Follow the steps here to load paper in your Epson Stylus CX5800F all-in-one.

1. Open the paper support and output tray, then slide out the extensions.

2. Flip the feeder guard forward. Then slide the left edge guide to the left.

Loading Paper 7

You can load up to 100 sheets of 17 lb plain paper or up to 20 sheets of photo paper. See the User’s Guide for capacity guidelines on other paper types.

Note:

The type of paper you choose affects the way your printout looks, so be sure to select the correct paper for your job. 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 Glossy Photo Paper. See page 29 for details.

4. Slide the left edge guide against the left edge of the paper (but not too tightly). Then flip the feeder guard back.

Printing From a Memory Card or Camera

The Epson Stylus CX5800F all-in-one lets you print color photos directly from your digital camera’s memory card; just insert it into a memory card slot on the Epson Stylus CX5800F and you’re ready to print.

™

If your digital camera supports DPOF pre-select the photos you want to print while the card is still in the camera. Then, when you insert the card in the Epson Stylus CX5800F, it knows which photos to print and how many copies of each.

If your camera is PictBridge print your JPEG photos by connecting your digital camera directly to your Epson Stylus CX5800F. Your photos must be sized from 80 × 80 to 9200 × 9200 pixels.

Printing From a Memory Card or Camera 17

When you want to remove the card, make sure the memory card access light is not flashing, then pull the card straight out of its slot.

Note:

You can print only in color when printing directly from a memory card; you cannot print in black and white.

Caution:

Do not remove the card or turn off the Epson Stylus CX5800F while the memory card access light is flashing; you may lose data on the card.

Printing an Index Sheet to Select Photos

You can print an index sheet (which is like a photographer’s contact or proof sheet) to see small “thumbnail” images of all the photos on your card. Then you mark the photos on the index sheet that you want to print, scan the sheet, and let the Epson Stylus CX5800F automatically print the selected photos.

Printing the Index Sheet

1. Make sure your Epson Stylus CX5800F is not connected to your computer (or your computer is turned off).

2. Load several sheets of letter-size, plain paper. (Use only letter-size paper to print the index sheet.) Up to 30 images are printed on each page, so if there are more than 30 photos on the memory card, you’ll need enough sheets for all the index pages to be printed.

3. Insert the memory card if it is not already in the slot. See page 17 for details.

4. If the light in the

Memory Card button is not lit, press the Memory Card

button. The Epson Stylus CX5800F counts the images on your card and you see this display, indicating it is ready to print the index sheet:

Now follow the instructions below to select which photos to print.

OK:

No good:

Make sure just one oval is filled in for each selected photo and mark the sheet carefully; once it has been scanned you will not be able to change your selections.

Note:

If you want one copy of all the photos on the index sheet, fill in the ALL oval at the top of the page.

Maintaining Your Epson Stylus CX5800F

If you notice a decline in print quality, follow the instructions in this chapter for:

■ “Cleaning the Print Head” on page 48

■ “Checking the Ink Levels” on page 49

■ “Replacing Ink Cartridges” on page 50

Checking the Print Head Nozzles

If your printouts are faint or have gaps in them, some of the nozzles in the print head may be clogged. Follow the steps below to check the print head nozzles using the control panel.

1. Load letter-size paper in the sheet feeder.

Note:

You can also check the print head nozzles using software when the Epson Stylus CX5800F is connected to your computer. See the User’s Guide for instructions.

Cleaning the Print Head

If your printouts are unexpectedly light or faint, or you notice light or dark bands across your printout, you may need to clean the print head. This unclogs the nozzles so they can deliver ink properly. Run a nozzle check as described on page 47 to see if the print head needs cleaning.

Note:

Print head cleaning uses ink, so clean it only if quality declines and the nozzle check indicates that the print head needs to be cleaned.

If you see an ink error message on the display, you cannot clean the print head. In this case, press the OK button and replace the appropriate ink cartridge first. See page 50 for details.

48 Maintaining Your Epson Stylus CX5800F

Note:

If you don’t see any improvement after cleaning the print head four or five times, turn off the Epson Stylus CX5800F and wait overnight. This lets any dried ink soften. Then try cleaning the print head again. If quality still does not improve, one of the ink cartridges may be old or damaged and needs to be replaced. See page 50 for details.

Caution:

If you do not use your Epson Stylus CX5800F often, it is a good idea to print a few pages at least once a month to maintain good print quality.

Problems and Solutions

Check the solutions below if you have trouble using your Epson Stylus CX5800F.

Copying Problems

■ Make sure your original is positioned in the top left corner of the glass. Place

it 0.04 inch (1 mm) from the edges to avoid cropping.

■ Make sure your paper is loaded short edge first and is positioned against the

right edge guide with the left edge guide against its left side. Don’t load paper above the arrow mark inside the left edge guide.

Solving Problems 57

Faxing Problems

■ If you have problems sending a fax, make sure the phone cable is connected

correctly and verify that the phone line works by connecting a phone to it. Also make sure that your recipient’s fax machine is turned on and working.

■ If you have problems receiving a fax, make sure paper is loaded, the phone

cable is connected correctly, and the phone line works. To automatically receive faxes, make sure you see a details.) If you see

may be too large. Tell the sender to resend the fax in smaller sections.

■ If you connected the Epson Stylus CX5800F to a DSL phone line, you must

install a DSL filter to the line or you won’t be able to fax. Contact your DSL provider for the necessary filter.

■ If your phone line has static or other noise problems, turn off the ECM (Error

Correction Mode) setting and try faxing again. See page 34 for details.

Paper Feeding Problems

■ If paper doesn’t feed, remove it from the sheet feeder. Flip through the stack to

separate the sheets a little. Then reload the paper against the right edge guide, and slide the left edge guide against the paper (but not too tightly). Make sure the paper is not in front of the feeder guard.

■ Do not load too many sheets at once (up to 20 sheets of photo paper or

100 sheets of plain paper). See the User’s Guide for more information.

■ If paper is jammed, you see a paper jam message on the display. Follow these

steps to clear the jam:

1. Press the

OK button to eject the jammed paper. If the jammed paper is

not ejected, go to the next step.

2. If the paper is stuck near the sheet feeder or output tray, gently pull it out.

If the paper is stuck inside the Epson Stylus CX5800F, press the P button to turn it off. Open the scanner and remove any paper inside, including any torn pieces. Do not pull it backward however; this can damage the sheet feeder. Close the scanner, then turn the Epson Stylus CX5800F back on.

58 Solving Problems

Print Quality Problems

If you have any problems with the copy or print quality, try these solutions:

■ Make sure the document is placed flat against the document table glass and

the Epson Stylus CX5800F is not tilted or placed on an uneven surface.

■ Load the paper printable side up (usually the whiter, brighter, or glossy side).

■ Make sure your paper isn’t damp or curled.

■ Use a support sheet with special paper or load your paper one sheet at a time.

Remove sheets from the output tray as they are printed.

■ Make sure the type of paper you loaded matches the paper size and paper type

settings on the control panel or in your printer software. See page 29 for details.

■ For the best print quality, use Epson special paper (see page 29) and genuine

Epson ink cartridges (see page 50).

■ Set the paper thickness lever to the m L position for most paper types. If you

are printing on envelopes, set the lever to the ^

■ If you notice light or dark bands across your printouts or they are too faint,

you may need to clean the print head. This unclogs the nozzles so they can deliver ink properly. Run a nozzle check to see if the print head needs cleaning. See page 47 for details.

H position.

■ Clean the print head. See page 48 for details.

■ If you notice jagged vertical lines, you may need to align the print head. See

your User’s Guide for instructions.

■ The ink cartridges may be old or low on ink. See page 50 for instructions on

replacing an ink cartridge.

■ If a dotted line appears in the image, clean the document table glass with a

soft, dry, lint-free cloth (paper towels are not recommended), or use a small amount of glass cleaner on a soft cloth, if necessary. Don’t spray glass cleaner

directly on the glass.

Important Safety Instructions

Before using your Epson Stylus CX5800F all-in-one, read and follow these safety instructions:

■ Be sure to follow all warnings and instructions marked on the Epson Stylus

CX5800F.

■ Use only the type of power source indicated on the Epson Stylus CX5800F label.

■ Use only the power cord that comes with the Epson Stylus CX5800F. Use of another

cord may cause fires or shock. Do not use the cord with any other equipment.

■ Place the Epson Stylus CX5800F near a wall outlet where the plug can be easily

unplugged.

Placez l’imprimante près d’une prise de contacte où la fiche peut être débranchée facilement.

■ Do not let the power cord become damaged or frayed.

■ If you use an extension cord with the Epson Stylus CX5800F, 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 Epson Stylus CX5800F for sufficient ventilation. Do

not block or cover openings in the Epson Stylus CX5800F case or insert objects through the slots.

■ Do not place the Epson Stylus CX5800F near a radiator or heating vent or in direct

sunlight.

■ Place the Epson Stylus CX5800F 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 Epson Stylus CX5800F is at least 3.9 inches (10 cm) away

from the wall.

■ Do not open the scanner section while the Epson Stylus CX5800F is copying,

printing, or scanning.

■ Do not spill liquid on the Epson Stylus CX5800F.

Notices 61

■ Except as specifically explained in your documentation, do not attempt to service the

Epson Stylus CX5800F yourself.

■ Unplug the Epson Stylus CX5800F 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 Epson Stylus CX5800F, do not tilt it, stand it on its

side, or turn it upside down; otherwise ink may leak from the cartridge.

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.

■ Do not put your hand inside the Epson Stylus CX5800F or touch any cartridges

during printing.

■ Install a new ink cartridge immediately after removing an empty one. Leaving

cartridges uninstalled can dehydrate the print head and may prevent the Epson Stylus CX5800F 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 Epson Stylus CX5800F. 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.

Telephone Equipment Safety Instructions

When using telephone equipment, you should always follow basic safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including the following:

■ Do not use the Epson Stylus CX5800F near water.

■ Avoid using a telephone during an electrical storm. There may be a remote

risk of electric shock from lightning.

■ Do not use a telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

Caution:

To reduce the risk of fire, use only a No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord.
