• Make sure the product work space is kept free of dust or lint that could damage your product or clog
the print head nozzles.
• Use the product in a sufficiently ventilated area.
• When using a commercially available heater, operate it only within the specified temperature range to
maintain print quality and prevent clogging the print head nozzles.
• Perform maintenance operations according to usage frequency or at the recommended intervals.
Failure to perform regular maintenance could reduce print quality or damage the print head.
• Do not bend or pull on the waste ink tube. Otherwise ink may leak inside or outside the printer.
• Be sure that the waste ink bottle is installed whenever the printer is turned on.
• If an error occurs and the printer is turned off without first resolving the error, the print head may not be
in the home position, which may cause the print head to dry out. In this case, turn on the power and
wait until the carriage is in the home position.
• When the printer is on, do not disconnect the power cable or cut the power at the circuit breaker. The
print head may not be in the home position. In this case, turn on the power and wait a while until the
print head is in the home position.
• For consistent color, maintain a constant room temperature between 59 °F (15 °C) and 77 °F (25 °C).
Note:
To keep the print head in the optimum operating condition, ink is used in maintenance operations
such as head cleaning in addition to printing.

Handling Ink Packs and Ink Tanks
Follow these guidelines as you handle the ink packs and ink tanks:
• Do not remove the ink tanks. Ink tanks are calibrated at installation and removing them can decrease
their functionality.
• Do not place items on an ink tank or subject the ink tanks to strong impacts, or the tank may detach. If
an ink tank comes off, contact Epson support.
• Store ink packs at room temperature, out of direct sunlight.
• To ensure print quality, use all the ink in the ink pack before the date printed on the ink pack or within
25 days of refilling the ink tank, whichever is earlier.
