Maintaining Your Printer
Maintaining Your Printer
Follow the instructions in this chapter for checking and cleaning the print head nozzles
and replacing ink cartridges. To align the print head, if necessary, see your online
User’s Guide.
Caution: To keep your printer looking like new, don’t place anything on top of the cover
or use it as a writing surface. If you need to clean the cover, use only a soft, non-
abrasive microfiber-type cloth.
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 letter- or A4-size paper in the sheet feeder.
2. Press
if necessary and select
F
Setup
on the printer’s control panel.
3. Use the arrow buttons to select
Maintenance
and press
OK
, then select
Nozzle
Check
and press
OK
.
4. Press
x
to print the nozzle check pattern.
5. Check the pattern that prints to see if there are gaps in the lines.
6. If there are no gaps, select
Finish Nozzle Check
and press
OK
.
If there are gaps or the pattern is faint, select
Head Cleaning
and press
OK
. Then
press
x
to clean the print head (see page 17).

Cleaning the Print Head
If print quality has declined and the nozzle check pattern indicates clogged nozzles, you
can clean the print head. Print head cleaning uses ink, so clean it only if necessary.
Note: You cannot clean the print head if an ink cartridge is expended, and may not be
able to clean it when a cartridge is low. You must replace the cartridge first
(see
page 19).
1. Load letter- or A4-size paper in the sheet feeder.
2. Press
if necessary and select
F
Setup
.
3. Use the arrow buttons to select
Maintenance
and press
OK
, then select
Head
Cleaning
and press
OK
.
4. Press
x
to start cleaning.
Cleaning takes several minutes. When it’s finished, you see a message on the LCD
screen.
Caution: Never turn off the printer during head cleaning or you may damage it.
5. Select
Nozzle Check
and press
OK
, then press
x
to verify that the print head is clean.
6. If there are still gaps or lines, or the test patterns are faint, run another cleaning cycle
and check the nozzles again.
Note: If you don’t see any improvement after cleaning the print head four times, turn
off the product 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 25.
If you do not use your EPSON product often, it is a good idea to print a few pages at
least once a month to maintain good print quality.
Checking Ink Levels
If an ink cartridge is expended, you see a message on your
printer’s LCD screen:
Note: Printing stops when an ink cartridge is expended. If a
color cartridge is expended, you may be able to continue
printing temporarily with black ink; see the online
User’s Guide for more information. If the black cartridge is
expended, you must replace it to continue printing.
You can check ink cartridge levels by pressing
if necessary and selecting
F
Setup
, then
pressing
OK
. The ink levels displayed are approximate.

Purchasing EPSON Ink Cartridges
A window may also appear on your computer screen when you try to print when ink is
low. This window can optionally display ink offers and other updates from Epson.
Note: To disable checking for ink offers or updates from Epson, see the instructions in
your online User’s Guide.
Purchasing EPSON Ink Cartridges
You can purchase genuine EPSON ink and paper from EPSON Supplies Central at
www.epson.com/ink3 (U.S. sales) or www.epson.ca (Canadian sales). You can also
purchase supplies from an EPSON authorized reseller. To find the nearest one, call
800-GO-EPSON (800-463-7766).
Use the following list when you order or purchase new 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 printer
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 cartridges included with the
printer are designed for printer set up and not for resale. After some ink is used for
priming, the rest is available for printing.
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.

immediately after removing the old ones.

immediately with water. If it gets in your mouth, spit it
out and see a doctor right away.
