❏ Do not use a damaged or frayed power cord.
❏ 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.
❏ Do not attempt to service the printer yourself.
❏ 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.
❏ If you plan to use the printer in Germany, the building
installation must be protected by a10 or 16 amp circuit breaker
to provide adequate short-circuit protection and over-current
protection for this printer.
When choosing a place for the printer
Observe the following when choosing a place for the printer:
❏ Place the printer on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond
the base of the printer in all directions. If you place the printer
by the wall, leave more than 10 cm between the back of the
printer and the wall. The printer will not operate properly if
it is tilted at an angle.
❏ When storing or transporting the printer, do not tilt it, stand
it on its side, or turn it upside down. Otherwise, ink may leak
from the cartridges.

❏ 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.
❏ Avoid places subject to dust, shocks, or vibrations.
❏ Leave enough room around the printer to allow for sufficient
ventilation.
❏ Place the printer near a wall outlet where the plug can be
easily unplugged.
When using the printer
Observe the following when using the printer:
❏ Do not insert objects through the slots in the printer.
❏ Take care not to spill liquid on the printer.
❏ Do not put your hand inside the printer or touch the ink
cartridges during printing.
❏ Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise, you may
damage the printer.
❏ Always turn the printer off using the P power button. When
this button is pressed, the LCD panel goes blank. Do not
unplug the printer or turn off the power to the outlet until the
LCD panel goes blank.
❏ Before transporting the printer, make sure that the print head
is in the home (far right) position and the ink cartridges are
in place.

❏ Leave the ink cartridges installed. Removing the cartridges
can dehydrate the print head and may prevent the printer
from printing.
When using a memory card
❏ Do not remove the memory card or turn off the printer while
the computer and the memory card are communicating
(when any one of the memory card lights is flashing.).
❏ The methods for using memory cards vary according to card
type. Be sure to refer to the documentation packaged with
your memory card for details.
❏ Use only memory cards compatible with the printer. Refer to
Loading Memory Cards.
When using LCD panel or the optional Preview
Monitor
❏ The LCD panel or optional Preview Monitor may contain a
few small bright or dark spots. These are normal and do not
mean that the LCD monitor is damaged in any way.
❏ Only use a dry, soft cloth to clean the LCD panel or the
optional Preview Monitor. Do not use liquid or chemical
cleansers.
❏ If the LCD panel on your printer's control panel or optional
Preview Monitor 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.

❏ Do not remove the Preview Monitor slot cover unless you are
using the optional Preview Monitor.
When using the optional Bluetooth Photo Print
Adapter
Refer to Bluetooth Photo Print Adapter for the safety instructions
when using the Bluetooth Adapter.
When handling the ink cartridges
Observe the following when handling the ink cartridges:
❏ Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children. Do not allow
children to drink from or otherwise handle the cartridges.
❏ Do not shake the ink cartridges; this can cause leakage.
❏ Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges, as there may
be some ink remaining around the ink supply port. If ink gets
on your skin, wash the area thoroughly with soap and water.
If ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water.
If discomfort or vision problems remain after a thorough
flushing, see a doctor immediately.
❏ Do not remove or tear the label on the cartridge; this can cause
leakage.
❏ Install the ink cartridge immediately after you remove it from
its package. If you leave a cartridge unpacked for a long time
before using it, normal printing may not be possible.
❏ Do not use an ink cartridge beyond the date printed on the
cartridge carton: otherwise, it may result in reduced print
quality. For best results, use up the ink cartridges within six
months of first installing them.

❏ Do not dismantle the ink cartridges or try to refill them. This
could damage the print head.
❏ 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 in a cool, dark place.
❏ Do not touch the green IC chip on the back of the cartridge.
Doing so may prevent normal operation and printing.
❏ The IC chip on this ink cartridge retains a variety of cartridge
related-information such as the amount of ink remaining, so
that the cartridge may be removed and reinserted freely.
However, each time the cartridge is inserted, some ink is
consumed because the printer automatically performs a
reliability check.
❏ 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 printer. A valve in the ink supply port
makes covers or plugs unnecessary, but the ink may stain
items that come into contact with this area of the cartridge.
Do not touch the ink supply port or the surrounding area.

Effectiveness
Exif Print
When taking photographs using an Exif Print compatible digital
camera, information about camera settings and scene conditions
when the photograph was taken is embedded in the photo data.
Such information includes exposure mode, white balance, gain
control, contrast, saturation, and sharpness, among other
attributes. The printer then corrects and enhances the photo data
using this information and prints an image that reflects the
original scene captured by the digital camera.

PRINT Image Matching
PRINT Image Matching gives control of the printing process to
the digital camera, allowing printed images to reflect the camera’s
distinctive qualities. When taking photographs using a PRINT
Image Matching compatible digital camera, print command
information from the camera is embedded in the photo data. The
print command then instructs the printer how to correct color and
details based on information stored at the moment the photo was
taken. Digital camera settings that create the print command
include the gamma, color space, color balance, shadow point,

Replacing an Ink Cartridge
This printer uses ink cartridges equipped with IC chips. The IC
chip accurately monitors the amount of ink used by each
cartridge, so even if a cartridge is removed and later reinserted,
all of its ink can be used. However, some ink is consumed each
time the cartridge is inserted because the printer automatically
checks reliability.
You can replace an ink cartridge using the printer’s control panel
. Refer to the appropriate section below for instructions.
Warning:
❏ Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children. Do not allow
children to drink from or otherwise handle the cartridges.
❏ Be careful when you handle the used ink cartridges, as there
may be some ink around the ink supply port. If ink gets on
your skin, wash the area thoroughly with soap and water. If
ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water.
If discomfort or vision problems remain after a thorough
flushing, see a doctor immediately.
Caution:
❏ Epson recommends the use of genuine Epson ink cartridges.
Other products not manufactured by Epson may cause
damage to your printer not covered by Epson's warranties.
❏ Leave the old cartridge installed in the printer until you have
obtained a replacement; otherwise, ink remaining in the print
head nozzles may dry out.
❏ Do not refill the ink cartridges. The printer calculates the
amount of ink remaining using an IC chip on the ink
cartridge. Even if the cartridge is refilled, the amount of ink
remaining will not be recalculated by the IC chip and the
amount of ink available for use will not change.

Note:
❏ You cannot continue printing with one ink cartridge empty, even if
the other cartridges still contains ink. Before printing, replace the
empty cartridge.
❏ In addition to the ink used during document printing, ink is
consumed during the print head cleaning operation, during the
self-cleaning cycle which is performed when the printer is turned
on, and during ink charging when the ink cartridge is installed in
the printer.
❏ You can check which cartridge needs replacing with the LCD panel.
See “Using the LCD panel” on page 63 for detail.
For more information about ink cartridges.
& See “When handling the ink cartridges” on page 11
Using the printer's control panel buttons
1. Make sure that the printer is on, but not printing, then open
the paper support and the printer cover.
Note:
❏ Make sure the CD/DVD tray is not inserted in the printer before
you replace the ink cartridge.
❏ To check the ink Levels, press the d button to scroll to the next
screen. The ink part of the ink icon displayed in the LCD panel
flashes when the ink runs low. When the ink runs out, the entire
ink icon flashes and a message is displayed.
2. Check that the message “ink out” is displayed in the LCD
panel and press the maintenance button. This message is not
displayed if there is some ink left. In this case, press the

Do not touch this part.
❏ If you remove an ink cartridge for later use, be sure to
protect the ink supply area from dirt and dust; store it in
the same environment as the printer. Be sure to store the
cartridge as shown in the illustration. 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 supply port or surrounding area.
❏ Be sure to always install an ink cartridge into the printer
immediately following the removal of the current ink
cartridge. If the ink cartridge is not installed promptly,

the printer in Public mode once, it
will subsequently be able to
communicate with and print from it
in Private mode.
