Solving Problems

The printer makes noise after ink cartridge installation.

• The first time you install ink cartridges, the printer must charge its print
head for a minute or so. Wait until charging finishes (the green
power light stops flashing) before you turn off the printer, or it may
charge improperly and use excess ink the next time you turn it on.

• If the printer stops moving or making noise, but the green power
light is still flashing after 5 minutes, turn off the printer. If the light is
still flashing when you turn it back on, contact Epson as described in
“Any Questions?”.

• Turn off the printer, then make sure the ink cartridges are inserted
completely and the ink cartridge cover is closed completely. Also make
sure no packing material remains in the printer. Wait a moment, then
turn the printer back on to clear the error.

You’re having problems installing the printer software.

• Make sure your printer is turned on and the cable is securely
connected at both ends. Then carefully follow the installation
instructions. Also make sure your system meets the System
Requirements listed in the Printer Basics book.

• Close your other programs, including any screen savers and virus
protection software, and install the software again.

• In Windows, make sure your printer is selected as the default printer
and that the correct port is shown in the printer properties.
