You can run a printer check to determine whether a problem comes from the printer itself or some other source. ❏ Always load paper short edge first, even when printing landscape-oriented pictures. 1. Make sure both the printer and computer are turned off. Then disconnect the USB cable from the printer. ❏ Always handle sheets by the edges, and don’t touch the printable surface. 2. Make sure letter-size or larger paper is loaded in the printer. 3. Hold down the b maintenance button, then press and release the Ppower button. Continue holding down the b maintenance button until the P power light starts to flash, then release it. ❏ Be sure to load the printable (whiter) side of the media face up in the sheet feeder. ❏ You can load paper up to the tab on the right edge guide. The printer prints one page showing its ROM version number and a nozzle check pattern. (If the pattern has gaps in its dots, you need to clean the print head; see page 6.) ❏ In addition to the Media Type setting, remember to select the correct Paper Size for your media in the printer software. 4. Turn off the printer after it prints the check page. Then reconnect the cable and turn on your printer and computer. ❏ If the special media has protective sheets between each sheet of media, be sure to remove the protective sheets before printing. ❏ If the check page prints, the problem probably lies in your software settings, interface cable, or computer. Your software may not be installed correctly. ❏ Some special media have a cut corner that you need to position in the upper right corner when you load it. ❏ You can load the following number of sheets of EPSON special media: ❏ If the check page doesn’t print, you may have a problem with your printer.

This unclogs the nozzles so they can deliver ink properly. Print head cleaning uses ink, so clean it only if quality declines. To ensure good results, use genuine EPSON ink cartridges and don’t refill them. Other products may cause damage to your printer not covered by EPSON’s warranty. Use these ink cartridges before the expiration date on the package: This section explains how to clean the print head using the Head Cleaning utility. This is the recommended method when the printer is connected directly to your computer (not over a network). ❏ Black: T013201 (U.S.) or T013311 (Canada) ❏ Color: T014201 (U.S.) or T014311 (Canada) Low ink: b error light flashes and a status screen appears telling you which cartridge is low. You can also clean the print head by holding down the b maintenance button on the printer’s control panel for three seconds when the b error light is off. See the electronic Reference Guide on your printer software CD-ROM for detailed instructions. Empty cartridge: b error light stays lit and the empty cartridge is indicated on the screen; you must replace it to continue printing. 1. Open the printer cover and press the b maintenance button for 6 seconds. The print head moves to the cartridge’s replacement position. (If both ink cartridges need replacement, it moves to the black cartridge position first.) When you don’t turn on your printer for a long time, the print quality can decline. It’s a good idea to turn on your printer at least once a month to maintain good print quality. Running the Head Cleaning Utility 2. Lift the ink cartridge clamp and remove the cartridge. Follow these steps to run the Head Cleaning utility: 3. Unpack the new ink cartridge and remove the yellow tab. 1. Make sure the printer is turned on but not printing, and the b error light is off. (If the b error light is flashing or on, you may need to replace the ink cartridge; see the section to the left for details.) 2. Do one of the following: ❏ Windows: right-click the Status Monitor 3 icon on the right side of the Windows taskbar. Then click Head Cleaning. If ink gets on your hands, wash them with soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with water. ❏ Windows: click Start, point to Settings, then select Printers. Right-click the EPSON Stylus C40 printer icon and select Properties (Windows 98 or Me) or Printing Preferences (Windows 2000). Click the Utility tab, then click the Head Cleaning button. 4. Insert the new cartridge and close the clamp. ❏ Macintosh: Open the File menu and choose Page Setup or Print. Click the Utility button, then click the Head Cleaning button. 3. Follow the instructions on the screen to clean the print head. Cleaning takes about 30 seconds, during which the printer makes some noise and the P power light flashes. 5. Press the b maintenance button and close the printer cover. (If the other cartridge needs replacement, the print head moves into loading position. Repeat steps 2 through 5.) Never turn off the printer while the P power light is flashing, unless the printer hasn’t moved or made noise for more than 5 minutes. 4. When the P power light stops flashing, run a nozzle check to confirm the print head nozzles are clean. 6. Wait until ink charging is finished (the P power light stops flashing and the b error light goes out). 6 - EPSON Stylus C40UX 5/01 EPSON Stylus C40UX Make sure plain paper (not special ink jet paper) is loaded in the printer and click Print nozzle check pattern. Then click Print. The nozzle check pattern prints (see the next section for details). Aligning the Print Head If your printouts contain misaligned vertical lines, you may need to align the print head. Your printer must be connected to a local port, not on a network, to use the Print Head Alignment utility. 5. If the nozzle check pattern has no gaps in its dots, click Finish. If the pattern is missing dots, click Clean to clean the print head again. 1. Make sure the printer is turned on, but not printing, and letter-size plain paper (not special ink jet paper) is loaded. If you don’t see any improvement after cleaning three or four times, check the solutions in the electronic Reference Guide on your printer software CD-ROM. You can also turn the printer off and wait overnight—this allows any dried ink to soften—and then try cleaning the print head again. Load paper that’s at least 8.27 inches (210 mm) wide to prevent ink from spraying inside the printer and smudging your printouts. 2. Do one of the following: ❏ Windows: right-click the Status Monitor 3 icon on the right side of the Windows taskbar. Then click Print Head Alignment. Examining the Nozzle Check Pattern ❏ Windows: click Start, point to Settings, then select Printers. Right-click the EPSON Stylus C40UX printer icon and select Properties (Windows 98 or Me) or Printing Preferences (Windows 2000). Click the Utility tab, then click the Print Head Alignment button. Examine the nozzle check pattern you print. Each black and colored area should be complete, with no gaps in the dot pattern, as shown below: ❏ Macintosh: Open the File menu and choose Page Setup or Print. Click the Utility button, then click the Print Head Alignment button. ❏ If your printout looks okay, you’re done. ❏ If any dots or lines are missing (as shown below), clean the print head again; see the previous section for instructions. 3. Follow the instructions on the screen to print a test page. You see the alignment window. 4. On the printed page, select the pattern that shows the two vertical lines most precisely printed on top of each other. You may need to use a magnifying glass. Select one pattern each for rows 1, 2, and 3. Then enter the number of the best pattern for each row in the corresponding boxes on the screen. 5. Click Realignment to print another test page. Make sure the pattern numbered 8 in each row is the best aligned. If not, repeat steps 3 and 4. 6. When you’re finished, click Finish. 4/01 EPSON Stylus C40UX - 7 EPSON Stylus C40UX Cleaning the Printer 3. Remove any paper from the printer and remove the paper support.

Secure the ink cartridge holder to the printer with tape as shown, then close the printer cover. 1. Turn off the printer, unplug the power cord, and disconnect the printer cable. Tape the ink cartridge holder to the printer case 2. Remove all paper, then use a soft brush to clean any dust or dirt from the sheet feeder. 3. Clean the exterior of the printer with a soft, damp cloth. 4. Clean ink out of the printer’s interior with a soft, damp cloth. 5. Push in the output tray. Don’t clean the print head guide rail. 6. Repack the printer and its attachments in the original box using the protective materials that came with them. See your Start Here sheet. Keep the printer level as you transport it. Don’t touch the gears inside the printer. After transporting the printer, remove the tape securing the print head and test your printer. If you notice a decline in print quality, clean the print head (see page 6); if output is misaligned, align the print head (see page 7). Never use a hard or abrasive brush, or alcohol or thinner for cleaning; they can damage the printer components and case. Don’t get water on the printer components and don’t spray lubricants or oils inside the printer. Related Documentation Don’t use any cleaning sheets included with special paper; they may jam inside the printer. Transporting the Printer If you move your printer some distance, you need to prepare it for transportation in its original box or one of a similar size. To avoid damage, always leave the ink cartridges installed when transporting the printer. Be sure to remove the tape used in step 4 after installing the printer in its new location. Follow these steps: 1. Turn on the printer, wait until the print head locks in the far right position, then turn off the printer. 2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Then disconnect the printer cable from the printer. 8 - EPSON Stylus C40UX 5/01 TM-SC40UX EPSON Stylus C40UX Service Manual PL-SC40UX EPSON Stylus C40UX Parts Price List CPD-12408 EPSON Stylus C40UX Start Here CPD-12420 EPSON Stylus C40UX Notices booklet CPD-12409 EPSON Stylus C40UX CD-ROM with Reference Guide CPD-12433 EPSON Stylus C40UX slipsheet
