Printer Advisories and Warnings

Read and follow these instructions to avoid damaging the printer or your property. Make sure you keep this
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

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.
❏ When installing the printer on the floor, install the optional printer stand. The printer may fall without the

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.
❏ Do not use short-grain paper with a width of less than 105 mm.
❏ 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.

Sending Many Pages of a Monochrome Document (Direct Send)

Therefore, sending a lot of pages may cause the printer to run out of memory and stop sending the fax. You can
avoid this by enabling the Direct Send feature, however, it takes longer to send the fax because the printer
performs scanning and sending simultaneously. You can use this feature when there is only one recipient.

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.

It is Time to Replace Ink Supply Units

Ink Supply Unit Handling Precautions

Storing precautions for ink
❏ Keep the ink supply units out of direct sunlight.
❏ Do not store the ink supply units in high or freezing temperatures.
❏ Epson recommends using the ink supply unit before the date printed on the package.
❏ For best results, store ink supply unit packages with their bottom down.
❏ After bringing an ink supply unit inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room temperature for at
least 12 hours before using it.
❏ Do not drop or knock the ink supply unit against hard objects; otherwise, the ink may leak.

263
Solving Problems > It is Time to Replace Ink Supply Units > Ink Supply Unit Handling Precautions

Handling precautions for replacing ink

❏ Do not touch the sections shown in the illustration. Doing so may prevent normal operation and printing.

❏ Install all ink supply units; otherwise you cannot print.

❏ Do not turn off the printer during ink charging. If the ink charging is incomplete, you may not be able to print.
❏ Do not leave the printer with the ink supply units removed; otherwise, ink remaining in the print head nozzles
may dry out and you may not be able to print.
❏ If you need to remove an ink supply unit temporarily, make sure you protect the ink supply area from dirt and
dust. Store the ink supply unit in the same environment as the printer. Because the ink supply port is equipped
with a valve designed to contain the release of excess ink, there is no need to supply your own covers or plugs.
❏ Removed ink supply units may have ink around the ink supply port, so be careful not to get any ink on the
surrounding area when removing the ink supply units.
❏ This printer uses ink supply units equipped with a green chip that monitors information such as the amount of
remaining ink for each ink supply unit. This means that even if the ink supply unit is removed from the printer
before it is expended, you can still use the ink supply unit after reinserting it back into the printer.
❏ To ensure you receive premium print quality and to help protect your print head, a variable ink safety reserve
remains in the ink supply unit when your printer indicates to replace the ink supply unit. The yields quoted for
you do not include this reserve.
❏ Do not disassemble or remodel the ink supply unit, otherwise you may not be able to print normally.
❏ You cannot use the ink supply units that came with the printer for the replacement.
❏ If the ink supply unit has changed shape due to being dropped and so on, fix the shape before inserting it in the
printer; otherwise, it may not be set correctly.

Consumption of ink
❏ To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from all ink supply units during
maintenance operations such as print head cleaning. Ink may also be consumed when you turn on the printer.
❏ 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.
❏ The ink in the ink supply units 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 these ink supply units may print fewer pages compared to subsequent
ink supply units.
❏ 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.
❏ For best results, use up ink supply unit within two years of installation.

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 remove the film on the top of the box; otherwise ink may leak.
❏ Do not tilt the used maintenance box until after it is sealed in the plastic bag; otherwise ink may leak.
❏ Keep the maintenance box out of direct sunlight.
❏ Do not replace the maintenance box during printing; otherwise, ink may leak.
❏ 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.

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.

List of Symbol Sets

Your printer can access a variety of symbol sets. Many of these symbol sets differ only in the international
characters specific to each language.
When you are considering which font to use, you should also consider which symbol set to combine with the font.
Note:
Since most software handles fonts and symbols automatically, you will probably never need to adjust the printer's settings.
However, if you are writing your own printer control programs, or if you are using older software that cannot control fonts,
refer to the following sections for symbol set details.

Epson BarCode Fonts (Windows Only)

Epson BarCode Fonts let you easily create and print many types of bar codes.
Normally, bar code creation is a laborious process requiring you to specify various command codes, such as Start
bar, Stop bar and OCR-B, in addition to the bar code characters themselves. However, Epson BarCode Fonts are
designed to add such codes automatically, allowing you to easily print bar codes that conform to a variety of bar
code standards.

Printing with Epson BarCode Fonts

Follow the steps below to create and print bar codes using Epson BarCode Fonts. The application featured in these
instructions is Microsoft WordPad in Windows 10. The actual procedure may differ slightly when printing from
other applications.

1. Open a document in your application and enter the characters you want to convert into a bar code.

399
Product Information > Font Specifications > Epson BarCode Fonts (Windows Only)

2. Select the characters, then select the Epson BarCode font you want to use, and the font size.

Note:
You cannot use font sizes larger than 96 points when printing bar codes.

3. The characters you selected appear as bar code characters similar to those shown below.

4. Select Print from the File menu, select your Epson printer, click Preferences, and then make the printer driver
settings.

5. Click Print to print the bar code.

Note:
If there is an error in the bar code character string, such as inappropriate data, the bar code will be printed as it appears
on the screen, but it cannot be read by a bar code reader.

Product Information > Font Specifications > Epson BarCode Fonts (Windows Only)

Notes on inputting and formatting bar codes

Please note the following when inputting and formatting bar code characters:
❏ Do not apply shading or special character formatting, such as bold, italic, or underline.
❏ Print bar codes in black and white only.
❏ When rotating characters, only specify rotation angles of 90˚, 180˚, and 270˚.
❏ Turn off all automatic character and word spacing settings in your application.
❏ Do not use features in your application that enlarge or reduce the size of characters in only the vertical or
horizontal direction.
❏ Turn off your application’s auto-correct features for spelling, grammar, spacing, etc.
❏ To more easily distinguish bar codes from other text in your document, set your application to show text
symbols, such as paragraph marks, tabs, etc.
❏ Because special characters such as Start bar and Stop bar are added when an Epson BarCode Font is selected,
the resulting bar code may have more characters than were originally input.
❏ For best results, use only the font sizes recommended in “Epson BarCode Font Specifications” for the Epson
BarCode Font you are using. Bar codes in other sizes may not be readable with all bar code readers.
❏ Select Grayscale in the Print Settings and Standard or High in the Quality.

Note:
Depending on the print density, or on the quality or color of the paper, bar codes may not be readable with all bar code
readers. Print a sample and make sure the bar code can be read before printing large quantities.

❏ The height of the bar code is automatically adjusted to 15% or more of its total length, in conformance to the
Code39 standard. For this reason, it is important to keep at least one space between the bar code and the
surrounding text to prevent overlapping.
❏ Spaces in Code39 bar codes should be input as “_” underbars.
❏ When printing two or more bar codes on one line, separate the bar codes with a tab, or select a font other than a
BarCode Font and input the space. If a space is input while a Code39 font is selected, the bar code will not be
correct.

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.

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.

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 383

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.

413
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

Connect the printer to the network by using the printer's control panel.

Setting a Shared Network Folder

Set a shared network folder to save the scanned image and the results of faxing.
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.

428
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 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.
If already selected, click Cancel and close the window.
When you change the settings, click Save Changes and close the window.

& “Location Where the Shared Folder is Created and an Example of the Security” on page 429

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.

494
Administrator Information > Advanced Security Settings > Security Settings and Prevention of Danger

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.
In order to avoid this risk, Epson printers have a variety of security technologies.
Set the printer as necessary according to the environmental conditions that have been built with the customer's
environment information.

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.
