Follow these guidelines when the control panel lights come on or flash:

P is on

The P power light is on when the printer is on and ready to print. It

 

flashes when the printer is receiving a print job or performing a

 

maintenance operation, such as cleaning the print head.

 

 

S flashes

When the S paper out light flashes, paper is jammed in the printer.

 

Turn off the printer and gently pull out all paper. Make sure none of

 

the sheets are curled, creased, old, stuck together, or too thin. Then

 

reload the stack against the right edge guide and slide the left edge

 

guide over to the paper’s left edge. Turn on the printer and press the

 

E load/eject button.

 

 

S is on

When the S paper out light comes on, your paper is out or incorrectly

 

loaded. Make sure none of the sheets are curled, creased, old, stuck

 

together, or too thin. Then reload the stack against the right edge

 

guide and slide the left edge guide over to the paper’s left edge.

 

Press the E load/eject button.

 

 

B or A flash

When an ink out light flashes, your ink supply is low. Make sure you

 

have a replacement cartridge.

 

 

B or A are on

When an ink out light comes on, you need to replace the ink

 

cartridge. See page 30 for instructions.

 

 

P and S flash, and

When the P power and S paper out lights flash and the B black and

B and A are on

A color ink out lights come on, jammed paper may be blocking

 

movement of the print head. Turn off the printer, wait a few seconds,

 

and turn it back on. If no paper ejects, turn off the printer, remove the

 

jammed paper, and turn it on again. If the lights still flash or stay on,

 

contact your dealer or EPSON; see page 46 for contact information.

 

 

P S B A flash

When all the lights flash, your printer may have an internal error.

 

Make sure you removed all the packing material as described on the

 

unpacking sheet in your printer box. Then turn off the printer, wait a

 

few seconds, and turn it on again. If the lights still flash or stay on,

 

contact your dealer or EPSON; see page 46 for contact information.

 

 

P S B A are off

When all the lights are off, the printer is not receiving power. Try

 

these solutions:

 

■ Make sure the printer is turned on.

 

■ Turn off the printer, plug in the power cord securely, and turn on

 

the printer again.

 

■ Make sure the outlet is operable and not controlled by a switch

 

or timer. Try using another outlet.
