User’s Guide
Important Instructions
Use only the type of power source indicated on the product’s label.
Avoid using outlets on the same circuit as photocopiers or air control systems that regularly switch on and off.
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 or the base units of cordless telephones.
The power-supply cords should be placed to avoid abrasions, cuts, fraying, crimping, and kinking. Do not place
objects on top of the power-supply cords and do not allow the power-supply cords to be stepped on or run over. Be particularly careful to keep all the power-supply cords straight at the ends and the points where they enter and leave the transformer.
If you use an extension cord with the product, make sure that the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into
the extension cord does not exceed the cord’s ampere rating. Also, make sure that the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s ampere rating.
If you plan to use the product in Germany, the building installation must be protected by a 10 or 16 amp circuit
breaker to provide adequate short-circuit protection and over-current protection for the product.
When connecting the product to a computer or other device with a cable, ensure the correct orientation of the
connectors. Each connector has only one correct orientation. Inserting a connector in the wrong orientation may damage both devices connected by the cable.
Place the product on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond the base of the product in all directions. If you place
the product by the wall, leave more than 10 cm between the back of the product and the wall. The product will not operate properly if it is tilted at an angle.

User’s Guide
Important Instructions
Before transporting the product, make sure that the print head is in the home (far right) position and the ink
cartridges are in place.
Be careful not to trap your fingers when closing the scanner unit.
If you are not going to use the product for a long period, be sure to unplug the power cord from the electrical
outlet.
Do not press too hard on the scanner glass when placing the originals.
During the life of your product it may be necessary to replace the waste ink pad when it has become full. Whether
and how often this is required will vary according to the number of pages you print, the type of material that you print and the number of cleaning cycles that the product performs. Epson Status Monitor, your LCD, or lights on the control panel will advise you when this part needs replacing. The need for replacement of the pad does not mean that your product has ceased to operate in accordance with its specifications. The replacement of this part is a routine product servicing activity within the product’s specification and is not a problem which requires repair. The Epson warranty does not therefore cover the cost of this replacement. If your product needs the pad replacing this can be performed for you by any authorised Epson service provider. It is not a user-serviceable part.

Paper and Media Handling

Paper and Media Handling

Introduction to Using, Loading, and Storing Media

You can achieve good results with most types of plain paper. However, coated papers provide superior prints because they absorb less ink.
Epson provides special papers that are formulated for the ink used in Epson ink jet products, and recommends these papers to ensure high-quality results.
When loading special paper distributed by Epson, read the instruction sheets packed with the paper first and keep the following points in mind.
Note:
Load the paper into the rear paper feed printable side up. The printable side is usually whiter or glossier. See the
instruction sheets packed with the paper for more information. Some types of paper have cut corners to help identify the correct loading direction.
If the paper is curled, flatten it or curl it slightly in the opposite direction before loading. Printing on curled paper may
cause ink to smear on your prints. Do not use the paper that is folded, wavy or torn.

Storing paper

Return unused paper to the original package as soon as you finish printing. When handling special media, Epson recommends storing your prints in a resealable plastic bag. Keep unused paper and prints away from high temperature, humidity, and direct sunlight.

Selecting Paper

The table below lists supported papers. Loading capacity and borderless print availability varies by paper as shown.

Creating a marquee
A marquee is a moving dotted line that appears on the edges of your preview image to indicate the scan area.
Do one of the following to draw a marquee.
To draw the marquee manually, position the pointer in the area where you want to place the corner of your
marquee and click. Drag the cross-hairs over the image to the opposite corner of the desired scan area.
To draw the marquee automatically, click the auto locate icon. You can only use this icon when you are
viewing a normal preview and you only have one document on the scanner glass.
To draw the marquee at a specified size, type in a new width and height in the Document Size setting.
For best results and image exposure, make sure all sides of the marquee are located inside the preview image. Do
not include any areas around the preview image in the marquee.
Adjusting a marquee
You can move the marquee and adjust its size. If you are viewing a normal preview, you can create multiple marquees (up to 50) on each image to scan different image areas as separate scan files.
To move the marquee, position your cursor inside the marquee. The pointer becomes a hand. Click and drag the marquee to the desired location.
To resize the marquee, position your cursor over the edge or corner of the marquee.
The pointer becomes a straight or angled double-arrow. Click and drag the edge or corner to the desired size.

Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges, as there may be some ink around the ink supply port.
If ink gets on your skin, wash the area thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If discomfort or vision problems continue after a thorough flushing, see a doctor immediately. If ink gets into your mouth, spit it out immediately and see a doctor right away.
Do not remove or tear the label on the cartridge; this can cause leakage.
Do not remove the transparent seal from the bottom of the cartridge; otherwise, the cartridge may become
unusable.
Do not disassemble or remodel the ink cartridge, otherwise you may not be able to print normally.

Replacing Ink Cartridges
Do not touch the green IC chip or the small window on the side of the cartridge. Doing so may prevent normal
operation and printing.
Do not leave the product with the ink cartridges removed or do not turn off the product during cartridge
replacement. Otherwise, ink remaining in the print head nozzles will dry out and you may not be able to print.

Precautions on ink cartridge replacement

Read all of the instructions in this section before replacing the ink cartridges.
Epson recommends the use of genuine Epson ink cartridges. Epson cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of
non-genuine ink. The use of non-genuine ink may cause damage that is not covered by Epson’s warranties, and under certain circumstances, may cause erratic product behavior. Information about non-genuine ink levels may not be displayed.
Gently shake only the black ink cartridge four or five times before opening the package. Do not shake the other
color cartridges.
Do not shake ink cartridges too vigorously; otherwise ink may leak from the cartridge.
This product uses ink cartridges equipped with an IC chip that monitors information such as the amount of
remaining ink for each cartridge. This means that even if the cartridge is removed from the product before it is expended, you can still use the cartridge after reinserting it back into the product. However, when reinserting a cartridge, some ink may be consumed to guarantee product performance.
You cannot use the cartridge that came with your product for the replacement.
To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from all cartridges not only during printing
but also during maintenance operations such as ink cartridge replacement and print head cleaning.
If you need to remove an ink cartridge temporarily, be sure to protect the ink supply area from dirt and dust. Store
the ink cartridge in the same environment as the product. When storing the cartridge, be sure that its label identifying the color of the ink cartridge is facing upward. Do not store ink cartridges upside down.
The ink supply port is equipped with a valve designed to contain the release of excess ink; there is no need to supply
your own covers or plugs. However, careful handling is recommended. Do not touch the supply port of the ink cartridge or its surrounding area.
For maximum ink efficiency, only remove an ink cartridge when you are ready to replace it. Ink cartridges with
low ink status may not be used when reinserted.

User’s Guide
Replacing Ink Cartridges
Do not open the ink cartridge package until you are ready to install it in the product. The cartridge is vacuum
packed to maintain its reliability. If you leave a cartridge unpacked for a long time before using it, normal printing may not be possible.
Install all ink cartridges; otherwise, you cannot print.
When color ink is expended and black ink still remains, you can continue printing temporarily with black ink
only. For more information refer to “Temporarily Printing with Black Ink When Color Ink Cartridges are
Expended” on page 85.
If an ink cartridge is running low, prepare a new ink cartridge.
Be careful not to break the hooks on the side of the ink cartridge when you remove it from the package.
You must remove the yellow tape from the cartridge before installing it; otherwise, print quality may decline or
you may not be able to print.
After bringing an ink cartridge inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room temperature for at least
three hours before using it.
Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place.
Store ink cartridges with their labels facing upward. Do not store cartridges upside down.

Ink Cartridge Specifications

Epson recommends using the ink cartridge before the date printed on the package.
The ink cartridges packaged with your product are partly used during initial setup. In order to produce high
quality printouts, the print head in your product will be fully charged with ink. This one-off process consumes a quantity of ink and therefore these cartridges may print fewer pages compared to subsequent ink cartridges.
Quoted yields may vary depending on the images that you are printing, the paper type that you are using, the
frequency of your prints and environmental conditions such as temperature.
To ensure you receive premium print quality and to help protect your print head, a variable ink safety reserve
remains in the cartridge when your product indicates to replace the cartridge. The yields quoted for you do not include this reserve.
Although the ink cartridges may contain recycled materials, this does not affect product function or performance.
When printing in monochrome or grayscale, color inks instead of black ink may be used depending on the paper
type or print quality settings. This is because a mixture of color inks is used to create black.

Cleaning the Print Head

If you find that the printout is unexpectedly faint or that dots are missing, you may be able to solve these problems by cleaning the print head, which ensures that the nozzles are delivering ink properly.
You can clean the print head from your computer using the Head Cleaning utility in the printer driver or from the product by using the buttons.
Important:
c
Do not open the scanner unit or turn off the product during head cleaning. If the head cleaning is incomplete, you may not be able to print.
Note:
Because print head cleaning uses some ink from all cartridges, clean the print head only if quality declines; for example,
if the printout is blurry or the color is incorrect or missing.
Use the Nozzle Check utility first to confirm that the print head needs to be cleaned. This saves ink.
When ink is low you may not be able to clean the print head. When ink is expended you cannot clean the print head.
Replace the appropriate ink cartridge first.
If print quality has not improved after repeating this procedure about four times, turn the product off and wait for at
least six hours. Then run the nozzle check again and repeat the head cleaning if necessary. If print quality has still not improved, contact Epson support.
To maintain print quality, we recommend printing a few pages on a regular basis.
