that doesn’t work, turn off the printer and gently

 

pull out all the paper. Make sure none of the

 

sheets are curled, creased, old, stuck together,

 

or too thin. Then reload the paper against the

 

right edge guide and slide the left edge guide

 

against it. Turn on the printer and press the

 

E load/eject button to resume printing.

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

 

paper against the right edge guide and slide the

 

left edge guide against it. Press the E load/eject

 

button to resume printing.

P and S flash

When the P power and S paper out lights flash

and

and the B black and A color ink out lights come

on, jammed paper may be blocking movement

 

of the print head or you may not have removed

 

the yellow tape seal from the installed ink

 

cartridge(s). Turn off the printer, open the cover,

 

and check inside for any jammed paper. Then

 

turn the printer back on. If an ink out light

still flash and/or come on, contact your dealer or

 

EPSON.

sheet in your printer box. Then turn off the

 

printer, wait a few seconds, and turn it on again.

 

If the lights still flash, contact your dealer or

 

EPSON.

 

 

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 is not

 

controlled by a switch or timer. If in doubt,

 

try using another outlet.

 

 

Installing an Ink Cartridge for the First Time

Follow these ink cartridge precautions and the others in the Printer Basics book:

Install both ink cartridges, and leave them installed for all types of printing, or the printer won’t work.

Remove the yellow tape seal from the top of the ink cartridges or you’ll permanently damage them. Don’t remove the clear seals on the bottom or ink will leak out.

Don’t open an ink cartridge clamp to remove a cartridge except to replace it with a new one. Once you remove a cartridge, you can’t reuse it, even if it contains ink.

Never turn off the printer when the P power light is flashing, unless the printer hasn’t moved or made any noise for more than five minutes.

Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.

If ink gets on your skin, wash the area thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with water.

1. Lower the output tray and open the cover.
