Introduction

Important Safety Instructions

Before using this product, read and follow these safety instructions:

■ Use only the power cord that comes with the

product. Use of another cord may cause fire or shock. Do not use the cord with any other equipment.

■ Make sure the power cord meets all relevant

local safety standards.

■ Use only the type of power source indicated on

the label.

■ Place the product near a wall outlet where the

power cord can be easily unplugged.

■ Do not let the power cord become damaged or

frayed.

■ If you use an extension cord with the product,

make sure the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord’s ampere rating. Also, make sure the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s ampere rating.

■ Avoid locations that are subject to rapid changes

in heat or humidity, shocks or vibrations, or dust.

■ Leave enough room around the product for

sufficient ventilation. Do not block or cover openings in the case or insert objects through the slots.

■ Do not place the product near a radiator or

heating vent or in direct sunlight.

■ Place the product on a flat, stable surface that

extends beyond its base in all directions. It will not operate properly if it is tilted or at an angle.

■ Make sure the back of the product is at least

10 cm away from the wall.

■ Do not open the scanner unit while copying,

printing, or scanning.

■ Do not spill liquid on the product.

■ Except as specifically explained in your

documentation, do not attempt to service the product yourself.

■ Unplug the product and refer servicing to

qualified service personnel under the following conditions: if the power cord or plug is damaged; if liquid has entered the product; if the product has been dropped or the case damaged; if the product does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions.

■ When storing or transporting the product, do not

tilt it, stand it on its side, or turn it upside down; otherwise ink may leak from the cartridges.

■ Be careful not to trap your fingers when closing

the scanner unit.

Ink cartridge safety instructions

■ Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children

and do not drink the ink.

■ Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges;

there may be ink remaining around the ink supply port. If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If you still have discomfort or vision problems, see a doctor immediately.

■ Do not put your hand inside the product or

touch any cartridges during printing.

■ Install a new ink cartridge immediately after you

remove an expended cartridge. Leaving cartridges uninstalled can dehydrate the print head and may prevent the product from printing.

■ If you remove an ink cartridge for later use,

protect the ink supply area from dirt and dust and store it in the same environment as the product. Note that there is a valve in the ink supply port, making covers or plugs unnecessary, but care is needed to prevent the ink from staining items that the cartridge touches. Do not touch the ink cartridge, ink supply port, or surrounding area.

English

■ Do not use aerosol products that contain

flammable gases inside or around the product. Doing so may cause fire.

Handling Paper

Epson offers an extensive line of special papers that provide outstanding results when used with Epson printers and ink. The type of paper you choose affects the way your printout looks, so be sure to select the correct paper for your job.

Selecti ng Pa per

If you are just making a copy or printing a rough draft of an image, plain paper is fine. However, for the best results, you will want to use one of Epson’s special ink jet papers designed for the product.

Before printing, you need to select the correct Paper Type setting on the control panel. This important setting determines how the ink is applied to the paper.

Choose from these paper types and settings:
