Loading Paper
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, 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.

Ink Cartridge Handling Precautions
Read the following instructions before replacing ink cartridges.
Handling precautions
❏ Store ink cartridges at normal room temperature and keep them away from direct sunlight.
❏ 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.
❏ Aer 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 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 move the print head by hand; otherwise, you may damage the printer.
❏ Do not turn
o
the printer during ink charging. If the ink charging is incomplete, you may not be able to print.
User's Guide
Replacing Ink Cartridges and Other Consumables
65
❏ Do not leave the printer with the ink cartridges removed; otherwise, ink remaining in the print head nozzles
may dry out and you may not be able to print.
❏ If you need to remove an ink cartridge temporarily, make sure you protect the ink supply area from dirt and
dust. Store the ink cartridge in the same environment as the printer. Because 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.
❏ Removed ink cartridges may have ink around the ink supply port, so be careful not to get any ink on the
surrounding area when removing the cartridges.
❏
is
printer uses ink cartridges equipped with an IC chip that monitors information such as the amount of
remaining ink for each cartridge. is means that even if the cartridge is removed from the printer before it is
expended, you can still use the cartridge aer reinserting it back into the printer.
❏ 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. e yields quoted for you do not
include this reserve.
❏ Although the ink cartridges may contain recycled materials, this does not
aect
printer function or
performance.
❏ Do not disassemble or remodel the ink cartridge, otherwise you may not be able to print normally.
❏ Do not drop or knock it against hard objects; otherwise, the ink may leak.
❏ You cannot use the cartridges that came with the printer for the replacement.
❏ 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.
Consumption of Ink
❏ To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from all cartridges not only during
printing but also during maintenance operations such as print head cleaning.
❏ When printing in monochrome or grayscale, color inks instead of black ink may be used depending on the
paper type or print quality settings. is is because a mixture of color inks is used to create black.
❏ e 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. is one-o process
consumes a quantity of ink and therefore these cartridges may print fewer pages compared to subsequent ink
cartridges.

Replacing a Maintenance Box
In some print cycles a very small amount of surplus ink may be collected in the maintenance box. To prevent ink
leakage from the maintenance box, the printer is designed to stop printing when the absorbing capacity of the
maintenance box has reached its limit. Whether and how oen 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 printer performs.
Replace the maintenance box when you are promoted to do so. e Epson Status Monitor, your LCD, or lights on
the control panel will advise you when this part needs replacing. e need for replacement of the box does not
mean that your printer has ceased to operate in accordance with its specications. e Epson warranty does not
cover the cost of this replacement. It is a user-serviceable part.
