Scan Resolution Guidelines

If you plan to enlarge a scanned image so you can print it at a larger size, you may need to increase the resolution from the default resolution set by Epson Scan. Follow these guidelines to determine the resolution setting you need:

• You will enlarge the image as you scan it.

165

If you will enlarge the image using Epson Scan's Target Size setting, you do not need to increase the

Resolution setting.

• You will scan the image at its original size but enlarge it later in an image-editing program.

Increase Epson Scan's Resolution setting in your scan. Increase the resolution by the same amount you will increase the image size to retain a high image quality. For example, if the resolution is 300 dpi

(dots per inch) and you will double the image size later, change the Resolution setting to 600 dpi.

• You will scan the image at 100% or smaller size.

Select Epson Scan's Resolution setting based on how you will use the scanned image:

• Email/view on a computer screen/post on the web: 96 to 150 dpi

• Print/convert to editable text (OCR): 300 dpi

• Fax: 200 dpi

Removing and Installing Ink Cartridges

Make sure you have your replacement cartridges handy before you begin. You must install new cartridges immediately after removing the old ones.

Caution: Leave your old cartridges in the printer until you are ready to replace them to prevent the print head nozzles from drying out. Do not open ink cartridge packages until you are ready to install the ink.

Cartridges are vacuum packed to maintain reliability.

Make sure that the CD/DVD tray is not inserted for printing.

Turn on your product.

• If an ink cartridge is expended, you see a message on the LCD screen. Note which cartridges need to be replaced and select Proceed . Then choose Yes, replace now .

• If you are replacing a cartridge before you see a message on the LCD screen, select Setup >

Caution: Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise, you may damage your product. Do not touch the flat white cable inside the printer.

Push in the blue tab to unlock the ink cartridge you are replacing. Then lift the bottom of the ink cartridge to remove it.

297

Warning: If ink gets on your skin, wash it thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If ink gets into your mouth, spit it out and see a doctor right away.

Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children.

Recap the used ink cartridge using the cap that came with it.

Note: Dispose of used cartridges carefully. Do not take the used cartridge apart or try to refill it.

If you are replacing the Black (BK) ink cartridge, shake the new cartridge gently four or five times before unwrapping it. You do not need to shake the Photo Black (PBK) cartridge or any of the other color ink cartridges.

Caution: Do not shake the cartridges after opening the packages, or ink may leak.

298

Remove the cartridge from the package.

Caution: Do not touch the areas shown above. Doing so may prevent normal operation and printing.

Note: Do not turn off the product while it is charging or you will waste ink. If you see an error screen telling you an ink cartridge is installed incorrectly, lift up the scanner unit and press the ink cartridge down until it clicks into place. When you're finished, close the scanner unit.

If you remove a low or expended ink cartridge, you cannot re-install and use the cartridge.

Caution: If you remove an ink cartridge for later use, recap the ink cartridge using the cap that came with it to prevent the ink from drying out and to protect the surrounding area from getting smeared by ink.

Ripple Patterns Appear in an Image

You may see a ripple pattern (called a moiré) in scanned images of printed documents. This is caused by interference from differing pitches in the scanner's screen and your original's halftone screen. To reduce this effect, adjust these Epson Scan settings (if available) and try scanning again:

• Select the Descreening setting.

Scanned Image Colors Do Not Match Original Colors

Printed colors can never exactly match the colors on your computer monitor because printers and monitors use different color systems: monitors use RGB (red, green, and blue) and printers typically use

CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black).

Check the color matching and color management capabilities of your computer, display adapter, and the software you are using to see if they are affecting the palette of colors you see on your screen.

364

To adjust the colors in your scanned image, adjust these Epson Scan settings (if available) and try scanning again:

• Change the Image Type setting and experiment with different combinations of the next settings.

• Adjust the Tone Correction setting.

• Adjust the Auto Exposure setting.

Ink Cartridge Safety Instructions

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

• Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges; there may be ink remaining around the ink supply port. If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with water.

• Do not put your hand inside the product or touch any cartridges during printing.

• Install a new ink cartridge immediately after removing an expended one. Leaving cartridges uninstalled can dry out the print head and may prevent the product from printing.

• Do not remove or tear the label on the cartridge; this can cause leakage.

• Do not remove the transparent seal from the bottom of the cartridge. This may cause the cartridge to become unusable.

• Do not break the hooks on the side of the cartridge when removing it from the packaging.

• Do not touch the green IC chip on the side of the cartridge. This may prevent normal operation.

• Do not shake cartridges after opening their packages; this can cause them to leak.

• If you remove an ink cartridge for later use, protect the ink supply area from dirt and dust and store it in the same environment as the product. Note that there is a valve in the ink supply port, making covers or plugs unnecessary, but care is needed to prevent the ink from staining items that the cartridge touches. Do not touch the ink cartridge ink supply port or surrounding area.

• Use an ink cartridge before the date printed on its package.

• Do not dismantle an ink cartridge. This could damage the print head.

• Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place.
