Problems and Solutions
Here are some basic troubleshooting tips if you have any problems setting up your EPSON Stylus Scan, installing software, or getting good quality printouts or scanned images.
Since copying involves both printing and scanning, look for copy problems in both “Solving Printing and Copying Problems” on page 124 and “Solving Scanning and Copying Problems” on page 132.

The printer started making noise after you installed the ink cartridges.
■The first time you install ink cartridges, the printer must
charge its ink delivery system for a few minutes. Please wait until charging is finished (the Ppower light stops
flashing) before you turn off the printer. Otherwise, you will waste ink.
■Make sure the ink cartridge clamps are locked down completely and that no packing material remains in the printer.
The printer has finished charging the ink cartridge, but the Ppower light is still flashing.
