Introduction
After you have set up your Epson Stylus® CX4400 Series all-in-one as described
on the Start Here sheet, turn here to:
■ Load paper
■ Make a quick copy of a document or photo
■ Get the basic steps for printing from your computer
■ Scan a document or photo and restore or correct the color if necessary
■ Perform routine maintenance
■ Solve simple problems
This book tells you how to do most of these things without ever turning on your
computer! Of course your all-in-one can do a lot more when you connect it to
your Windows
screen User’s Guide by selecting the icon for it on your desktop.
Please follow these guidelines as you read your CX4400 Series instructions:

Loading Paper
Follow these steps to load paper.
1. Open the paper support. Then open the output tray and pull out the
extension.
2. Flip the feeder guard forward.
3. Press in the tab on the edge guide and slide it left.
4 Loading Paper
4. Insert the paper, glossy or printable side up, against the right side.
Then slide the edge guide against the paper.
Letter-size plain paper
4 × 6-inch photo paper
Always load paper short edge first, even for landscape
printing. Load letterhead or pre-printed paper top edge
first.
You can load up to 80 sheets of plain paper and 20 sheets
of photo paper. Load other special papers one sheet at a
time.
Note:
The type of paper you choose affects the way your printout looks. 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’ll want to use one of Epson’s special ink jet papers designed
for your printer. For example, your photos will look great printed on Epson Premium
Photo Paper Glossy (see page 6 for more information).
5. Flip the feeder guard back.
Note:
For instructions on loading envelopes, see your on-screen User’s Guide.
