Maintaining Your Product
Follow the instructions in this chapter to check and clean the print head nozzles, check ink
levels, and replace ink cartridges. If you need to align the print head, or replace the
maintenance box, see the online User’s Guide.
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 or ink may be running low in one or more of the ink cartridges. Follow the
steps below to check the print head nozzles.

Cleaning the Print Head
If print quality has declined and the nozzle check indicates clogged nozzles, you can clean
the print head. Print head cleaning uses ink, so clean it only if necessary.
Note: You cannot clean the print head if an ink cartridge is expended, and may not be
able to clean it when a cartridge is low. You must replace the cartridge first (see
page 21).

3. When you see the first screen, press OK, then choose the colors you want to clean.
Tip: Use the nozzle check pattern to determine which colors need cleaning. You
can save ink by cleaning only selected colors.
Cleaning takes a few minutes. When it’s finished, you see a message on the LCD
screen.
Caution: Never turn off the product during head cleaning or you may damage it.

Note: If you don’t see any improvement after cleaning the print head four times, leave
the product on and wait at least six hours to let any dried ink soften. Then try cleaning
the print head again. If quality does not improve, one of the ink cartridges may need to
be replaced. If that doesn’t help, contact Epson as described on page 28.
If you do not use your product often, it is a good idea to print a few pages at least once
a month to maintain good print quality.
Checking Ink Levels
If an ink cartridge is expended, you see a message on your printer’s LCD screen:
Note: You cannot print or copy when an ink cartridge is expended even if the other
cartridges are not expended. Replace any expended cartridges before printing or
copying.

A window may also appear on your computer screen when you try to print when ink is
low. This window can optionally display ink offers and other updates from Epson.
Note: To disable checking for ink offers or updates from Epson, see the instructions in
your online User’s Guide.
Purchasing Epson Ink Cartridges
You can purchase genuine Epson ink and paper at Epson Supplies Central at
www.epson.com/ink3 (U.S. sales) or www.epson.ca (Canadian sales). You can also
purchase supplies from an Epson authorized reseller. To find the nearest one, call
800-GO-EPSON (800-463-7766).
Use the following list when you order or purchase new ink cartridges:
Ink color Part number
Black 676XL
Cyan 676XL
Magenta 676XL
Yellow 676XL
Note: We recommend that you use genuine Epson cartridges and do not refill them.
The use of other products may affect your print quality and could result in product
damage.
Yields vary considerably based on images printed, print settings, paper type, frequency
of use, and temperature. For print quality, a small amount of ink remains in the cartridge
after the “replace cartridge” indicator comes on. The included cartridges prime the
printer and print about 1000 black pages/900 color pages. Actual page count will vary.
For best printing results, use up a cartridge within six months of opening the package
and before the expiration date on the cartridge box.
Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place. If cartridges have been exposed to cold
temperatures, allow them to warm up to room temperature for at least 3 hours before
using them.

Purchasing Epson Ink Cartridges
Replacing Ink Cartridges
Make sure you have a new ink cartridge before you begin.
Caution: Do not open ink cartridge packages until you are ready to install the ink.

Network Setup and Printing Problems
■
Try connecting to the router or access point with your computer or another device to
confirm that it is working correctly.
■
Try resetting the router (turn it off and then on), then try to connect to it again.
■
Print a Network Status Sheet (see page 24). Verify that the network settings are correct
and check the signal strength. If it’s poor, try moving the product closer to your router
or access point. Avoid placing it next to a microwave oven, 2.4 GHz cordless phone,
or large metal object such as a filing cabinet.
■
If your wireless router doesn’t broadcast its network name (SSID), see your online
User’s Guide for instructions on manually entering your wireless network name.
■
If your wireless router has security enabled, make sure you entered the WEP key or
WPA passphrase correctly.
■
When using TCP/IP, make sure your network’s DHCP option is enabled (your router
manufacturer or your IT department will be able to assist you with this setting).
■
Remove and reinsert the CD to reinstall your product software.
■
Disable the firewall temporarily to see if that may be causing the problem. Contact
your firewall manufacturer for assistance.
■
Make sure your firewall or security software is not set to block port 3629 (TCP/
UDP). Contact your firewall manufacturer for assistance.
