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.
When choosing a place for the printer
■Place the printer on a flat, stable surface that
extends beyond the base of the printer in all
directions. If you place the printer by the wall,
leave more than 10 cm between the back of the
printer and the wall. The printer will not operate
properly if it is tilted at an angle.
■When storing or transporting the printer, do not
tilt it, stand it on its side, or turn it upside down.
Otherwise, ink may leak from the cartridges.
■Leave enough room around the printer to allow
for sufficient ventilation.
■Place the printer near a wall outlet where the plug
can be easily unplugged.
When using the printer
Take care not to spill liquid on the printer.
When using a memory card
■Do not remove the memory card or turn off the
printer while the computer and the memory card
are communicating (when the memory card lights
is flashing.).
■The methods for using memory cards vary
according to card type. Be sure to refer to the
documentation packaged with your memory card
for details.
■Use only memory cards compatible with the
printer. Refer to Loading Memory Cards.
When using LCD panel
■The LCD panel may contain a few small bright or
dark spots. These are normal and do not mean that
they are damaged in any way.
■Only use a dry, soft cloth to clean the LCD panel.
Do not use liquid or chemical cleansers.
■If the LCD panel on your printer's control panel 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.
When using the optional Bluetooth Photo
Print Adapter
Refer to the Bluetooth Photo Print Adapter's
documentation for the safety instructions.
When handling the ink cartridges
■Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children.
Do not allow children to drink from or handle the
cartridges.
■Avoid places subject to rapid changes in
temperature and humidity. Also, keep the printer
away from direct sunlight, strong light, or heat
sources.
2Notices
■Do not shake the ink cartridges; this can cause
leakage.
■Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges,
as there may be some ink remaining around the
ink supply port. 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 remain
after a thorough flushing, see a doctor
immediately.
■Do not remove or tear the label on the cartridge;
this can cause leakage.
■Install the ink cartridge immediately after you
remove it from its package. If you leave a cartridge
unpacked for a long time before using it, normal
printing may not be possible.
■Do not touch the green IC chip on the back of the
cartridge. Doing so may prevent normal operation
and printing.

Storing Your Printouts
With proper care, photographs from your printer will
last for many years. The special Epson inks designed
for your printer are formulated to achieve improved
light fastness when used with Epson paper and the
prints are properly displayed or stored.
As with traditional photos, proper care will minimize
color changes and lengthen display life:
■For display, Epson recommends that prints be
framed under glass or a protective plastic sleeve
to protect them from atmospheric contaminants
like humidity, cigarette smoke, and high levels of
ozone.
■As with all photographs, keep your prints away
from high temperatures and humidity and out of
direct sunlight.
■For proper storage, Epson recommends that you
keep prints in a photo album or plastic photo
storage box in acid-free, archival sleeves
commonly available at most camera stores.
Be sure to follow any other storage and display
instructions included in the paper package.

❏ Use only one type of memory card at a time. Eject the loaded
memory card before inserting another kind of memory card.
❏ Close the memory card slot cover when the memory card is in
operation to protect the memory card from static electricity. If you
touch the memory card when it is inserted in the printer, it may

After a moment, the printer reads and counts the
number of images on your card. When it’s done,
your images are available for printing (see
page 11).
Saving your photos to an external
device
If you don’t have a computer, you can save photos that
are on your camera’s memory card to an external
device that you connect directly to your printer. This
lets you delete the images on your memory card and
reuse it without losing your original photos. Follow
the steps below to save your photos to a Zip disk,
CD-R, DVD-R, or thumb drive:
Note:
Epson cannot guarantee the compatibility of any cameras or drives.
If you’re not sure about your camera or drive, you can try connecting
it. If it’s not compatible, you’ll see a screen saying that the connected
device cannot be used.
1.Make sure the printer is turned on and the
memory card you want to back up is inserted in
the printer.
Printing Directly from a
Digital Camera
PictBridge and USB DIRECT-PRINT lets you print
your photos by connecting your digital camera
directly to the printer.
Connecting and Printing
1.Make sure your printer is not printing from a
computer.
2.Make sure that no memory card is loaded.
3.Turn the printer and load the type of paper you
want to use. (see page 7)
4.Use the printer’s control panel to adjust the print
setting. (e.g. Paper Type, Paper Size, and Layout)
5.Turn the digital camera, then connect the printer
and the digital camera with a USB cable.
2.If you are using a CD-R/RW drive or Zip drive,
plug it into an electrical outlet if required.
3.Connect a USB cable from your drive to the EXT I/F USB port on the front of the printer (see page 9).
4.Press the q Setup button on the printer.
5.Press the u or d button to highlight Backup, then
press the r button.
6.Press the OK button. When you see the “Starting
backup” message, press the OK button again to
start the backup procedure. You may have to
follow additional instructions on the printer
screen. All the photos on your card are copied to
your external storage drive. Depending on how
many photos there are, this may take several
minutes.
Note:
❏ Do not perform backup while printing from the computer to the
printer.
❏ Do not connect the external storage drive while the computer is
accessing the memory card in the printer.
❏ The format for writing to CD-R is Multisession (Mode 1) and the
file system is ISO 9660. Due to the ISO 9660 file system, the
contents of a memory card that has 8 or more folder levels cannot
be backed up to CD-R.
❏ The characters that can be used for folder and file names on the
CD-R are capitals and the underscore (_). Other characters are
changed to underscores when backing up to CD-R.
6.Use the digital cam era to select the photo you want
to print. Be sure to make the desired setting on the
digital camera because the digital camera settings
generally take precedence over the printer
settings.
7.Print from the digital camera.
Note:
❏ Do not backup before or while a digital camera is connected to
the printer.
❏ Some of the setting on your digital camera may not be reflected
in the output because of the printer’s specifications.
❏ Depending on the type of digital camera, images containing
DPOF information may not be available for CD/DVD printing.
