Quick Setup
Unpack the Printer
Remove any packing material from the printer, as described on
the Notice Sheet in the box. Save all the packaging so you can
use it if you need to transport the printer later. You’ll find these
items inside:
Place the printer flat on a stable desk near a grounded outlet.
Leave plenty of room in back for the cables and for a stack of
continuous paper, if you use it. Leave enough room in front for
the paper tray you’ll install in section 4.
Do NOT put the printer:
◗In an area with high temperature or humidity
◗In direct sunlight or dusty conditions
◗Near sources of heat or electromagnetic interference, such
as loudspeakers or cordless telephone base units
Also, be sure to follow the Safety Instructions in the
Introduction of your User’s Guide.

Install the Manual Feeder Edge
Guides
The edge guides are used to guide paper into the manual feed
slot or to hold a roll of banner paper. (See Chapter 3 in your
User’s Guide.)
Place the top of the left edge guide over the manual feed guide
at the back of the printer, then snap the bottom edge of the
guide into place. Repeat for the right edge guide.
Install the Banner Paper Cover
Slide the clips on the bottom of the banner paper cover over the
tabs on the bottom of the manual feed guide. To close the
cover, push it up until the holes fit over the tabs on the back of
the printer.

Attach the Paper Tray
1. Place the paper tray cover on the paper tray so that it fits
into the slots on the sides of the paper tray.
2. Insert the paper tray into the lower front opening of the
printer and push it firmly into position.
Plug In the Printer
1. Make sure the power is off. Check the POperate button;
it’s off when its surface is even with the button guards on
each side.
2. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded outlet. To
protect the printer from power surges, you may want to use
a surge protector.
Caution:
Do not plug the printer
into an outlet controlled
by a wall switch or timer,
or on the same circuit as
a large appliance. This
may disrupt the power,
w
hich can erase memory
and damage the power
supply.

Install the Ink Cartridges
1. Press the POperate button to turn on the printer. The
Operate light and all four Ink Out lights come on and the
Pause light begins flashing.
2. Open the ink cartridge compartment by pushing the top of
the ink compartment door. You see four slots for the ink
cartridges.
3. Open the ink cartridge packages.
4. Insert the cartridges, foil plug first, arrow on top, into the
slots. Insert cartridges in the following order: yellow,
magenta, cyan, and black. Each cartridge is “keyed” so it
can be inserted only into the correct slot. Push each
cartridge all the way into its slot until it meets resistance
and the corresponding ink cartridge light turns off.
Warning:
If ink gets on your hands,
wash them thoroughly with
soap and water. If ink gets
into your eyes, flush them
immediately with water.

5. Close the ink compartment door.
The printer begins charging the advanced ink delivery
system. Charging takes up to 10 minutes, with the Pause
light flashing until it’s finished; then the Pause light stays
on. Do not turn off the printer or interrupt this important
process or you’ll use up more ink than necessary.
When the Pause light stops flashing, the ink charging
process is finished.
6. Press the Pause button to turn off the Pause light.
Load the Paper
To test the printer operation, load several sheets of letter-size
plain paper in the built-in sheet feeder as described in this
section. For instructions on loading other types of paper or
using the other paper feeders, see your User’s Guide.
1. Make sure the paper release lever is set back to the single
sheet position.
Caution:
Never turn off the printer
when the Pause light is
flashing. However, if the
Pause light is still flashing
after 15 minutes and the
printer has stopped
moving or making noise,
you may turn off the
printer.

Test the Printer
1. Turn off the printer and wait until the Operate light turns
off.
2. While holding down the Load/Eject button, turn on the
printer. Hold down the Load/Eject button for three
seconds, then release it.
3. The first page prints on the first and last lines to measure
the page length. The next sheet prints character samples at
360 dpi (dots per inch). To stop the test, press the Pause
button after the second page prints to stop the test.
4. Press the Load/Eject button to eject any loaded pages.
Then turn off the printer.
If you have any problems with the test, see Chapter 6 in your
User’s Guide for more information.
Connect the Printer to Your
Computer
Depending on your system, you can connect the printer to your
computer using any of the following:
◗Parallel interface—for Windows
◗Parallel interface with the included USB-to-parallel cable—
for Windows 98 and above or Macintosh
◗Optional IEEE 1394 FireWire interface card (C823722)—
for Windows 2000, XP, and Macintosh
◗Optional 10/100 BaseT Ethernet interface card
(C12C823912)—network connectivity for all systems
In some cases, it may be to your advantage to use an optional
interface card instead of the built-in port.

EPSON’s optional Ethernet card allows other users on your
network to access the printer. To provide adequate bandwidth,
you need a switched 100 Mbit hub on your network.
To connect your printer to a network interface you must first
install an optional interface card as described on page 10.
Connecting to the Parallel Port
To use the printer’s built-in parallel interface, you need one of
the following:
◗The USB-to-parallel cable included with the printer
◗A shielded, bidirectional, parallel cable (Windows only)
1. Make sure the printer and your computer are turned off.
2. Connect the cable to the printer’s parallel interface; then
squeeze the wire clips together until they lock in place on
both sides.
Note:
If you are using the USB-
to-parallel cable on a
Windows 98 or
Windows Me system,
you must install the
printer software before
you connect the cable to
your computer. See
page 12 for instructions.

3. Do one of the following:
◗If you’re using the included USB-to-parallel cable,
connect the other end of the cable to one of the USB
ports on your computer (Windows 98 and above, or
Macintosh).
◗If you’re using a parallel cable (Windows only),
connect the other end of the cable to your computer’s
parallel port and secure it as necessary.
After you connect the printer, you’re ready to install the
software, as described on page 12.
Installing and Connecting to an Optional
Interface Card
To connect the printer to an optional FireWire or Ethernet
card, you first need to install the card in your printer. You also
need the appropriate cable.
1. Turn off your computer and your printer.
2. IMPORTANT: Unplug the printer from its electrical
outlet. Not doing so will cause damage to the printer and
the card.
3. Disconnect any interface cables from the printer.
4. Use a Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the two screws
securing the interface cover. Then lift off the cover.
Caution:
Before installing the card,
you must unplug the
printer from the power
outlet to avoid damaging
the printer and the card.
