manual for future reference.

Advisories and Warnings for Setting Up the Printer


❏ Do not block or cover the vents and openings in the printer.
❏ Use only the type of power source indicated on the printer's label.
❏ Avoid using outlets on the same circuit as photocopiers or air control systems that regularly switch on and off.
❏ Avoid electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers.
❏ Keep the entire computer system away from potential sources of electromagnetic interference, such as
loudspeakers or the base units of cordless telephones.
❏ The power-supply cords should be placed to avoid abrasions, cuts, fraying, crimping, and kinking. Do not place
objects on top of the power-supply cords and do not allow the power-supply cords to be stepped on or run over.
Be particularly careful to keep all the power-supply cords straight at the ends and the points where they enter
and leave the transformer.
❏ 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.
❏ If you plan to use the printer in Germany, the building installation must be protected by a 10 or 16 amp circuit
breaker to provide adequate short-circuit protection and over-current protection for the printer.
❏ When connecting the printer to a computer or other device with a cable, ensure the correct orientation of the
connectors. Each connector has only one correct orientation. Inserting a connector in the wrong orientation
may damage both devices connected by the cable.
❏ Place the printer on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond the base of the printer in all directions. The printer
will not operate properly if it is tilted at an angle.
❏ Allow space above the printer so that you can fully raise the document cover.
❏ 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

Paper Handling Precautions


❏ Read the instruction sheets supplied with the paper.
❏ To achieve high-quality printouts with genuine Epson paper, use the paper in the environment stated on the
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, flatten it or curl it slightly in the opposite direction before loading. Printing on curled
paper may cause paper jams and smears on the printout.

❏ Paper feed problems may occur frequently for manual 2-sided printing when printing on one side of pre-
printed paper. Reduce the number of sheets to half or less, or load one sheet of paper at a time if paper jams
continue.
❏ 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 confirm the paper specifications.
❏ Fan and align the edges of the envelopes before loading. When the stacked envelopes are puffed up with air,
press them down to flatten them before loading.

printed paper.

Paper Size and Type Settings


If you register the paper size and type on the screen displayed when you insert the paper cassette, the printer
informs you when the registered information and print settings differ. This prevents you from wasting paper and
ink by making sure you are not printing on the wrong paper size or printing using poor print quality due to
settings that do not match the paper type.

If displayed paper size and type differ from the loaded paper, select the item to change. If the settings match the
loaded paper, close the screen.

Running Power Cleaning


The Power Cleaning feature may improve print quality in the following cases.
❏ When most nozzles are clogged.
❏ When you have performed a nozzle check and head cleaning 3 times and waited for at least 12 hours without
printing, but print quality still did not improve.

Before running this feature, use the nozzle check feature to check if the nozzles are clogged, read the following
instructions, and then run Power Cleaning.

c Important:
Make sure that there is enough ink in the ink tank.
Visually check the ink tank is at least a third full. Low ink levels during Power Cleaning could damage the product.

c Important:
An interval of 12 hours is required between each Power Cleaning.
Normally, a single Power Cleaning should resolve the print quality issue within 12 hours. Therefore, to avoid
unnecessary ink usage, you must wait 12 hours before you try it again.

c Important:
Maintenance box replacement may be required.
Ink will be deposited to the maintenance box. If it becomes full, you must prepare and install a replacement
maintenance box to continue printing.

Note:
When the ink levels or the free space in the maintenance box are insufficient for Power Cleaning, you cannot run this
feature. Even in this case, the levels and the free space for printing may remain.

1. Select Maintenance on the home screen.

2. Select Power Cleaning.

3. Follow the on-screen instructions to run the Power Cleaning feature.

Preventing nozzle clogging


Always use the power button when turning the printer on and off.
Check that the power light is off before you disconnect the power cord.
The ink itself can dry out if it is not covered. Just like placing a cap on a fountain pen or an oil pen to prevent it
from drying, make sure the print head is capped properly to prevent the ink from drying.
When the power cord is unplugged or a power outage occurs while the printer is in operation, the print head may
not be capped properly. If the print head is left as it is, it will dry out causing nozzles (ink outlets) to clog.
In these cases, turn the printer on and off again as soon as possible to cap the print head.

Aligning the Print Head


If you notice a misalignment of vertical lines or blurred images, align the print head.

1. Select Maintenance on the printer's control panel.

It is Time to Refill the Ink

Ink Bottle Handling Precautions


Read the following instructions before refilling ink.

Storing precautions for ink


❏ Keep the ink bottles out of direct sunlight.
❏ Do not store the ink bottles in high or freezing temperatures.
❏ After bringing an ink bottle inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room temperature for at least
three hours before using it.
❏ Once you open an ink bottle, we recommend using it as soon as possible.
❏ Epson recommends using the ink bottle before the date printed on the package.
❏ Do not open the ink bottle package until you are ready to fill the ink tank. The ink bottle is vacuum packed to
maintain its reliability. If you leave an ink bottle unpacked for a long time before using it, normal printing may
not be possible.
❏ When storing or transporting an ink bottle, do not tilt the bottle and do not subject it to impacts or temperature
changes. Otherwise, ink may leak even if the cap on the ink bottle is tightened securely. Be sure to keep the ink
bottle upright when tightening the cap, and take precautions to prevent ink from leaking when transporting the
bottle, for example, putting the bottle in a bag.

165
Solving Problems > It is Time to Refill the Ink > Refilling the Ink Tank

Handling precautions for refilling ink


❏ The ink for this printer must be handled carefully. Ink may splatter when the ink tank is being filled or refilled
with ink. If ink gets on your clothes or belongings, it may not come off.
❏ Use ink bottles with the correct part code for this printer.
❏ Do not shake too vigorously or squeeze the ink bottles.
❏ For optimum print results do not maintain low ink levels for extended periods of time.
❏ To obtain optimum printing results, refill the ink tank to the upper line at least once every year.
❏ To ensure you receive premium print quality and to help protect your print head, a variable ink safety reserve
remains in the ink tank when your printer indicates to refill ink. The yields quoted for you do not include this
reserve.

Ink consumption
❏ To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from the ink tank during maintenance
operations such as print head cleaning. Ink may also be consumed when you turn the printer on.
❏ The ink in the ink bottle 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. This one-off process consumes a
quantity of ink and therefore this bottle may print fewer pages compared to subsequent ink bottles.
❏ 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.

Refilling the Ink Tank


1. Select Maintenance on the printer's control panel.

2. Select Fill Ink.

3. Read all of the usage precautions for filling ink on the screen, and then proceed to the next screen.

4. Open the ink tank cover.

166
Solving Problems > It is Time to Refill the Ink > Refilling the Ink Tank

5. Open the ink tank cap.

6. While holding the ink bottle upright, turn the cap slowly to remove it.

c Important:
❏ Epson recommends the use of genuine Epson ink bottles.
❏ Be careful not to spill any ink.

7. Check the upper line (a) in the ink tank.

167
Solving Problems > It is Time to Refill the Ink > Refilling the Ink Tank

8. Align the top of the ink bottle with the filling port, and then insert it straight into the port to fill ink until it
stops automatically at the upper line.
When you insert the ink bottle into the filling port for the correct color, ink starts pouring and the flow stops
automatically when the ink reaches the upper line.
If the ink does not start flowing into the tank, remove the ink bottle and reinsert it. However, do not remove
and reinsert the ink bottle when the ink has reached the upper line; otherwise ink may leak.

9. When you have finished refilling the ink, remove the ink bottle, and then close the ink tank cap securely.

c Important:
Do not leave the ink bottle inserted; otherwise the bottle may be damaged or ink may leak.

168
Solving Problems > It is Time to Replace the Maintenance Box > Maintenance Box Handling Precautions

Note:
If any ink remains in the ink bottle, tighten the cap and store the bottle upright for later use.

10. Close the ink tank cover firmly.

11. Follow the on-screen instructions to set the ink level.

c Important:
Even if you do not refill ink up to the upper line on the ink tank, you can continue using the printer. To keep your
printer operating at its best, however, fill ink tank up to the upper line and reset the ink level immediately.

It is Time to Replace the Maintenance Box

Maintenance Box Handling Precautions


Read the following instructions before replacing the maintenance box.
❏ Do not touch the green chip on the side of the maintenance box. Doing so may prevent normal operation and
printing.
❏ Do not replace the maintenance box during printing; otherwise, ink may leak.
❏ Do not remove the maintenance box or open its cover except when replacing the maintenance box; otherwise
ink may leak.

169
Solving Problems > It is Time to Replace the Maintenance Box > Replacing a Maintenance Box

❏ Do not reuse a maintenance box which has been removed and left detached for a long period. Ink inside the box
will have solidified and no more ink can be absorbed.
❏ Do not tilt the used maintenance box until after it is sealed in the plastic bag; otherwise ink may leak.
❏ Do not store the maintenance box in high or freezing temperatures.
❏ Keep the maintenance box out of direct sunlight.
❏ Do not drop the maintenance box or subject it to strong shocks.
❏ Do not touch the openings in the maintenance box as you may get smeared with ink.

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 often 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.
When a message is displayed prompting you to replace the maintenance box, refer to the animations displayed on
the control panel. The need for replacement of the box does not mean that your printer has ceased to operate in
accordance with its specifications. The Epson warranty does not cover the cost of this replacement. It is a user-
serviceable part.

Note:
❏ When the maintenance box is full, you cannot print and clean the print head until it is replaced to avoid ink leakage.
However, you can perform operations that do not use ink such as scanning.

Original Size Auto Detection Option:


The ADF and the scanner glass are equipped with sensors that automatically detect the size of the
paper. However, due to the characteristics of the sensors, similar sizes cannot be identified, and K size
paper, which is mainly used in China, cannot be recognized correctly in the printer's initial state.
Select K Size Priority if you often use K size paper. The original size will be recognized as K size
instead of the approximate size. Depending on the size and orientation of the paper, it may be
detected as another approximate size. Also, K size may not be automatically detected depending on
the function you are using. For example, when scanning and saving to a computer using an
application, whether or not K size can be automatically detected depends on the behavior of the
application software.

Connecting the Printer to the Network


You can connect the printer to the network in several ways.
❏ Connect by using advanced settings on the control panel.
❏ Connect by using the installer on the website or on the software disc.

This section explains the procedure to connect the printer to the network using the printer's control panel.

Before Making Network Connection


To connect to the network, check the connection method and setting information for connection in advance.

Gathering Information on the Connection Setting


Prepare the necessary setting information to connect. Check the following information in advance.

information
❏ Subnet mask When you assign the IP address statically, all values are required.
❏ Default gateway When you assign the IP address dynamically using the DHCP function,
this information is not required because it is set automatically.

Wi-Fi connection ❏ SSID These are the SSID (network name) and the password of the access
information point that the printer connects to.
❏ Password
If MAC address filtering has been set, register the MAC address of the
printer in advance to register the printer.
See the following for the supported standards.
“Wi-Fi Specifications” on page 240

DNS server information ❏ IP address for These are required when specifying DNS servers. The secondary DNS
primary DNS is set when the system has a redundant configuration and there is a
secondary DNS server.
❏ IP address for
secondary DNS If you are in a small organization and do not set the DNS server, set
the IP address of the router.

Proxy server ❏ Proxy server name Set this when your network environment uses the proxy server to
information access the internet from the intranet, and you use the function that
the printer directly accesses to the internet.
For the following functions, the printer directly connects to the
internet .

information release release the port that is blocked by a firewall, if necessary.
See the following for the port number used by the printer.
“Using Port for the Printer” on page 239

IP Address Assignment
These are the following types of IP address assignment.

Static IP address:
Assign the predetermined IP address to the printer (host) manually.
The information to connect to the network (subnet mask, default gateway, DNS server and so on) need to be set
manually.
The IP address does not change even when the device is turned off, so this is useful when you want to manage
devices with an environment where you cannot change the IP address or you want to manage devices using the IP
address. We recommend settings to the printer, server, etc. that many computers access. Also, when using security
features such as IPsec / IP filtering, assign a fixed IP address so that the IP address does not change.

Automatic assignment by using DHCP function (dynamic IP address):


Assign the IP address automatically to the printer (host) by using the DHCP function of the DHCP server or
router.
The information to connect to the network (subnet mask, default gateway, DNS server and so on) is set
automatically, so you can easily connect the device to the network.
If the device or the router is turned off, or depending on the DHCP server settings, IP address may change when
re-connecting.
We recommend managing devices other than the IP address and communicating with protocols that can follow
the IP address.
Note:
When you use the IP address reservation function of the DHCP, you can assign the same IP address to the devices at any
time.

DNS Server and Proxy Server


The DNS server has a host name, domain name of the email address, etc. in association with the IP address
information.
Communication is impossible if the other party is described by host name, domain name, etc. when the computer
or the printer performs IP communication.
Queries the DNS server for that information and gets the IP address of the other party. This process is called name
resolution.
Therefore, the devices such as computers and printers can communicate using the IP address.
Name resolution is necessary for the printer to communicate using the email function or Internet connection
function.
When you use those functions, make the DNS server settings.

250
Administrator Information > Connecting the Printer to the Network > Connecting to the Network from the …

When you assign the printer's IP address by using the DHCP function of the DHCP server or router, it is
automatically set.
The proxy server is placed at the gateway between the network and the Internet, and it communicates to the
computer, printer, and Internet (opposite server) on behalf of each of them. The opposite server communicates
only to the proxy server. Therefore, printer information such as the IP address and port number cannot be read
and increased security is expected.
When you connect to the Internet via a proxy server, configure the proxy server on the printer.

Connecting to the Network from the Control Panel

Setting a Shared Network Folder


Set a shared network folder to save the scanned image.
When saving a file to the folder, the printer logs on as the user of the computer on which the folder was created.
Also, make sure you setup MS Network when creating the shared network folder.

Creating the Shared Folder

Before Creating the Shared Folder


Before creating the shared folder, check the following.
❏ The printer is connected to the network where it can access the computer where the shared folder will be
created.
❏ A multi-byte character is not included in the name of the computer where the shared folder will be created.

263
Administrator Information > Settings to Use the Printer > Setting a Shared Network Folder

c Important:
When a multi-byte character is included in the computer name, saving the file to the shared folder may fail.
In that case, change to the computer that does not include the Multi-byte character in the name or change the
computer name.
When changing the computer name, make sure to confirm with the administrator in advance because it may affect
some settings, such as computer management, resource access, etc.

Checking the Network Profile


On the computer where the shared folder will be created, check whether folder sharing is available.

1. Log in to the computer where the shared folder will be created by the administrator authority user account.

2. Select Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center.

3. Click Change advanced sharing settings, and then click for the profile with (current profile) in the
displayed network profiles.

4. Check whether Turn on file and printer sharing is selected on File and Printer Sharing.

& “Location Where the Shared Folder is Created and an Example of the Security” on page 264

Location Where the Shared Folder is Created and an Example of the Security
Depending on the location where the shared folder is created, security and convenience vary.
To operate the shared folder from the printers or other computers, the following reading and changing permissions
for the folder are required.
❏ Sharing tab > Advanced Sharing > Permissions
It controls the network access permission of the shared folder.
❏ Access permission of Security tab
It controls permission of the network access and local access of the shared folder.

When you set Everyone to the shared folder that is created on the desktop, as an example of creating a shared
folder, all users who can access the computer will be permitted access.
However, the user who does not have authority cannot access them because the desktop (folder) is under the
control of the user folder, and then the security settings of the user folder are handed down to it. The user who is
permitted access on the Security tab (user logged in and administrator in this case) can operate the folder.
See below to create the proper location.
This example is when creating the "scan_folder" folder.

Security Settings and Prevention of Danger


When a printer is connected to a network, you can access it from a remote location. In addition, many people can
share the printer, which is helpful in improving operational efficiency and convenience. However, risks such as
illegal access, illegal use, and tampering with data are increased. If you use the printer in an environment where
you can access the Internet, the risks are even higher.
For printers that do not have access protection from the outside, it will be possible to read the print job logs that
are stored in the printer from the Internet.

304
Administrator Information > Advanced Security Settings > Security Settings and Prevention of Danger

In order to avoid this risk, Epson printers have a variety of security technologies.

Using a Digital Certificate

About Digital Certification


❏ CA-signed Certificate
This is a certificate signed by the CA (Certificate Authority.) You can obtain it to apply to the Certificate
Authority. This certificate certifies the existence of the printer is and used for SSL/TLS communication so that
you can ensure the safety of data communication.
When it is used for SSL/TLS communication, it is used as a server certificate.
When it is set to IPsec/IP Filtering or IEEE802.1x communication, it is used as a client certificate.
❏ CA Certificate
This is a certificate that is in chain of the CA-signed Certificate, also called the intermediate CA certificate. It is
used by the web browser to validate the path of the printer's certificate when accessing the server of the other
party or Web Config.
For the CA Certificate, set when to validate the path of server certificate accessing from the printer. For the
printer, set to certify the path of the CA-signed Certificate for SSL/TLS connection.
You can obtain the CA certificate of the printer from the Certification Authority where the CA certificate is
issued.
Also, you can obtain the CA certificate used to validate the server of the other party from the Certification
Authority that issued the CA-signed Certificate of the other server.
❏ Self-signed Certificate
This is a certificate that the printer signs and issues itself. It is also called the root certificate. Because the issuer
certifies itself, it is not reliable and cannot prevent impersonation.
Use it when making the security setting and performing simple SSL/TLS communication without the CA-
signed Certificate.
If you use this certificate for an SSL/TLS communication, a security alert may be displayed on a web browser
because the certificate is not registered on a web browser. You can use the Self-signed Certificate only for an
SSL/TLS communication.
