Introduction
Features of Printer
Realizing High Resolution
CAD drawings that are clear, legible, and can even be used safely outdoors
Newly-developed Epson UltraChrome XD2 ink
enables the printer to produce extremely detailed
drawings both in black and white and in color.
The supplied printer driver offers a line drawing
mode, making it easier to optimize printing for line
drawing and, through unsurpassed reproduction of
line drawing and fine lines in the form of connected
lines, diagonals, and curves, ensuring the best possible
results when the printer is used for drawings.
In addition, you can even safely take your drawings
outdoors with you because they are printed using ink
with excellent water resistance.
U “Specifications Table” on page 222
Automatic switching between auto sheet feeder (cut sheets) and roll paper
You can load roll paper in the printer, and load
multiple sheets of A3 or smaller paper in the auto
sheet feeder at the same time. Selecting one of them
from the printer driver's Source settings allows you to
automatically switch paper and print easily.
Smooth operation while checking the operating instructions on the screen
In addition to having a screen design that enables
intuitive operation, this printer allows you to check
illustrated instructions of operations such as how to
load paper.

Posters and displays that are vivid and also allow for short-term outdoor display
Posters with vivid hues can be printed simply by
selecting, for example, Poster (Photo)/Perspective in
Select Target of the supplied printer driver.
Using ink with superb light resistance means that
prints made for indoor use will take a very long time
to fade.
Your posters will last even longer if you use
lamination processing.
The effect differs depending on the paper.
Insistence on Ease-of-Use
Space-saving large-format printer
As the printer is smaller and lighter than our standard
large-format printers, it does not take up as much
space. The model without a stand can even be placed
on a drawing storage cabinet or the like. See the
following for dimensions.
Printer driver that is simple and easy to operate
Print settings can be optimized simply by choosing
the desired use or target. This saves you the trouble of
adjusting print settings individually. When you select
a Source setting, printing failures due to paper loading
mistakes are reduced because the size and type of
paper loaded in the printer are applied automatically.
In addition to checking the set conditions in an
illustration in the printer driver, you can also check a
detailed image in the preview screen before printing.
Support for wireless LAN connection
This printer can be freely placed where desired
without considering cable routing because it can
connect with a computer via a wireless LAN to print.
Of course, it also supports a wired LAN connection.
Furthermore, even if your device is not connected to a
LAN, this printer also allows printing by directly
connecting with it using Wi-Fi Direct.

Notes when using the printer
Note the following points when using this printer to
avoid breakdowns, malfunctions, and print quality
decline.
❏ When using the printer, observe the operating
temperature and humidity range described in the
"Specifications Table".
U “Specifications Table” on page 222
Even when the conditions above are met, you may
not be able to print properly if the environmental
conditions are not suitable for the paper. Be sure
to use the printer in an environment where the
paper's requirements are met. For more details,
see the documentation supplied with the paper.
Also, when operating in dry areas, air conditioned
environment, or under direct sunlight, maintain
the appropriate humidity.
❏ Do not install the printer next to heat sources or
directly in the path of air from a ventilator or air
conditioner. Failure to observe this precaution
could result in the print head nozzles drying and
clogging.

Introduction
❏ The print head may not be capped (i.e., may not
move to the right-hand side) if an error occurs
and the printer is turned off without first
resolving the error. Capping is a function for
automatically covering the print head with a cap
(lid) to prevent the print head from drying out. In
this case, turn on the power and wait a while until
capping is performed automatically.
❏ When the power is on, do not remove the power
plug or cut the power at the breaker. The print
head may not be capped properly. In this case,
turn on the power and wait a while until capping
is performed automatically.
❏ Even when printing is not performed, some of
each color of ink will be consumed by ink
cartridge replacement, print head cleaning, and
other maintenance operations needed to keep the
print head in good condition.
❏ The printer may automatically perform print
head cleaning to maintain good printing quality.
Please wait until cleaning finishes without
opening any of the covers or turning off the power.
Notes when not using the printer
If you are not using it, note the following points when
storing the printer. If it is not stored correctly, you
may not be able to print properly the next time it is used.
❏ Store the printer after confirming that the print
head has been capped (the print head is
positioned at the far right). If the print head is left
uncapped for a long time, the print quality may
decline.
Note:
If the print head is not capped, turn the printer
on, and then turn it off.
❏ To prevent the accumulation of dust and other
foreign matter in the printer, close all covers
before placing it in storage.
If the printer will be not be used for an extended
period, protect it with an anti-static cloth or other
cover.
The print head nozzles are very small, and they
can become clogged easily if fine dust gets on the
print head, and you may not be able to print
properly.
❏ The print head may fail if the environmental
temperature becomes -10°C or lower. If the
environmental temperature in the room or during
transport is expected to become -10°C or lower,
be sure to discharge the ink in advance.
U “Handling if Transporting/Leaving the
Printer in an Environment of -10°C or Less” on
page 218
Notes on handling ink cartridges
❏ When storing the printer, store it flat with the ink
cartridges installed. Do not place the printer
tilted, upright, or upside down.
❏ If you do not print for a long time, the print head
nozzles may become clogged. We recommend
that you print once a week to prevent the print
head from clogging.
❏ The roller may leave an impression on paper that
is left in the printer. This can also cause wavy or
curled paper resulting in paper feeding problems
or the print head could be scratched. Remove any
paper when storing.
Note the following points when handling ink
cartridges to maintain good print quality.
❏ The ink cartridges packaged with your printer are
partly used during initial setup. In order to
produce high quality printouts, the print head in
your printer will be fully charged with ink. This
one-off process consumes a quantity of ink and
therefore these cartridges may print fewer pages
compared to subsequent ink cartridges.
❏ The Initial Cartridge included with the printer is
designed for printer setup and not for resale or
later use. After some ink is used for charging, the
rest is available for printing. For the initial setup,
make sure you use the Initial Cartridge.
❏ We recommend that ink cartridges be stored at
room temperature out of direct sunlight and used
before the expiry date printed on the packaging.

SC-T3100M Series/SC-T5100 Series/SC-T3100 Series/SC-T5100N Series/SC-T3100N Series/SC-T2100 Series User's Guide
Introduction
❏ To ensure good results, use all the ink in the
cartridges within 6 months of opening the
packages.
❏ Do not open the ink cartridge package until you
are ready to install it in the printer. A vacuum
pack is used to maintain quality.
❏ Ink cartridges that have been stored at low
temperatures for an extended period should be
allowed to return to room temperature over a
period of at least three hours.
❏ Be sure to peel off the tape (yellow) before
installing an ink cartridge. If you attempt to
forcibly install an ink cartridge without removing
the tape, the printer may become unable to print
properly. Never peel off anything else such as the
film or label. Otherwise, ink could leak.
❏ Do not touch the IC chip on the ink cartridge.
You may not be able to print properly.
U “Replacing Ink Cartridges” on page 180
❏ Although the ink cartridges may contain recycled
materials, this does not affect printer function or
performance.
❏ Do not dismantle or remodel ink cartridges. You
may not be able to print properly.
❏ Do not drop or otherwise subject an ink cartridge
to a strong impact. Ink may leak from the cartridge.
❏ Even when the printer is not in use, some of each
color of ink will be consumed by ink cartridge
replacement, print head cleaning, and other
maintenance operations needed to keep the print
head in good condition.
❏ A mixture of color inks may be used to print
black depending on the paper type and print
quality settings even for black and white and
grayscale printing.
Notes on handling paper
❏ Install the ink cartridges for all the colors.
Printing is not possible if they are not all installed.
❏ Do not leave the printer without ink cartridges
installed. The print head nozzles may dry and
printing may become no longer possible.
❏ The ink level and other data are stored in the IC
chip, allowing cartridges to be used after being
removed and replaced. However, if an ink
cartridge with not much ink remaining is
removed and reinstalled, it may not be usable
because some ink is consumed to ensure the
reliability of the printer.
❏ To avoid getting dust on the ink supply port, store
a removed partially used ink cartridge with the
ink supply port downward or horizontal in the
same environment as this product. The ink supply
port has a valve in it so it does not need to be capped.
❏ Removed ink cartridges may have ink around the
ink supply port, so be careful not to get any ink
on the surrounding area when removing the
cartridges.
❏ To maintain the quality of the print head, this
printer stops printing before ink cartridges are
completely expended.
Note the following points when handling and storing
the paper. If the paper is not in good condition, print
quality may decline.
Check the documentation supplied with each paper.
Notes on Handling
❏ Use Epson special media under normal room
conditions (temperature: 15 to 25°C, humidity: 40
to 60%).
❏ Do not fold the paper or scratch the surface of the
paper.
❏ Avoid touching the printable surface of the paper
with your bare hands. Moisture and oils from
your hands can affect print quality.
❏ Handle paper by the edges. We recommend
wearing cotton gloves.
❏ Changes in temperature and humidity may cause
paper to become wavy or curled. Check the
following points.
❏ Load the paper just before printing.
❏ Do not use wavy or curled paper.
For roll paper, cut off the wavy or curled
parts and then load it again.

Introduction
For cut sheets, use new paper.
❏ Do not wet the paper.
❏ Do not throw away the paper packaging as you
can use it for storing the paper.
❏ Avoid locations that are subject to direct sunlight,
excessive heat, or humidity.
❏ Keep cut sheets in their original package after
opening, and keep them in a flat place.
❏ Remove roll paper that is not in use from the
printer. Rewind it correctly and then store it in
the original packaging that came with the roll
paper. If you leave the roll paper in the printer for
a long time, its quality may decline.
Notes on handling printed paper
To maintain long lasting, high quality print results,
note the following points.
❏ Do not rub or scratch print outs. If they are
rubbed or scratched, the ink may peel off.
❏ Do not touch the surface of print outs. The ink
may peel off.
Note:
Typically, print outs and photos fade over time (color
distortion) due to the effects of light and various
constituents in the air. This also applies to Epson
special media. However, with the correct storage
method, the degree of color distortion can be minimized.
❏ See the documentation supplied with Epson special
media for detailed information on handling the
paper after printing.
❏ The colors of photos, posters, and other printed
materials appear different under different lighting
conditions (light sources
from this printer may also appear different under
different light sources.
* Light sources include sunlight, fluorescent light,
incandescent light, and other types.
*
). The colors of print outs
Saving Power
The printer enters sleep mode or turns off
automatically if no operations are performed for a set
period. You can adjust the time before power
management is applied. Any increase will affect the
product's energy efficiency. Please consider the
environment before making any change.
❏ Make sure the print outs are completely dry
before folding of stacking; otherwise, the color
may change where they touch (leaves a mark).
These marks will disappear if they are separated
immediately and dried; however, they will remain
if not separated.
❏ If you put the print outs in an album before they
are completely dry, they may be blurred.
❏ Do not use a dryer to dry the print outs.
❏ Avoid direct sunlight.
❏ Prevent color distortion while displaying or
storing the print outs by following the
instructions in the paper's documentation.
Sleep mode
The printer enters sleep mode when there are no
errors, no print jobs being received, and no control
panel or other operations performed. When the
printer enters sleep mode, the control panel's screen
turns off and the internal motors and other parts
switch off to consume less power.
Sleep mode is exited if a print job is received or the
screen of the control panel is touched.
You can set the time it takes for the printer to enter
sleep mode. At default settings, the printer enters
sleep mode if no operations are performed for 15
minutes. The time it takes for the printer to enter
sleep mode can be changed in the Basic Settings menu.
