1.5.3 Memory Card Slots
Note: • Memory Stick/PRO, SD/MMC and xD-Picture Card shares the same slot.
• When cards are inserted in the two slots at once, the slot which will be accessed first is
determined according to the priority shown in the table.
• To select a card that has been inserted in a non-active slot, first remove the card in the
active slot.
• In memory card direct printing mode, the image files in the active slot are valid and
have assigned frame numbers. The number of images will not change if a card is
inserted in another nonselected slot.
• When the card inserted in the slot is accessed from the PC, only one drive is displayed
at a time as a removable disk* and only the card that is in the active slot can be
accessed via the removable disk. A card that has been inserted into a non-selected slot
cannot be accessed.
(This is for Windows. For Macintosh, the card in the active slot will be mounted on the
desktop.)
• Does not support 5V type of memory cards.
• When a memory card is being accessed, do not touch the memory card.
• For detailed information on the supported file system and formatting the memory card,
refer to “ 1.7.3 Memory Card Direct Print Function ( p. 36 ) ”.

1.7.3.7 Print Layout
The memory card direct print function supports two print layouts for printing images;
Borderless, and With Border. The Borderless layout is not allowed for some type of
paper (refer to Table 1-41 and Table 1-42). And see “ 1.2.5 Printing Area ” (p.20) for
information on the print area and margins of “Borderless” and “With Border” layouts.
Trimming Function
A trimming function is provided as a means of coordinating an image with the
types of photo frames handled by the printer. This function can be switched On/
Off. This function is described briefly below.
The printed photo frame and an image to be printed are matched in length along
one side and the image is resized along the perpendicular side to fit the frame on
that side. Any part of the image that does not fit within the photo frame is trimmed
away (not printed). However, if the number of pixels of the longer side of the
image are more than twice as long as the shortest side, the trimming function is not
effective when printing even the trimming is set. The trimming function is always
set On if borderless or upper half layout is selected.

Rules on Numbering and Rotating Images
The numbers shown in the figure below indicate the photo frame numbers used for
the print layout. Horizontally oriented images are printed as shown by the
numbers. Vertically oriented images, which has more pixels vertically than
horizontally, the vertical photo data is allocated instead, and the number shown in
the figure below is then rotated 90 degrees before being printed. In Index printing
mode, the numbers are printed as they are shown below, regardless of the shape of
the photo data.
However, when the photo data has an equal number of pixels vertically and
horizontally the photos are printed without rotation, regardless of the layout.
NOTE: The vertical photo data refers to when the photo data file itself is set for a
vertical (portrait) orientation. Photo data is defined as the vertical photo
data if it is taken by a digital camera with a portrait position detecting
function.)

Confidential
2.2 Power-On Sequence
This section describes the power-on sequences in two conditions. The sequences for
these three series are basically similar with the exception of the CR lock setting
sequence (operation 8); therefore, they are described based on NX510 series in the
following conditions.
Condition 1: Normal power-on sequence (refer to Table 2-4)
Turning on the printer after turning it off without an error.
Completing ink charge.
No paper on the paper path.
The Printhead is capped with the Cap of the Ink System.
The Carriage is fixed by the CR Lock.
NOTE: For SX410/SX210 series, the CR lock setting sequence (operation 8)
differs from the sequence for NX510 series.
Condition 2: Power-on sequence after recovering from a paper jam error
(refer to Table 2-5)
Turning on the printer after turning it off with a paper jam error.
There still remains paper on the paper path out of the detecting area of the PE
sensor.
NOTE: For SX410 series, the detecting remaining paper sequence (operation 6)
is not implemented.

Note *1 : The rotation directions of the PF Motor are as follows.
Clockwise : Paper is fed normally
Counterclockwise : Paper is fed backward
*2 : The conditions of the CR lock are as follows.
Red : CR lock is set
White : CR lock is released
*3 : Confirms the carriage is not deadlocked such as the CR lock is caught in the gap of the carriage.
*4 : Eject paper if any.
*5 : When paper exists, the existing measurement value is read out, so the PF motor does not rotate.
*6 : Executed when the detected temperature is under 5 oC (41 oF) by the thermistor on the
Printhead.
*7 : The empty suction operation may occur depending on situations.
*8 : When paper remains in the printer, rotates the PF Roller until the paper is forcibly ejected.
*9 : For NX510 series, the CR lock is actually set at the beginning of power-saving mode
for enhancing throughput.
*10 :This operation is applied for NX510 series only.
5. Checking for remaining paper on the paper path and
measurement of the PF Motor
5-1.The carriage slowly moves to the ASF trigger position.
5-2.Checks if paper exists with the PE sensor*4 and the PF Motor rotates
clockwise for one second. (PF initialization)
5-3.The carriage slowly moves to the 0-digit side, then to the ASF
trigger holding position.
5-4.The PF motor rotates clockwise for two seconds, and performs the
load measurement.*5
6. Low temperature operation sequence*6
6-1.The PF motor rotates clockwise, and releases the CR lock.
6-2.The carriage moves back and forth between the CR lock and the 80-
digit side for two times.
7. Detecting ink cartridge and initializing ink system*7
7-1.After rotating the PF motor clockwise to release the CR lock,
rotates the PF motor again clockwise for one second, and resets the
PF roller.*8
7-2.After the carriage moves to the 80-digit side and checks the ink end
sensor, detects the ink remaining.
7-3.The carriage quickly returns to its home position.

Confidential
Note : The power-on operations of SX410 series in condition 2 differs from the above
sequence since the detecting remaining paper sequence (operation 6) is not
implemented for SX410 series.
Note *1 : “Paper exists” is detected when the carriage touches the paper. When “paper does
not exist” is detected, the power-on sequence of condition 1(Table 2-4) is executed
from No.6.
*2 : If the paper jam error cannot be solved after repeating the power-on sequence on
condition 2 (Table 2-5) twice, the printer turns into the paper jam fatal error for the
third time.
2.3 Printer Initialization
There are four kinds of initialization method, and the following explains each
initialization
1. Hardware initialization
This printer is initialized when turning the printer power on, or printer recognized
the cold-reset command (remote RS command).

3.1 Overview
This chapter describes how to solve problems.
3.1.1 Specified Tools
This printer does not require any specified tools for troubleshooting.
3.1.2 Preliminary Checks
Before starting troubleshooting, be sure to verify that the following conditions
are all met:
The power supply voltage must be within the specification limits. (Measure the
voltage at the wall socket.)
The power code must be free from damage, short circuit or breakage, or miswiring
in the power code.
The printer must be grounded properly.
The printer should not be located in a place where it can be exposed to too high or
low temperature, too high or low humidity, or abrupt temperature change.
The printer should not be located near waterworks, near humidifiers, near heaters
or near flames, in a dusty atmosphere or in a place where the printer can be
exposed to blast from an air conditioner.
The printer should not be located in a place where volatile or inflammable gases
are produced.
The printer should not be located in a place where it can be exposed to direct rays
of the sun.
The printer must be placed on a strong and steady level table (without an
inclination larger than five degrees).
Any vibrating equipment must not be placed on or under the printer.
The paper used must conform to the specification.
There is no error in handling of the printer.
Check the inside of the printer, and remove foreign matters if any, such as paper
clips, staples, bits of paper, paper dust or toner.
Clean the inside of the printer and the rubber rolls.
W ARNING
To avoid electric shocks, be careful when checking the electrical
circuit boards below while the power is on.
• NX510 series: CA48 MAIN and C687 PSE/PSB boards
• SX410 series: CA20 MAIN and C687 PSE/PSB boards
• SX210 series: CA47 MAIN and C687 PSE/PSB boards
Touching an FET, transistor or heat sink with one hand while
touching a metal part of the mechanism with the other hand
could result in an electric shock, so carefully avoid this.
After initial filling of ink has been repeated several times,
immediate moving or tilting of the printer could result in
leaking of ink that has not been completely absorbed by the
Waste Ink Pad. When initial filling of ink has been repeated
several times, check the ink remaining in the tip of the Waste
Ink Tube and the waste ink not absorbed by the Waste Ink Pad
before moving the printer.
CHECK
P O I N T
Disassembly and reassembly of parts is often required when
identifying the causes of problems. The parts should be
disassembled and re-assembled correctly while referring to
“DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY” (p.91) so that the operation
and status of each check item can be correctly verified.
Some individual part and units may require adjustment once
they are removed or replaced. If removing or replacing parts
which have specific instructions for adjustment included in
“DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY” (p.91), be sure to make these
adjustments after repairing the problem location.

5.2.8 MAC Address Setting (NX510 series only)
Overview
NX510 series have a network function and stores there MAC address (Media
Access Control Address) in the EEPROM on the Main Board. The Main Board
supplied as an ASP does not come with the MAC address written on it,
therefore, you are required to set the MAC address to the new Main Board after
replacement. The following explains the procedure.
Preparation
When replacing the Main Board, make sure to note down the MAC address written on
a label on the MB Upper Shield Plate. If the address is not readable due to
contamination or any other cause, attach a new MAC address label (part code: TBD)
and note down the new address. See “ 4.4.1 Main Board Unit ” (p.105) for description
about the label position.
Setting flowchart
Figure 5-14. MAC Address Setting Flowchart
C A U T I O N
When the data of EEPROM on the old Main Board can be read
out, this adjustment is not required.
To avoid a conflict of MAC address on a network, make sure to
correctly follow the MAC address setting flowchart given on the
right.
The user should be notified of the change of MAC address
because of the following reasons.
• If the user has set the printer’s MAC address on a router, the
repaired printer with a new MAC address cannot be
connected to the network.
• The default printer name on a network consists of “EPSON”
and the last six digits of the MAC address. Therefore, the
printer name becomes different from the previous one.
CHECK
P O I N T
You are required to enter the last six digits of the MAC address
(xx:yy:zz) on the Adjustment Program.
MAC address example: 00:00:48:xx:yy:zz
(“xx, yy, zz” represents a value unique to each printer)
Yes
Replace the Main Board with a new one.
Enter the new label MAC address using
the Adjustment Program and set it.
END
Replace the Main Board with
a new one.

6.1 Overview
This section provides information to maintain the printer in its optimum condition.
6.1.1 Cleaning
This printer has no mechanical components which require regular cleaning except the
Printhead. Therefore, when returning the printer to the user, check the following parts
and perform appropriate cleaning if stain is noticeable.
Exterior parts
Use a clean soft cloth moistened with water, and wipe off any dirt. If the exterior
parts are stained by the ink, use a cloth moistened with neutral detergent to wipe it
off.
Inside the printer
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any paper dust.
LD Roller
When paper loading function does not operate because friction of the LD roller is
lowered by any paper dust, use a soft cloth moistened with alcohol to remove the
paper dust.
6.1.2 Service Maintenance
If any abnormal print (dot missing, white line, etc.) has occurred or the printer indicates
the “Maintenance request error” (This error is displayed as “Service Required” in the
STM3), take the following actions to clear the error.
6.1.2.1 Printhead cleaning
When dot missing or banding phenomenon has occurred, you need to perform the
Printhead cleaning operation* by using the Printhead cleaning function. This function
can be performed by the control panel operation, the printer driver utility and the
Adjustment program.
* : This product has three modes for manual cleaning, and even during printing, the
appropriate cleaning mode is automatically selected and performed according to
various conditions. Therefore the ink consumption amount for manual cleaning
varies depending on each mode.
6.1.2.2 Maintenance request error
Ink is used for the Printhead cleaning or cap flushing operation as well as the printing
operation. When the ink is used for the Printhead cleaning or flushing operation, the
ink is drained via the pump to the Waste ink pads. The amount of the waste ink is
stored as the waste ink counter into the EEPROM on the Main Board. Due to this,
when the waste ink counter has reached the limit of the absorbing capability of the
Waste ink pads, the Maintenance call error is indicated on Status monitor 3. However,
the limit value of the waste ink counter varies according to the usage.
When the maintenance request error has occurred, replace the waste ink pad with new
one and clear the waste ink counter stored into the EEPROM. If the waste ink counter
is closed to its limit, we recommend to replace the Waste ink pad with new one. This is
because the Maintenance request error will may occur after returning the repaired
product to the customer.
C A U T I O N
Never use chemical solvents, such as thinner, benzine, and
acetone to clean the exterior parts of the printer like the
Housing. These chemicals may deform or deteriorate the
components of the printer.
Be careful not to damage any components when you clean
inside the printer.
Do not scratch the coated surface of the PF roller. Use a soft
brush to wipe off any dusts.
Use a soft cloth moistened with alcohol to remove the ink stain.
When using compressed air products; such as air duster, for
cleaning during repair and maintenance, the use of such
products containing flammable gas is prohibited.
CHECK
P O I N T
Refer to following chapter about indication of the maintenance
request error.
