Basic Setup

Explained below are the basic setup steps that you need to perform before you can start using this printer model.

Paper Loading

Once the unpacking of the printer is complete, connect the power cord with the printer and then turn it on. After that, pull out the paper cassette and then slide the edge guides outward. If you are using legal-size paper or larger, press the button and extend the paper cassette. Once done, put a stack of paper in the printer and make sure about a few things:

• The paper is below the maximum paper mark because overfilling the paper tray will cause a paper feeding problem.
• The side to be printed on must be face down.
• The paper guides should touch the sides of the paper so it will feed properly.

Now, slide the edge guides against the paper but not too tightly, and after that, gently insert the paper cassette. Next, go to the LCD screen of the printer to verify the size and type of the paper you just loaded. Once it’s done press the Ok button to complete the process.

For users’ convenience, we have provided a complete list of max loading capacity of a particular paper type:

• Plain paper – Letter (8.5 × 11 inches [216 × 279 mm]): 150 sheets
• Plain paper – Legal (8.5 × 14 inches [216 × 356 mm]): 30 sheets
• Epson Bright White Paper: 150 sheets
• Presentation Paper Matte: 80 sheets
• Epson Premium Presentation Paper Matte: 20 sheets
• Envelopes: 10 envelopes

Ink Cartridges Installation

Now, once the paper loading is done, it’s time to install the Epson ink cartridges in the printer. So, take out the cartridge from the box and then shake it four to five times. Then, remove its plastic cover but don’t remove the labels or seals accidentally to avoid the chances of ink leakage problem. Also, do not touch the green chip on the cartridge. Now remove the yellow tape from the cartridge and then lift up the scanner unit without touching the flat white cable inside the printer. Next, without wasting any more time, insert the new cartridge into the holder and push it all the way down until you hear a clicking noise.

Try to complete the setup as quickly as possible. Otherwise, your ink will dry up. After that, press the Color button to make sure that the cartridge is installed correctly. If the cartridge is not installed properly, you will get an alert message. In that case, you have to remove the cartridge and then reinstall it. Once its properly set in the place close the scanner unit and wait till your LCD screen displays the “Ink Replacement is Complete’ message.
