dust adhered to the rollers decreases the frictional force of the rollers and the rollers cannot properly feed
paper, wipe off the paper dust with a soft cloth moistened with diluted alcohol.
Instructions for cleaning ink stains
Wipe the stains off with a cloth wrung out of diluted alcohol.
Revision A
Do not use alcohol for cleaning the transparent parts. Doing so may cause them to get
cloudy.
When wiping paper dust off the LD Roller, be careful not to rub against the surface
asperity.
To minimize the effect on the parts, use diluted alcohol such as 70% diluted ether.
After using alcohol for cleaning, make sure to wipe the part off with a soft dry dust-free
cloth to remove alcohol traces fully.
4.1.2 Lubrication
The type and amount of the grease used to lubricate the printer parts are determined based on the results of the
internal evaluations. Therefore, refer to "4.2 Lubrication Points and Instructions (p75)" for the repairing
procedures below, and apply the specified type and amount of the grease to the specified part of the printer
mechanism.
"4.2 Lubrication Points and Instructions (p75)" also provides information about whether or not the parts which
require lubrication are supplied as ASP and the lubrication status when supplied as ASP. For the parts which are
not supplied as ASP, if their movement is not smooth enough, check their lubrication status and lubricate them if
necessary.

5.3 Protection for Transportation
This section describes the cautions for packing the printer before returning it to the user.
5.3.1 Securing the CR Unit
Purpose
To prevent damaging the Change Lever by shock during transportation.
Risks if it is not performed
Fatal error caused by the damage of the Change Lever.
Preparation
Prepare a piece of strong tape
Multifunction Printer
Length: 180 mm, width: 14 mm, fold one end 5 ± 2 mm.
Singlefunction Printer
Length: 180 mm, width: 22 mm, fold one end 5 ± 2 mm.
Method
In order to prevent damaging the Change Lever, the CR Unit should be secured at the
position indicated in Step 2. Therefore, when securing the CR Unit with strong tape, hold
the Timing Belt to keep the position of the CR Unit as is and avoid the CR Unit from
moving to the 0-digit side.
When securing the CR Unit of the multifunction printer, attach the strong tape so that the
gap between the strong tape and ink replacement label attached on the Housing Right is 2
± 1 mm.
Revision A
1. Turn off the printer to set the CR Unit to its home position.
2. Pull the CR Timing Belt, and move the CR Unit to the 80-digit side slightly so that the CR Unit can touch
the side of the tip on the Change Lever.
3. Attach the not-folded end of strong tape on the bottom of the CR Unit.
4. Attach the strong tape on to the Housing Right, and secure the CR Unit.
