Network Security Recommendations
To help deter unauthorized access to your product over a network, you should protect your network
environment using appropriate security measures.
Security measures such as these can help deter threats such as loss of user data, use of telephone and
fax lines, and other intrusions:
• Enable security on your wireless LAN
Enable the appropriate security on the wireless LAN you plan to use with your product. Network
security such as a network password can deter interception of traffic over the wireless LAN. Your
router may already have a default password enabled by your Internet service provider (ISP). See your
ISP and router documentation for instructions on how to change the default password and better
secure your network.
• Connect your product only to a network protected by a firewall
Connecting your product directly to the Internet may leave it vulnerable to security threats. Instead,
connect it to a router or other network connection protected by a firewall. Your router may already
have a firewall set up by your Internet service provider; check with your ISP for confirmation. For best
results, set up and use a private IP address for your network connection.
• Change the default administrator password on your product
If your product has the option to set an administrator password, change the default administrator
password to deter access by unauthorized users to personal data stored on your product, such as IDs,
passwords, and contact lists.
Parent topic: Wi-Fi or Wired Networking

Note: The product normally uses W52 (36ch) as the channel when connecting to Wi-Fi Direct (Simple
AP). Since the channel for wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) connection is selected automatically, the channel used
may differ when used at the same time as a Wi-Fi Direct connection. Sending data to the printer may be
delayed if the channels are different. If it does not interfere with use, connect to the SSID in the 2.4 GHz
band. In the 2.4 GHz frequency band, the channels used will match.
When setting the wireless LAN to 5 GHz, we recommend disabling Wi-Fi Direct.

Replacing Ink Cartridges, Maintenance Boxes, and Cassette
Rollers
When ink is expended, or the maintenance box and cassette rollers are at the end of their service life,
you need to replace them. The maintenance box stores ink that gets flushed from the system during print
head cleaning.
Note: Please dispose of your used Epson branded ink cartridges and maintenance boxes responsibly
and in accordance with local requirements. If you would like to return your used ink cartridges and
maintenance boxes to Epson for proper disposal, please go to epson.com/recycle for more information.

Parent topic: Replacing Ink Cartridges, Maintenance Boxes, and Cassette Rollers
Ink Safety Precautions
• Keep ink cartridges and maintenance box out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.
• Keep the ink cartridges and maintenance box out of direct sunlight.
• Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place; do not store the ink cartridges or maintenance box in high or
freezing temperatures.
• Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges; there may be ink remaining around the ink supply
port. If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them
immediately with water. If you experience discomfort or vision problems after flushing your eyes, see a
doctor immediately. If ink gets in your mouth, see a doctor immediately.
• Do not dismantle an ink cartridge. This could damage the print head.
• Do not disassemble or modify the ink cartridge or maintenance box; otherwise ink may get into your
eyes or on your skin or you may not be able to print normally.
• Do not shake cartridges too vigorously; this can cause them to leak.
• Do not drop or knock ink cartridges or the maintenance box against hard objects; this can cause
leakage.
• Do not remove or tear the label on the cartridge; this can cause leakage.
• Use an ink cartridge before the date printed on its package or within six months of opening the
package, whichever is earlier.
• 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.
• Do not open the ink cartridge package until you are ready to install it in the printer. The cartridge is
vacuum packed to maintain its reliability. Leaving a cartridge unpacked for a long time before using it
may prevent normal operation.
• Do not break the hooks on the side of the cartridge when removing it from the packaging.
• Do not shake cartridges after opening their packages; this can cause them to leak.
• Do not remove the transparent seal from the bottom of the cartridge. This may cause the cartridge to
become unusable.
• Do not touch the green IC chip on the side of the cartridge. This may prevent normal operation.
• Make sure to install all ink cartridges. The printer only works when all ink cartridges are properly
installed.
149
• Do not turn off the product during ink charging. If ink charging is incomplete, you may not be able to
print.
• 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 product. 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 cartridge ink supply port or surrounding area.
• Install a new ink cartridge immediately after removing an expended one. Leaving cartridges
uninstalled can dry out the print head and may prevent the product from printing.
• Do not turn off the printer during cartridge replacement. Otherwise, ink remaining in the print head
nozzles will dry out and you may not be able to print.
• Do not put your hands inside the product or touch any cartridges during printing.
• Removed ink cartridges may have ink around the ink supply port, so be careful not to get any ink on
the surrounding area when removing the cartridges.
• Do not remove and reinstall an ink cartridge except when necessary. Ink may get on the surrounding
area if a cartridge is repeatedly removed and reinstalled.
• Even if some ink cartridges are dented due to the vacuum packing process, the quality and quantity of
ink are guaranteed, and they can be used safely. Do not open the ink cartridge package until you are
ready to replace an old cartridge.
• The specifications and appearance of the ink cartridge may be modified for improvement without prior
notice.
Ink Consumption
• This printer uses ink cartridges equipped with a green chip that monitors information such as the
amount of remaining ink for each cartridge. This means that even if the cartridge is removed from the
printer before it is expended, you can still use the cartridge after reinserting it back into the printer.
However, when reinserting a cartridge, some ink may be consumed to guarantee printer performance.
• To ensure you receive premium print quality and to help protect your print head, a variable ink safety
reserve remains in the cartridge when your printer indicates that it is time to replace the cartridge.
Quoted ink yields do not include this reserve.
• 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.
• Do not use the cartridges that came with the printer for the replacement. The ink in the ink cartridges
supplied with your printer is partly used during initial setup. In order to produce high quality printouts,
the print head in your printer needs to be fully charged with ink. This process consumes a quantity of
ink and, therefore, these cartridges may print fewer pages compared to subsequent ink cartridges.
150
• To maintain optimum print head performance, some ink is consumed from all ink cartridges during
maintenance operations. Ink may also be consumed when you replace an ink cartridge or turn the
printer on.
• When printing in monochrome or grayscale, color inks may be used instead of black ink depending on
the paper type or print quality settings you are using. This is because a mixture of color inks is used to
create black.

Purchase Epson Ink Cartridges and Maintenance Box
You can purchase genuine Epson ink, maintenance boxes, and paper at epson.com (U.S. sales),
epson.ca (Canadian sales), or latin.epson.com (Latin American sales). You can also purchase supplies
from an Epson authorized reseller. To find the nearest one, call 800-GO-EPSON (800-463-7766) in the
U.S. or 800-807-7766 in Canada.
152
Note: Your printer is designed to work only with genuine Epson-brand ink cartridges. Other brands of ink
cartridges and ink supplies are not compatible and, even if described as compatible, may not function
properly or at all. Epson periodically provides firmware updates to address issues of security,
performance, minor bug fixes and ensure the printer functions as designed. These updates may affect
the functionality of third-party ink. Non-Epson branded or altered Epson cartridges that functioned prior
to a firmware update may not continue to function.
The included initial cartridges are designed for reliable printer setup and cannot be used as replacement
cartridges or resold. After setup, the remaining ink is available for printing. Yields are based on ISO
24711 in default mode, printing continuously. Yields vary due to print images, settings, and
temperatures. Printing infrequently or primarily with one color reduces yields. All cartridges must be
installed with ink for printing and printer maintenance. For print quality, some ink remains in replaced
cartridges.

About Digital Certification
You can configure the following digital certificates for your network using Web Config:
CA-signed Certificate
You can ensure secure communications using a CA-signed certificate for each security feature. The
certificates must be signed by and obtained from a CA (Certificate Authority).
CA Certificate
A CA certificate indicates that a third party has verified the identity of a server. You need to obtain a
CA certificate for server authentication from a CA that issues it.
Self-signed Certificate
A self-signed certificate is issued and signed by the product itself. You can use the certificate for only
SSL/TLS communication, however security is unreliable and you may see a security alert in the
browser during use.

Paper Feeding Problems
If you have problems feeding paper, try these solutions:
• If paper does not feed for printing, remove it from the rear feed slot or cassette. Reload it, then adjust
the edge guides. Make sure the paper stack is not above the arrow mark on the edge guides inside the
cassette or rear feed slot.
• Place the product on a flat surface and operate it in the recommended environmental conditions.
• Be sure to insert the paper cassette all the way into your product.
• If multiple pages feed at once, remove the paper, fan the edges to separate the sheets, and reload it.
• Do not load more than the recommended number of sheets. For plain paper, do not load paper above
the arrow mark on the edge guides.
• Make sure your paper meets the specifications for your product.
• If paper jams when you print on both sides of the paper, try loading fewer sheets.
• Run the paper guide cleaning utility to clean the paper path.
• If paper does not feed correctly after replacing the maintenance rollers, make sure you installed the
maintenance rollers correctly.
• If you installed an optional paper cassette unit, be sure to enable the cassette unit in the printing
software.
• If your product pauses during printing, make sure the front cover is closed.
• The maintenance rollers may be at the end of their service life. Check the maintenance roller status
and replace them if necessary.
• Do not use short-grain paper with a width less than .413 inches (105 mm).
• For best results, follow these guidelines:
• Use new, smooth, high-quality paper that is not curled, creased, old, too thin, or too thick.
240
• Load paper in the cassette printable side down.
• Do not load binder paper with holes in the cassette.
• Follow any special loading instructions that came with the paper.
• Use 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.

Nothing Prints
If you have sent a print job and nothing prints, try these solutions:
• Make sure your product is turned on and connected to your computer.
• Make sure any interface cables are connected securely at both ends.
• If you connected your product to a USB hub, make sure it is a first-tier hub. If it still does not print,
connect your product directly to your computer instead of the hub.
• Make sure the printer status is not offline or pending.
242
• Run a product check to see if a test page prints. If the test page prints, check to see if your product
software is installed correctly.
• Make sure your system meets the requirements for your operating system. If you are printing a high-
resolution image, you may need more than the minimum requirements. Print the image at a lower
resolution or if necessary, increase your system's memory.
• In Windows, make sure your product is selected as the default printer and the printer port setting
matches the printer connection port.
• In Windows, delete all jobs from the Windows Spooler. Click Print Queue on the Maintenance tab in
the printer settings window, and cancel any stalled print jobs.
• On a Mac, make sure the printer is added to the printer list and the printer is not paused.
• Make sure your product is selected as the printer in your printing program.
• You can try to clear the problem by updating the product software to the latest version. If the problem
persists, try uninstalling and reinstalling the printer driver.

Printing is Slow
If printing becomes slow, try these solutions:
• Make sure your system meets the requirements for your operating system. If you are printing a high-
resolution image, you may need more than the minimum requirements. If necessary, increase your
system's memory.
• If you are using Windows 7, close the Devices and Printers window before you print.
• Make sure Quiet Mode is turned off.
• Clear space on your hard drive or run a defragmentation utility to free up existing space.
• Close any programs you are not using when you print.
• If your product is connected to a USB hub, connect it directly to your computer instead.
• If printing becomes slower after printing continuously for a long time, the product may have
automatically slowed down to protect the print mechanism from overheating or becoming damaged.
Let the product rest with the power on for 30 minutes, then try printing again.
• If you are printing over a wireless network, factors such as interference, network traffic, or weak signal
strength may affect your printing speed.
Note: If you are using a 5 GHz wireless router, set the router to operate in dual band (2.4 GHz and
5 GHz) mode. If your router uses a single network name (SSID) for both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band,
give each band its own network name (SSID) instead, such as Home Network 2.4 GHz and Home
Network 5 GHz. See your router documentation or contact your internet service provider for
instructions.
• If using the PostScript printer driver, set the Print Quality setting to Fast.
244
For the fastest printing, select the following settings in your product software:
• Make sure the paper type setting matches the type of paper you loaded.
• Turn on any high speed settings in your product software.
• Select a lower print quality setting.

Blurry or Smeared Printout
If your printouts are blurry or smeared, try these solutions:
• Make sure your paper is not damp, curled, old, or loaded incorrectly in your product.
• Slide the edge guides to the edges of the paper.
• Use a support sheet with special paper, or load special paper one sheet at a time.
• Make sure your paper meets the specifications for your product.

• Do not load more than the recommended number of sheets. For plain paper, do not load above the
line indicated by the triangle symbol on the edge guide.
• Make sure the paper type setting in your product software matches the type of paper you loaded.
• Make sure you loaded the printable side of the paper correctly for your product.
250
• If you are printing on thick paper or envelopes, turn on the Thick Paper setting from the control panel
or select Thick Paper and Envelopes in the Extended Settings of the printer software. (Turning this
setting on will decrease print speed.)
• In Windows, if the paper is still smeared after selecting the Thick Paper and Envelopes setting,
select the Short Grain Paper setting in the Extended Settings of the printer software.
• Remove each sheet from the output tray as it is printed.
• Avoid handling printouts on glossy paper right after printing to allow the ink to set.
• Turn off any high speed settings in your product software.
• If you print on both sides of a sheet of paper, smudges may appear on the reverse side of heavily
saturated or dark images. If one side of a sheet will contain a lighter image or text, print that side first.
Make sure the ink has dried before reloading the paper to print on the other side. Adjust the density
and/or ink drying time settings.
• Run a nozzle check to see if any of the print head nozzles are clogged. Then clean the print head, if
necessary.
• Align the print head. If print quality does not improve, disable the bidirectional setting.
• Adjust the print quality in the product software.
• Clean the paper path.

252
• Align the print head.
• Adjust the print quality in the product software.
• You may need to increase the image resolution or print a smaller size; see your software
documentation.
Note: Images from the Internet may be low resolution and not result in a high quality printout.
• If you enlarged the image size in an image-editing program, you need to increase the image resolution
setting to retain a high image quality. Increase the image resolution by the same amount you increase
the image size. For example, if the image resolution is 300 dpi (dots per inch) and you will double the
image size for printing, change the resolution setting to 600 dpi.
Note: Higher resolution settings result in larger file sizes, which take longer to process and print.
Consider the limitations of your computer system when selecting a resolution, and select the lowest
possible resolution that produces acceptable quality to keep file sizes manageable.

253
• Run a nozzle check to see if any of the print head nozzles are clogged. Then clean the print head, if
necessary.
• The ink cartridges may be old or low on ink, and you may need to replace them.
• After you print, the colors in your printout need time to set as the ink dries. During this time, the colors
may look different than you expect. To speed up drying time, do not stack your printouts on top of each
other.
• Your printed colors can never exactly match your on-screen colors. However, you can use a color
management system to get as close as possible. Try using the color management options in your
printer software.
• Select Custom as the Color Correction setting on the More Options tab of the printer software, then
click Advanced. Try changing the Scene Correction setting to something other than Automatic. If
changing that setting does not work, change the Color Management setting to any color correction
method other than PhotoEnhance.
• If you are using the Windows PostScript printer software, try adjusting the Color Mode setting on the
Advanced tab of the printer software.
• For best results, use genuine Epson paper.

Ink Cartridge Specifications
Note: Your printer is designed to work only with genuine Epson-brand ink cartridges. Other brands of ink
cartridges and ink supplies are not compatible and, even if described as compatible, may not function
properly or at all. Epson periodically provides firmware updates to address issues of security,
performance, minor bug fixes and ensure the printer functions as designed. These updates may affect
the functionality of third-party ink. Non-Epson branded or altered Epson cartridges that functioned prior
to a firmware update may not continue to function.
The included initial cartridges are designed for reliable printer setup and cannot be used as replacement
cartridges or resold. After setup, the remaining ink is available for printing. Yields are based on ISO
24711 in default mode, printing continuously. Yields vary due to print images, settings, and
temperatures. Printing infrequently or primarily with one color reduces yields. All cartridges must be
installed with ink for printing and printer maintenance. For print quality, some ink remains in replaced
cartridges.

LCD Screen Safety Instructions
Parent topic: Notices
General Printer Safety Instructions
• Be sure to follow all warnings and instructions marked on the printer.
• Use only the type of power source indicated on the printer's label.
• Use only the power cord that comes with the printer. Use of another cord may cause fires or shock. Do
not use the cord with any other equipment.
• Make sure the AC power cord meets the relevant local safety standard.
• Place the printer near a wall outlet where the plug can be easily unplugged.
• Avoid plugging the printer into an outlet on the same circuit as a photo copier or air control system that
regularly switches on and off, or on an outlet controlled by a wall switch or timer.
• Do not let the power cord become damaged or frayed.
276
• If you use an extension cord with the printer, make sure the total ampere rating of the devices plugged
into the extension cord does not exceed the cord's ampere rating. Also, make sure the total ampere
rating of all devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet's ampere rating.
• Always turn off the printer using the power button, and wait until the power light stops flashing before
unplugging the printer or cutting off power to the electrical outlet.
• Place the printer on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond its base in all directions. It will not
operate properly if it is tilted or at an angle.
• Keep your product at least 8.7 inches (22 cm) away from cardiac pacemakers to prevent your
product's radio waves from affecting the operation of the pacemaker.
• Leave enough space in front of the printer for the paper to be fully ejected.
• Avoid locations that are subject to rapid changes in heat or humidity, shocks or vibrations, or dust.
• Do not place the printer near a radiator or heating vent or in direct sunlight.
• Leave enough room around the printer for sufficient ventilation. Do not block or cover openings in the
case or insert objects through the slots.
• 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.
• Keep the printer away from potential sources of electromagnetic interference, such as loudspeakers or
the base units of cordless telephones.
• Do not place or store the printer outdoors, near excessive dirt or dust, water, heat sources, or in
locations subject to shocks, vibrations, high temperature or humidity.
• 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.
• Do not insert objects through the slots on the printer.
• Do not put your hand inside the printer while it is printing.
• Do not touch the flat white cable inside the printer.
• Do not move the print head by hand; this may damage the printer.
• Do not spill liquid on the printer and do not handle the printer with wet hands.
• Do not use aerosol products that contain flammable gases inside or around the printer. Doing so may
cause fire.
• Except as specifically explained in your documentation, do not attempt to service the printer yourself.
277
• Unplug the printer and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: if
the power cord or plug is damaged; if liquid has entered the product; if the product has been dropped
or the case damaged; if the product does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in
performance. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions.
• If damage occurs to the plug, replace the cord set or consult a qualified electrician. If there are fuses in
the plug, make sure you replace them with fuses of the correct size and rating.
• Never disassemble, modify, or attempt to repair the power cord, plug, printer, or options by yourself,
except as specifically explained in the printer's manuals.
• Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet if you are not going to use the printer for an extended
period.
• Before transporting the printer, make sure that the print head is in the home (far right) position and the
ink cartridges are in place.
• When storing or transporting the printer, do not tilt it, stand it on its side, or turn it upside down;
otherwise, ink may leak.

Ink Cartridge Safety Instructions
• Keep ink cartridges and maintenance box out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.
• Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges; there may be ink remaining around the ink supply
port. If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them
immediately with water. If you experience discomfort or vision problems after flushing your eyes, see a
doctor immediately. If ink gets in your mouth, see a doctor immediately.
• Do not put your hand inside the product or touch any cartridges during printing.
• Do not turn off the product during ink charging. If ink charging is incomplete, you may not be able to
print.
• Install a new ink cartridge immediately after removing an expended one. Leaving cartridges
uninstalled can dry out the print head and may prevent the product from printing.
• Do not remove or tear the label on the cartridge; this can cause leakage.
• Do not drop or knock ink cartridges against hard objects; this can cause leakage.
• Do not remove the transparent seal from the bottom of the cartridge. This may cause the cartridge to
become unusable.
• Do not disassemble or modify the ink cartridge; you may not be able to print normally.
• Do not break the hooks on the side of the cartridge when removing it from the packaging.
278
• Do not touch the green IC chip on the side of the cartridge. This may prevent normal operation.
• Do not shake cartridges too vigorously; this can cause them to leak.
• 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 product. 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 cartridge ink supply port or surrounding area.
• Use an ink cartridge before the date printed on its package or within six months of opening the
package, whichever is earlier.
• Do not dismantle an ink cartridge. This could damage the print head.
• Keep the ink cartridges out of direct sunlight.
• Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place; do not store the ink cartridges in high or freezing
temperatures.
• Make sure to install all ink cartridges. The printer only works when all ink cartridges are properly
installed.
• 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.

Binding Arbitration and Class Waiver
1. DISPUTES, BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, AND WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS AND
CLASS ARBITRATIONS
1.1 Disputes. The terms of this Section 1 shall apply to all Disputes between you and Epson. The term
"Dispute" is meant to have the broadest meaning permissible under law and includes any dispute, claim,
controversy or action between you and Epson arising out of or relating to this Agreement, Epson
branded products (hardware and including any related software), or other transaction involving you and
Epson, whether in contract, warranty, misrepresentation, fraud, tort, intentional tort, statute, regulation,
ordinance, or any other legal or equitable basis. "DISPUTE" DOES NOT INCLUDE IP CLAIMS, or more
specifically, a claim or cause of action for (a) trademark infringement or dilution, (b) patent infringement,
(c) copyright infringement or misuse, or (d) trade secret misappropriation (an "IP Claim"). You and Epson
also agree, notwithstanding Section 1.6,that a court, not an arbitrator, may decide if a claim or cause of
action is for an IP Claim.
1.2 Binding Arbitration. You and Epson agree that all Disputes shall be resolved by binding arbitration
according to this Agreement. ARBITRATION MEANS THAT YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO A JUDGE
OR JURY IN A COURT PROCEEDING AND YOUR GROUNDS FOR APPEAL ARE LIMITED.
Pursuant to this Agreement, binding arbitration shall be administered by JAMS, a nationally recognized
arbitration authority, pursuant to its code of procedures then in effect for consumer related disputes, but
excluding any rules that permit joinder or class actions in arbitration (for more detail on procedure, see
Section 1.6 below). You and Epson understand and agree that (a) the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C.
§1, et seq.) governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Section 1, (b) this Agreement
memorializes a transaction in interstate commerce, and (c) this Section 1 shall survive termination of this
Agreement.
1.3 Pre-Arbitration Steps and Notice. Before submitting a claim for arbitration, you and Epson agree to
try, for sixty (60) days, to resolve any Dispute informally. If Epson and you do not reach an agreement to
resolve the Dispute within the sixty (60) days), you or Epson may commence an arbitration. Notice to
Epson must be addressed to: Epson America, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department, 3131 Katella Ave., Los
Alamitos, CA 90720 (the "Epson Address"). The Dispute Notice to you will be sent to the most recent
address Epson has in its records for you. For this reason, it is important to notify us if your address
changes by emailing us at [email protected] or writing us at the Epson Address above. Notice of
the Dispute shall include the sender's name, address and contact information, the facts giving rise to the
Dispute, and the relief requested (the "Dispute Notice"). Following receipt of the Dispute Notice, Epson
and you agree to act in good faith to resolve the Dispute before commencing arbitration.
1.4 Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may bring an individual action in the small
claims court of your state or municipality if the action is within that court's jurisdiction and is pending only
in that court.
281
1.5 WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS AND CLASS ARBITRATIONS. YOU AND EPSON AGREE THAT
EACH PARTY MAY BRING DISPUTES AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL
CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS OR
REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION FEDERAL OR STATE
CLASS ACTIONS, OR CLASS ARBITRATIONS. CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS, CLASS-WIDE
ARBITRATIONS, PRIVATE ATTORNEY-GENERAL ACTIONS, AND ANY OTHER PROCEEDING
WHERE SOMEONE ACTS IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ARE NOT ALLOWED.
ACCORDINGLY, UNDER THE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES OUTLINED IN THIS SECTION, AN
ARBITRATOR SHALL NOT COMBINE OR CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PARTY'S CLAIMS
WITHOUT THE WRITTEN CONSENT OF ALL AFFECTED PARTIES TO AN ARBITRATION
PROCEEDING.
1.6 Arbitration Procedure. If you or Epson commences arbitration, the arbitration shall be governed by
the rules of JAMS that are in effect when the arbitration is filed, excluding any rules that permit arbitration
on a class or representative basis (the "JAMS Rules"), available at http://www.jamsadr.com or by calling
1-800-352-5267, and under the rules set forth in this Agreement. All Disputes shall be resolved by a
single neutral arbitrator, and both parties shall have a reasonable opportunity to participate in the
selection of the arbitrator. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. The arbitrator, and not
any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising
out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Agreement,
including any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable. Notwithstanding this broad
delegation of authority to the arbitrator, a court may determine the limited question of whether a claim or
cause of action is for an IP Claim, which is excluded from the definition of "Disputes" in Section 1.1
above. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under
law or in equity. The arbitrator may award you the same damages as a court could, and may award
declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent
necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. In some instances, the costs of
arbitration can exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration
than in court. The arbitrator's award is binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of
competent jurisdiction.
You may choose to engage in arbitration hearings by telephone. Arbitration hearings not conducted by
telephone shall take place in a location reasonably accessible from your primary residence, or in Orange
County, California, at your option.
a) Initiation of Arbitration Proceeding. If either you or Epson decides to arbitrate a Dispute, both parties
agree to the following procedure:
(i) Write a Demand for Arbitration. The demand must include a description of the Dispute and the amount
of damages sought to be recovered. You can find a copy of a Demand for Arbitration at
http://www.jamsadr.com ("Demand for Arbitration").
(ii) Send three copies of the Demand for Arbitration, plus the appropriate filing fee, to: JAMS, 500 North
State College Blvd., Suite 600 Orange, CA 92868, U.S.A.
282
(iii) Send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to the other party (same address as the Dispute
Notice), or as otherwise agreed by the parties.
b) Hearing Format. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made shall not be disclosed
to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or Epson is entitled.
The discovery or exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the Dispute may be allowed during
the arbitration.
c) Arbitration Fees. Epson shall pay, or (if applicable) reimburse you for, all JAMS filings and arbitrator
fees for any arbitration commenced (by you or Epson) pursuant to provisions of this Agreement.
d) Award in Your Favor. For Disputes in which you or Epson seeks $75,000 or less in damages exclusive
of attorney's fees and costs, if the arbitrator's decision results in an award to you in an amount greater
than Epson's last written offer, if any, to settle the Dispute, Epson will: (i) pay you $1,000 or the amount
of the award, whichever is greater; (ii) pay you twice the amount of your reasonable attorney's fees, if
any; and (iii) reimburse you for any expenses (including expert witness fees and costs) that your attorney
reasonably accrues for investigating, preparing, and pursuing the Dispute in arbitration. Except as
agreed upon by you and Epson in writing, the arbitrator shall determine the amount of fees, costs, and
expenses to be paid by Epson pursuant to this Section 1.6d).
e) Attorney's Fees. Epson will not seek its attorney's fees and expenses for any arbitration commenced
involving a Dispute under this Agreement. Your right to attorney's fees and expenses under Section
1.6d) above does not limit your rights to attorney's fees and expenses under applicable law;
notwithstanding the foregoing, the arbitrator may not award duplicative awards of attorney's fees and
expenses.
1.7 Opt-out. You may elect to opt-out (exclude yourself) from the final, binding, individual
arbitration procedure and waiver of class and representative proceedings specified in this
Agreement by sending a written letter to the Epson Address within thirty (30) days of your assent
to this Agreement (including without limitation the purchase, download, installation of the
Software or other applicable use of Epson Hardware, products and services) that specifies (i)
your name, (ii) your mailing address, and (iii) your request to be excluded from the final, binding
individual arbitration procedure and waiver of class and representative proceedings specified in
this Section 1. In the event that you opt-out consistent with the procedure set forth above, all
other terms shall continue to apply, including the requirement to provide notice prior to litigation.
1.8 Amendments to Section 1. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, you
and Epson agree that if Epson makes any future amendments to the dispute resolution procedure and
class action waiver provisions (other than a change to Epson's address) in this Agreement, Epson will
obtain your affirmative assent to the applicable amendment. If you do not affirmatively assent to the
applicable amendment, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between the parties in
accordance with the language of this Section 1 (or resolve disputes as provided for in Section 1.7, if you
timely elected to opt-out when you first assented to this Agreement).
283
1.9 Severability. If any provision in this Section 1 is found to be unenforceable, that provision shall be
severed with the remainder of this Agreement remaining in full force and effect. The foregoing shall not
apply to the prohibition against class or representative actions as provided in Section 1.5. This
means that if Section 1.5 is found to be unenforceable, the entire Section 1 (but only Section 1)
shall be null and void.
