❏ Use only the power cord supplied with the printer and do not use the cord with any other equipment. Use of other cords with this printer or the use of the supplied power cord with other equipment may result in fire or electric shock.

❏ Be sure your AC power cord meets the relevant local safety standard.

❏ Never disassemble, modify, or attempt to repair the power cord, plug, printer unit, scanner unit, or options by

yourself, except as specifically explained in the printer's manuals.

❏ Unplug the printer and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

The power cord or plug is damaged; liquid has entered the printer; the printer has been dropped or the casing damaged; the printer does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. Do not adjust controls that are not covered by the operating instructions.

❏ Place the printer near a wall outlet where the plug can be easily unplugged.

❏ Do not place or store the printer outdoors, near excessive dirt or dust, water, heat sources, or in locations

subject to shocks, vibrations, high temperature or humidity.

❏ Take care not to spill liquid on the printer and not to handle the printer with wet hands.

❏ Keep the printer at least 22 cm away from cardiac pacemakers. Radio waves from this printer may adversely

affect the operation of cardiac pacemakers.

❏ If the LCD screen is damaged, contact your dealer. If the liquid crystal solution gets on your hands, wash them thoroughly with soap and water. If the liquid crystal solution gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If discomfort or vision problems remain after a thorough flushing, see a doctor immediately.

#### Printer Advisories and Warnings

Read and follow these instructions to avoid damaging the printer or your property. Make sure you keep this manual for future reference.

###### Advisories and Warnings for Setting Up/Using the Printer

❏ Do not block or cover the vents and openings in the printer.

❏ Use only the type of power source indicated on the printer'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 printer, 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 printer 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 printer.

❏ When connecting the printer 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 printer on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond the base of the printer in all directions. The printer

will not operate properly if it is tilted at an angle.

❏ When storing or transporting the printer, avoid tilting it, placing it vertically, or turning it upside down;

otherwise ink may leak.

❏ Allow space above the printer so that you can fully raise the document cover.

❏ Leave enough space in front of the printer for the paper to be fully ejected.

❏ Avoid places subject to rapid changes in temperature and humidity. Also, keep the printer away from direct

sunlight, strong light, or heat sources.

❏ Do not insert objects through the slots in the printer.

❏ Do not put your hand inside the printer during printing.

❏ Do not touch the white flat cable inside the printer.

❏ Do not use aerosol products that contain flammable gases inside or around the printer. Doing so may cause fire.

❏ Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise, you may damage the printer.

❏ Be careful not to trap your fingers when closing the scanner unit.

❏ Do not press too hard on the scanner glass when placing the originals.

❏ Always turn the printer off using the P button. Do not unplug the printer or turn off the power at the outlet

until the P light stops flashing.

❏ Before transporting the printer, make sure that the print head is in the home (far right) position and the ink

cartridges are in place.

❏ If you are not going to use the printer for a long period, be sure to unplug the power cord from the electrical

outlet.

Related Information & “Supported Memory Card Specifications” on page 252

###### Advisories and Warnings for Using the Touchscreen

❏ The LCD screen may contain a few small bright or dark spots, and because of its features it may have an uneven

brightness. These are normal and do not indicate that it is damaged in any way.

❏ Only use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid or chemical cleaners.

❏ The exterior cover of the touchscreen could break if it receives a heavy impact. Contact your dealer if the panel

surface chips or cracks, and do not touch or attempt to remove the broken pieces.

❏ Press the touchscreen gently with your finger. Do not press force or operate with your nails.

❏ Do not use sharp objects such as ball point pens or sharp pencils to perform operations.

#### Notes on the Administrator Password

This printer allows you to set an administrator password to prevent unauthorized access or changes to the device settings and network settings stored in the product when connecting to a network.

###### Default Value of the Administrator Password

The default value of the administrator password is printed on the label on the product itself, such as the one shown. The position where the label is attached depends on the product, such as the side where the cover is opened, the back, or the bottom.

The following illustration is an example of the label attachment position on the side of the printer where the cover opens.

If both labels (1) and (2) are attached, the value next to PASSWORD written on the label in (1) is the default value. In this example, the default value is 03212791.

If only label (2) is attached, the serial number printed on the label in (2) is the default value. In this example, the default value is X3B8153559.

###### Changing the Administrator Password

For security reasons, we recommend changing the initial password. It can be changed from Web Config and Epson Device Admin. When changing the password, set it with at least 8 single-byte alphanumerical characters and symbols.

#### Paper Handling Precautions

❏ Read the instruction 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, flatten 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.

❏ Fan and align the edges of the envelopes before loading. When the stacked envelopes are puffed up with air,

press them down to flatten them before loading.

❏ Do not use envelopes that are curled or folded. Using these envelopes causes paper jams and smears on the

writing data.

❏ Do not print on the CD/DVD before writing your data to it. If you do, fingerprints, dirt, or scratches on the

surface may cause errors while writing data.

❏ Depending on the CD/DVD type or printing data, smearing may occur. Try making a test print on a spare CD/

DVD. Check the printed surface after waiting for one full day.

❏ Compared to printing on genuine Epson paper, the print density is lowered to prevent ink from smearing on the

CD/DVD. Adjust the print density as necessary.

❏ Allow the printed CD/DVDs at least 24 hours to dry avoiding direct sunlight. Do not stack or insert the CD/

DVDs into your device until they are completely dry.

❏ If the printed surface is sticky even after it has dried, lower the print density.

❏ Reprinting on the same CD/DVD may not improve the print quality.

❏ If the CD/DVD tray or the internal transparent compartment are accidentally printed on, immediately wipe off

the ink.

❏ Depending on the print area setting, the CD/DVD or CD/DVD tray may get dirty. Make settings to print on the

printable area.

❏ You can set the print range for the CD/DVD to a minimum of 18 mm for the inner diameter, and a maximum of 120 mm for the outer diameter. Depending on the settings, the CD/DVD or tray may be smeared. Set within the print range for the CD/DVD you want to print.

#### Ink Cartridge Codes

The following are the codes for genuine Epson ink cartridges. Note:

❏ Ink cartridge codes may vary by location. For the correct codes in your area,contact Epson support.

❏ Although the ink cartridges may contain recycled materials, this does not affect printer function or performance.

❏ Specifications and appearance of the ink cartridge are subject to change without prior notice for improvement.

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 printer behavior. Information about non-genuine ink levels may not be displayed.

Related Information & “Technical Support Web Site” on page 259

#### Ink Cartridge Handling Precautions

########### Storing precautions for ink

❏ Keep the ink cartridges out of direct sunlight.

❏ Do not store the ink cartridges in high or freezing temperatures.

❏ Epson recommends using the ink cartridge before the date printed on the package.

❏ For best results, use up ink cartridge within six months of opening the package.

❏ For best results, store ink cartridge packages with their bottom down.

❏ 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.

❏ Do not open the ink cartridge package until you are ready to install it in the printer. 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.

########### Handling precautions for replacing ink cartridges

❏ Do not touch the sections shown in the illustration. Doing so may prevent normal operation and printing.

❏ Install all ink cartridges; otherwise you cannot print.

❏ Do not replace ink cartridges with the power off. Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise, you may

damage the printer.

❏ After installing the ink cartridge, the power light continues to flash while the printer is charging ink. Do not

turn off the printer during ink charging. If the ink charging is incomplete, you may not be able to print. ❏ Do not leave the printer with the ink cartridges removed or do not turn off the printer during cartridge

replacement. Otherwise, ink remaining in the print head nozzles will dry out and you may not be able to print.

❏ Be careful not to let dust or any objects get inside the ink cartridge holder. Anything inside the holder may adversely affect the printing results or result in an inability to print. If anything gets inside the holder, remove it carefully.

❏ If you remove the cartridge from the printer for later use or to dispose of it, make sure you put the cap back on the cartridge’s ink supply port to prevent ink from drying out or to prevent surrounding areas from getting smeared by ink.

❏ If you remove an ink cartridge from the printer for later use, Epson recommends using it up as soon as possible.

❏ This printer uses ink cartridges equipped with a green 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 printer before it is expended, you can still use the cartridge after reinserting it back into the printer. However, when reinserting a cartridge, some ink may be consumed to guarantee printer performance.

❏ 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.

❏ 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 printer indicates to replace the cartridge. The yields quoted for you do not include this reserve.

❏ Do not disassemble or remodel the ink cartridge, otherwise you may not be able to print normally.

❏ You cannot use the cartridges that came with the printer for the replacement.

❏ Finish ink cartridge replacement promptly. Do not leave the printer with the ink cartridges removed.

########### Consumption of ink

❏ To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from all cartridges during maintenance

operations. Ink may also be consumed when you replace ink cartridges or turn the printer on.

❏ 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.

❏ The ink in the ink cartridges supplied with your printer is partly used during initial setup. In order to produce high quality printouts, the print head in your printer 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.

Maintaining the Printer

#### Checking and Cleaning the Print Head

If the nozzles are clogged, the printouts become faint, there is visible banding, or unexpected colors appear. When print quality has declined, use the nozzle check feature and check if the nozzles are clogged. If the nozzles are clogged, clean the print head.

|c

Important:

❏ Do not open the scanner unit or turn off the printer during head cleaning. If the head cleaning is incomplete, you

may not be able to print.

❏ Because print head cleaning uses some ink, clean the print head only if quality declines.

❏ When ink is low, you may not be able to clean the print head.

❏ If print quality has not improved after repeating nozzle check and head cleaning about two times, wait for at least six hours without printing, and then run the nozzle check again and repeat the head cleaning if necessary. We recommend to turn off the printer. If print quality has still not improved, contact Epson support.

❏ To prevent the print head from drying out, do not unplug the printer while the power is on.| |---|
