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, atten 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
conrm
the paper
specications.
Fan and align the edges of the envelopes before loading. When the stacked envelopes are pued up with air,
press them down to atten them before loading.

Preventing nozzle clogging
Always use the power button when turning the printer on and o.
Check that the power light is
o
before you disconnect the power cord.
e 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 le as it is, it will dry out causing nozzles (ink outlets) to clog.
In these cases, turn the printer on and
o
again as soon as possible to cap the print head.

Ink Bottle Handling Precautions
Read the following instructions before relling ink.
Storing precautions for ink
Keep the ink bottles out of direct sunlight.
Do not store the ink bottles in high or freezing temperatures.
Aer 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
ll
the ink tank.
e
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.

Handling precautions for relling ink
e
ink for this printer must be handled carefully. Ink may splatter when the ink tank is being
lled
or
relled
with ink. If ink gets on your clothes or belongings, it may not come o.
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, rell 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 rell ink. e 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.
e 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. is one-o 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.
Relling the Ink Tank
1.
Select Maintenance on the printer's control panel.
2.
Select Fill Ink.
3.
Read all of the usage precautions for lling ink on the screen, and then proceed to the next screen.

port, and then insert it straight into the port to
ll
ink until it
stops automatically at the upper line.
When you insert the ink bottle into the lling port for the correct color, ink starts pouring and the ow stops
automatically when the ink reaches the upper line.
If the ink does not start owing 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.

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.

It is Time to Replace the Maintenance Box
>
Maintenance Box Handling Precautions
167
background
Do not reuse a maintenance box which has been removed and le detached for a long period. Ink inside the box
will have
solidied
and no more ink can be absorbed.
Do not tilt the used maintenance box until aer 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
oen
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. e need for replacement of the box does not mean that your printer has ceased to operate in
accordance with its specications. e 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.

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 soware disc.
is
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.
Divisions Items Note
Device connection
method
Ethernet
Wi-Fi
Decide how to connect the printer to the network.
For Wired LAN, connects to the LAN switch.
For Wi-Fi, connects to the network (SSID) of the access point.
LAN connection
information
IP address
Subnet mask
Default gateway
Decide the IP address to assign to the printer.
When you assign the IP address statically, all values are required.
When you assign the IP address dynamically using the DHCP function,
this information is not required because it is set automatically.
Wi-Fi connection
information
SSID
Password
These are the SSID (network name) and the password of the access
point that the printer connects to.
If MAC address ltering 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 Specications” on page 238
DNS server information IP address for
primary DNS
IP address for
secondary DNS
These are required when specifying DNS servers. The secondary DNS
is set when the system has a redundant conguration and there is a
secondary DNS server.
If you are in a small organization and do not set the DNS server, set
the IP address of the router.
Proxy server
information
Proxy server name Set this when your network environment uses the proxy server to
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 .

“Using Port for the Printer” on page 236
IP Address Assignment
ese are the following types of IP address assignment.
Static IP address:
Assign the predetermined IP address to the printer (host) manually.
e
information to connect to the network (subnet mask, default gateway, DNS server and so on) need to be set
manually.
e IP address does not change even when the device is turned o, 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 ltering, assign a xed 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.
e 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
o,
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
e 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. is process is called name
resolution.
erefore, 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.

background
When you assign the printer's IP address by using the DHCP function of the DHCP server or router, it is
automatically set.
e 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.
e
opposite server communicates
only to the proxy server.
erefore,
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, congure 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.

Settings to Use the Printer
Using the Print Functions
Enable to use the print function through the network.
To use the printer on the network, you need to set the port for network connection on the computer as well as the
printers network connection.
Printer Connection Types
e following two methods are available for the printer's network connection.
Peer to peer connection (direct printing)
Server / client connection (printer sharing using the Windows server)
Peer to Peer Connection Settings
is is the connection to connect the printer on the network and the computer directly. Only a network-capable
model can be connected.
Connection method:
Connect the printer to the network directly via hub or access point.
Printer driver:
Install the printer driver on each client computer.
When using EpsonNet SetupManager, you can provide the driver's package that includes the printer settings.

Features:
e
print job starts immediately because the print job is sent to the printer directly.
You can print as long as the printer runs.
Server / Client Connection Settings
is is the connection that the server computer shares with the printer. To prohibit the connection without going
through the server computer, you can enhance the security.
When using USB, the printer without the network function can be also shared.
Connection method:
Connect the printer to the network via LAN switch or access point.
You can also connect the printer to the server directly by USB cable.
Printer driver:
Install the printer driver on the Windows server depending on the OS of the client computers.
By accessing the Windows server and linking the printer, the printer driver is installed on the client computer and
can be used.
Features:
Manage the printer and the printer driver in batch.
Depending on the server spec, it may take time to start the print job because all print jobs go through the print
server.
You cannot print when the Windows server is turned o.
Print Settings for Peer to Peer Connection
For peer to peer connection (direct printing), a printer and a client computer have a one-to-one relationship.
e printer driver must be installed on each client computer.
Print Settings for Server / Client Connection
Enable to print from the printer that is connected as the server / client connection.
For the server / client connection, set up the print server rst, and then share the printer on the network.
When using the USB cable to connect to the server, also set the print server
rst,
and then share the printer on the
network.
Setting Up the Network Ports
Create the print queue for network printing on the print server by using standard TCP/IP, and then set the network
port.
is example is when using Windows 2012 R2.

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. e user who is
permitted access on the Security tab (user logged in and administrator in this case) can operate the folder.

Advanced Security Settings
is section explains advanced security features.
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 eciency 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.
Administrator Information

Security Settings and Prevention of Danger
303
background
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.
Name Feature type What to set What to prevent
Control of protocol Controls the protocols and
services to be used for
communication between
printers and computers, and
it enables and disables
features.
A protocol or service that is
applied to features allowed or
prohibited separately.
Reducing security risks that
may occur through
unintended use by
preventing users from using
unnecessary functions.
SSL/TLS
communications
The communication content
is encrypted with SSL/TLS
communications when
accessing to the Epson server
on the Internet from the
printer, such as
communicating to the
computer via web browser,
using Epson Connect, and
updating rmware.
Obtain a CA-signed
certicate,
and then import it
to the printer.
Clearing an identication of
the printer by the CA-signed
certication
prevents
impersonation and
unauthorized access. In
addition, communication
contents of SSL/TLS are
protected, and it prevents the
leakage of contents for
printing data and setup
information.
IPsec/IP ltering You can set to allow severing
and cutting
o
of data that is
from a certain client or is a
particular type. Since IPsec
protects the data by IP packet
unit (encryption and
authentication), you can
safely communicate
unsecured protocol.
Create a basic policy and
individual policy to set the
client or type of data that can
access the printer.
Protect unauthorized access,
and tampering and
interception of
communication data to the
printer.
IEEE802.1X Only allows authenticated
users to connect to the
network. Allows only a
permitted user to use the
printer.
Authentication setting to the

Using a Digital Certicate
About Digital
Certication
CA-signed
Certicate
is
is a
certicate
signed by the CA
(Certicate
Authority.) You can obtain it to apply to the
Certicate
Authority. is certicate certies 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 certicate.
When it is set to IPsec/IP Filtering or IEEE802.1x communication, it is used as a client certicate.
CA Certicate
is
is a
certicate
that is in chain of the CA-signed
Certicate
, also called the intermediate CA
certicate.
It is
used by the web browser to validate the path of the printer's certicate when accessing the server of the other
party or Web
Cong.
For the CA
Certicate,
set when to validate the path of server
certicate
accessing from the printer. For the
printer, set to certify the path of the CA-signed
Certicate
for SSL/TLS connection.
You can obt a i n the C A
certicate
of the printer from the
Certication
Authority where the CA
certicate
is
issued.
Also, you can obtain the CA certicate used to validate the server of the other party from the Certication
Authority that issued the CA-signed
Certicate
of the other server.
Self-signed Certicate
is is a certicate that the printer signs and issues itself. It is also called the root certicate. Because the issuer
certies 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 Certicate.
If you use this
certicate
for an SSL/TLS communication, a security alert may be displayed on a web browser
because the certicate is not registered on a web browser. You can use the Self-signed Certicate only for an
SSL/TLS communication.
