❏ Make sure that the access point is turned on.

❏ Check that the computer or other devices are connected correctly to the access point.

❏ Place the printer close to the access point. Remove any obstacles between them.

❏ If you have entered the SSID manually, check if it is correct. Check the SSID from the Network Status part on

the network connection report.

❏ To establish a network using push button setup, check that the access point supports WPS. If it does not

support WPS, you cannot establish a network using push button setup.

❏ Check that only ASCII characters (alphanumeric characters and symbols) are used for the SSID. The printer

cannot display an SSID which contains any characters other than ASCII characters.

❏ Check the SSID and password before connecting to the access point. If you are using an access point with its

default settings, the SSID and password are on the label. If you do not know the SSID and password, contact the person who set up the access point, or see the documentation provided with the access point.

❏ When you want to connect to an SSID generated using the tethering function on a smart device, check the

SSID and password in the documentation provided with the smart device.

❏ If the Wi-Fi connection is suddenly disconnected, check the following. If any of these are applicable, reset the

network settings using the installer. You can run it from the following website.

❏ WPA PSK (TKIP/AES)

❏ WPA2 PSK (TKIP/AES)

❏ WPA (TKIP/AES)

❏ WPA2 (TKIP/AES)

* : WPA PSK is also known as WPA Personal. WPA2 PSK is also known as WPA2 Personal.

E-6 ❏ Check if the MAC address ltering is disabled. If it is enabled, register the printer's MAC address so that it is

not MAC address from the Network Status part on the network connection report.

❏ If the access point's shared authentication is enabled on the WEP security method, make sure the

authentication key and index are correct.

E-8 ❏ Enable DHCP on the access point when the printer's Obtain IP Address is set to Auto.

❏ If the printer's Obtain IP Address is set to Manual, the IP address you manually set is out of range (for

example: 0.0.0.0) and it is disabled. Set a valid IP address from printer's control panel or Web Cong.

See the documentation provided with the access point for details. You can check the printer's

Paper Handling Precautions

❏ Read the instruction sheets supplied with the paper.

❏ To achieve high-quality printouts with genuine Epson paper, use the paper in the environment stated on the

sheets supplied with the paper.

❏ Fan and align the edges of the paper before loading. Do not fan or curl photo paper. Doing so may damage the

printable side.

❏ If the paper is curled, atten it or curl it slightly in the opposite direction before loading. Printing on curled

paper may cause paper jams and smears on the printout.

❏ Do not use paper that is wavy, torn, cut, folded, damp, too thick, too thin, or paper that has stickers stuck to it.

Using these types of paper causes paper jams and smears on the printout.

❏ Make sure you are using long-grain paper. If you are not sure what type of paper you are using, check the paper

packaging or contact the manufacturer to conrm the paper specications.

❏ Do not use short-grain paper with a width of less than 105 mm.

❏ Fan and align the edges of the envelopes before loading. When the stacked envelopes are
