Maintaining Your Product 23
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.
1. Load a few sheets of plain paper in the cassette.
2. Press if necessary, then press lor r and select Setup.
3. Select Maintenance, then Nozzle Check.
4. Press one of the x buttons. The nozzle check is printed.
5. Check the printed pattern to see if there are gaps in the lines.
6. If there are no gaps, the print head is clean. Select Done.
If there are gaps or the pattern is faint, select Clean the Print Head. Then follow the
instructions on the screen to clean the print head (see page 24).
Nozzles are clean Nozzles need cleaning
Cindy_FD_QG.book Page 23 Tuesday, May 29, 2012 2:35 PM
24 Cleaning the Print Head
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.

2. Select Maintenance, then Head Cleaning.
3. When you see the first screen, press OK, then choose the ink set 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.
4. Select Print Nozzle Check Pattern. Then press one of the x buttons to print the
nozzle check and confirm that the print head is clean.
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 34.
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.

26 Replacing Ink Cartridges
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 product ships with full cartridges
and part of the ink from the first cartridges is used for priming the product.
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.
Replacing Ink Cartridges
Make sure you have a new ink cartridge before you begin. You must install new cartridges
immediately after removing the old ones.
Caution: Do not open ink cartridge packages until you are ready to install the ink.
Cartridges are vacuum packed to maintain reliability.
Leave the expended cartridge installed until you have obtained a replacement, or the
ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out.
Note: If you remove a low or expended ink cartridge, you cannot reinstall and use the
cartridge.
1. Turn on the product.
2. If an ink cartridge is low or expended, you see a message on the LCD screen
indicating which color to replace.
If youre replacing a cartridge before you see a message on the LCD screen, select
Setup, select Maintenance, then select Ink Cartridge Replacement. Press one of
the x buttons to start the replacement process.
3. Lift up the scanner.

4. Open the cartridge cover. Then squeeze the tab on the cartridge and lift it up. Dispose
of it carefully. Do not take the used cartridge apart or try to refill it.
Warning: If ink gets on your skin, wash it off thoroughly with soap and water. If it
gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If you still have discomfort
or vision problems, see a doctor immediately. Keep ink cartridges out of the reach
of children and don’t allow them to drink the ink.
5. Before you open the new cartridge package, shake it gently 4 or 5 times. Then remove
it from the package.
6. Remove the yellow tape from the bottom of the ink cartridge.
Caution: Do not remove any other labels or seals, or ink may leak. Do not touch
the green chip on the front of the cartridge. This can damage the ink cartridge.

28 Replacing Ink Cartridges
7. Insert the new ink cartridge into the holder and push it down until it clicks into place.
Once you replace all the cartridges that need replacing, close the cartridge cover and
push it down until it clicks into place.
8. Lower the scanner to begin priming the ink. This takes a few minutes.
When you see a completion message on the LCD screen, ink priming is finished.
Caution: Never turn off the product while ink is priming or you’ll waste ink. If you still
see an ink replacement message on the LCD screen, press OK and press down all the
cartridges securely. Then press OK again. If you remove a low or expended ink
cartridge, you cannot reinstall and use the cartridge.

Important Safety Instructions
Before using your EPSON product, read and follow these safety instructions:
Be sure to follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
Use only the type of power source indicated on the product label.
Use only the power cord that comes with the product. Use of another cord may cause fires or
shock. Do not use the cord with any other equipment. Make sure the power cord meets all
relevant local safety standards.
Place the product near a wall outlet where the plug can be easily unplugged.
If you won’t be using the product for a long period, unplug the power cord from the electrical
outlet.
Always turn off the product using the Ppower button, and wait until the Ppower light stops
flashing before unplugging the product or cutting off power to the electrical outlet.
Avoid plugging the product into an outlet on the same circuit as a photocopier or air
conditioning system that regularly switches on and off, or on an outlet controlled by a wall
switch or timer.
Do not let the power cord become damaged or frayed. Place it to avoid abrasions, cuts, fraying,
crimping, and kinking. Do not place objects on top of it and do not allow it to be stepped on or
run over. Be careful to keep the cord straight at each end. If damage occurs to the plug, replace
the cord or consult a qualified electrician.
If you use an extension cord with the product, make sure the total ampere rating of the devices
plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord’s ampere rating. Also, make sure the
total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s

if the panel surface chips or cracks, and do not touch or attempt to remove the broken pieces.
Condensation inside the panel due to abrupt changes in temperature or humidity may cause
performance to deteriorate.
Cindy_FD_QG.book Page 36 Tuesday, May 29, 2012 2:35 PM
Important Safety Instructions 37
Ink Cartridge Safety
Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and don’t allow them to drink the ink.
Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges; there may be ink remaining around the ink
supply port. If ink gets on your skin, wash it off thoroughly with soap and water. If it gets in
your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If you still have discomfort or vision problems,
see a doctor immediately.
Do not put your hand inside the product or touch any cartridges during printing.
Before transporting the product, make sure that the print head is in the home (far right)
position and the ink cartridges are in place.
Install a new ink cartridge immediately after removing an expended one. Leaving cartridges
uninstalled can dry out the print head and may prevent the product from printing.
Do not touch the green IC chip on the side of the cartridge. This may prevent normal
operation.
Do not shake ink cartridges too vigorously or after opening their packages; this can cause them
to leak.
If you remove an ink cartridge for later use, protect the ink supply area from dirt and dust and
store it in the same environment as the product. Note that there is a valve in the ink supply
port, making covers or plugs unnecessary, but care is needed to prevent the ink from staining
items that the cartridge touches. Do not touch the ink cartridge ink supply port or surrounding
area. Do not store cartridges upside down.
Use an ink cartridge before the date printed on its package.
Do not dismantle an ink cartridge. This could damage the print head.
Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place.
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 with their labels facing upward. Do not store cartridges upside down.
Be careful not to break the hooks on the side of the ink cartridge when you remove it from the
package.
To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from some cartridges
not only during printing but also during maintenance operations such as ink cartridge
replacement and print head cleaning.
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.

40 FCC Compliance Statement
According to the FCC's electrical safety advisory, we recommend that you may install an AC surge
arrestor in the AC outlet to which this equipment is connected. Telephone companies report that
electrical surges, typically lightning transients, are very destructive to customer terminal equipment
connected to AC power sources and that this is a major nationwide problem.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to
radio and television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
WARNING
The connection of a non-shielded equipment interface cable to this equipment will invalidate the
FCC Certification of this device and may cause interference levels which exceed the limits
established by the FCC for this equipment. It is the responsibility of the user to obtain and use a
shielded equipment interface cable with this device. If this equipment has more than one interface
connector, do not leave cables connected to unused interfaces. Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
For Canadian Users
1. This product meets the applicable Industry Canada technical specifications.

be connected to a telephone interface. The termination on an interface may consist of any
combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the RENs of all the devices
does not exceed five.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Le présent matériel est conforme aux spécifications techniques applicables d’Industrie Canada.
L’indice d’équivalence de la sonnerie (IES) sert à indiquer le nombre maximal de terminaux qui peuvent

Epson America, Inc., Limited Warranty 41
Epson America, Inc., Limited Warranty
What Is Covered: Epson America, Inc. (“Epson”) warrants to the original retail purchaser that the
EPSON printer covered by this limited warranty statement, if purchased and operated only in the
United States, Canada, or Puerto Rico, will be free from defects in workmanship and materials for a
period of one (1) year from the date of original purchase. For warranty service, you must provide
proof of the date of original purchase.
What Epson Will Do To Correct Problems: Should your EPSON printer prove defective during the
warranty period, please call the EPSON Connection at (562) 276-4382 (U.S.) or (905) 709-3839
(Canada) for warranty repair instructions and return authorization. An EPSON service technician
will provide telephone diagnostic service to determine whether the printer requires service. If service
is needed, Epson will, at its option, exchange or repair the printer without charge for parts or labor. If
Epson authorizes an exchange for the defective unit, Epson will ship a replacement printer to you,
freight prepaid, so long as you use an address in the United States, Canada, or Puerto Rico.
Shipments to other locations will be made freight collect. You are responsible for securely packaging
the defective unit and returning it to Epson within five (5) working days of receipt of the
replacement. Epson requires a debit or a credit card number to secure the cost of the replacement
printer in the event that you fail to return the defective one. If Epson authorizes repair instead of
exchange, Epson will direct you to send your printer to Epson or its authorized service center, where
the printer will be repaired and sent back to you. You are responsible for packing the printer and for
all costs to and from the EPSON authorized service center. When warranty service involves the
exchange of the printer or a part, the item replaced becomes Epson property. The replacement
printer or part may be new or refurbished to the Epson standard of quality, and, at Epson's option,
may be another model of like kind and quality. Exchange products and parts assume the remaining
warranty period of your original product covered by this limited warranty.
What This Warranty Does Not Cover: This warranty covers only normal use in the United States,
Canada, or Puerto Rico. Using this product for continuous production or similar high duty purposes
is not considered normal use; damage, maintenance or service from such use will not be covered
under this warranty. This warranty is not transferable. This warranty does not cover any color change
or fading of prints or reimbursement of materials or services required for reprinting. This warranty
does not cover damage to the EPSON product caused by parts or supplies not manufactured,
distributed or certified by Epson. This warranty does not cover ribbons, ink cartridges or third party
parts, components, or peripheral devices added to the EPSON product after its shipment from
Epson, e.g., dealer or user-added boards or components. Epson is not responsible for warranty
service should the Epson label or logo or the rating label or serial number be removed or should the
product fail to be properly maintained or fail to function properly as a result of misuse, abuse,
improper installation, neglect, improper shipping, damage caused by disasters such as fire, flood, and
lightning, improper electrical current, software problems, interaction with non-EPSON products, or
service other than by an EPSON Authorized Servicer. If a claimed defect cannot be identified or
reproduced, you will be held responsible for the costs incurred.
THE WARRANTY AND REMEDY PROVIDED ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF
ALL OTHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED
TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT OR
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SOME LAWS DO NOT ALLOW THE
EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES. IF THESE LAWS APPLY, THEN ALL EXPRESS
AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD

In Canada, warranties include both warranties and conditions.
Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, and some
jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the
above limitations and exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights,
