Important Safety Instructions
Read all of these instructions before using your EPSON Stylus
Scan. Also be sure to follow all warnings and instructions marked
on the Stylus Scan.
Unplug the Stylus Scan before cleaning. Clean with a damp
❏
cloth only. Do not spill liquid on the Stylus Scan.
Do not place the Stylus Scan on an unstable surface, or near a
❏
radiator or heat source.
Do not block or cover the openings in the Stylus Scan’s
❏
cabinet. Do not insert objects through the slots.
Take care not to spill liquid on the Stylus Scan.
❏
Use only the type of power source indicated on the Stylus
❏
Scan’s label.
Connect all equipment to properly grounded power outlets.
❏
Avoid using outlets on the same circuit as air control systems,
or other devices that consume large amounts of electricity and
regularly switch on and off.
2
Avoid electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or
❏
automatic timers.
Keep the entire computer system away from potential sources
❏
of electromagnetic interference, such as loudspeakers and the
base units of cordless telephones.
Do not use a damaged or frayed power cord.
❏
If you use an extension cord with the Stylus Scan, 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.
Do not attempt to service the EPSON Stylus Scan yourself.
❏
Unplug the Stylus Scan and refer servicing to qualified service
❏
personnel under the following conditions:
The power cord or plug is damaged; liquid has entered the
Stylus Scan; the Stylus Scan has been dropped or the cabinet
damaged; the Stylus Scan does not operate normally or
exhibits a distinct change in performance.
If you are using the Stylus Scan in Germany, observe the
❏
following:
To provide adequate short-circuit protection and overcurrent protection for this Stylus Scan, the building
installation must be protected by a 16 Amp circuit breaker.
Bei Anschluß des Druckers an die Stromversorgung muß
sichergestellt werden, daß die Gebäudeinstallation mit einem
16 A- Überstromschalter abgesichert ist.

Before transporting the Stylus Scan, make sure the print head
❏
is in the home (far right) position and the ink cartridges are
in place.
When handling the ink cartridges
Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children. Do not allow
❏
children to drink from or otherwise handle the cartridges.
If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it
❏
gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water.
Do not shake the ink cartridges; this can cause leakage.
❏
Install the ink cartridge immediately after you remove it from
❏
its package. Leaving the cartridge unpacked for a long time
before use may result in reduced print quality.
Once you install an ink cartridge, do not open the clamp or
❏
remove the cartridge except to replace it with a new one.
Otherwise, the cartridge may become unusable.
Do not use an ink cartridge beyond the date printed on the
❏
cartridge carton. For best results, use up the ink cartridges
within six months of installing them.
Do not dismantle the ink cartridges or try to refill them. Doing
❏
so may damage the print head.
When choosing a place for the Stylus Scan
Place the EPSON Stylus Scan on a flat, stable surface that
❏
extends beyond the Stylus Scan base in all directions. The
Stylus Scan will not operate properly if it is tilted or at an
angle.
Avoid places subject to rapid changes in temperature and
❏
humidity. Also, keep the Stylus Scan away from direct
sunlight, strong light, and heat sources.
4
Avoid places subject to shocks and vibrations.
❏
Leave enough room around the Stylus Scan to allow for
❏
sufficient ventilation.
Place the Stylus Scan near a wall outlet where the plug can be
❏
easily unplugged.
Note for French-speaking users:
Placez l’imprimante près d’une prise de contacte où la fiche peut être
débranchée facilement.

Printing Your Page
Loading Special Paper and Other Media
You can achieve good results with most plain bond paper.
However, coated paper and glossy film result in higher quality
printouts because these media absorb smaller amounts of ink.
You can print on a wide variety of special media, including ink
jet paper, photo quality glossy film, photo paper, transparencies,
index cards, and adhesive sheets.
EPSON distributes special media that are formulated for the ink
used in EPSON ink jet devices. It is recommended that you use
these media to ensure high-quality results. See “EPSON special
media” on page 89 for a complete list of these products.
When loading special media distributed by EPSON, read the
instructions included with the media and keep the following
points in mind.
12
Make sure the printable side of the paper is facing up when
❏
loading media into the paper feeder. See the instruction sheets
packed with the media to determine which side is the
printable surface. Some media have cut corners to help
identify the correct loading direction, as shown in the
illustration.

About special media cleaning sheets
Cleaning sheets packaged with EPSON special media should not
be used with the Stylus Scan. The cleaning function performed by
these sheets is not needed, and the sheets could jam in the Stylus
Scan.
Loading Envelopes
When printing on envelopes, please note the following:
You can load up to ten envelopes at a time into the paper
❏
feeder.
Note:
The folding quality and thickness of envelopes vary widely. If the
total thickness of the stack of envelopes exceeds ten millimeters, press
the stack flat before loading.
Set the adjust lever to the “+” position. To do this, open the
❏
front cover and reposition the lever.
