Checking for Software Updates

It's a good idea to check Epson's support website occasionally for free updates to your product software.

Visit epson.com/support (U.S.), epson.ca/support (Canada), or epson.com.jm/support (Caribbean) and

select your product.

Note: Your printer is designed to work only with genuine Epson-brand ink cartridges. Other brands of ink

cartridges and ink supplies are not compatible and, even if described as compatible, may not function

properly or at all. Epson periodically provides firmware updates to address issues of security,

performance, minor bug fixes and ensure the printer functions as designed. These updates may affect

the functionality of third-party ink. Non-Epson branded or altered Epson cartridges that functioned prior

to a firmware update may not continue to function.

•Windows: Your printer software automatically checks for updates. You can also manually update the

software by selecting Software Update here:

• Accessing the Windows Desktop and right-clicking the icon for your product in the right side of

the Windows taskbar, or clicking the up arrow and right-clicking .

• On the Maintenance tab in the printer settings window

You can also update the software by selecting EPSON Software Updater in the EPSON or EPSON

Software program group, accessible by the Start button, or on the Start or Apps screens, depending

on your version of Windows.

•OS X: You can manually update the software by opening the Applications >Epson Software folder

and selecting EPSON Software Updater.

•macOS 10.12.x or 10.13.x: You can manually update the software by opening the App Store,

selecting Updates, searching for a software update option for Epson Software, and selecting Update.

Network Security Recommendations

To help deter unauthorized access to your product over a network, you should protect your network

environment using appropriate security measures.

Security measures such as these can help deter threats such as loss of user data, use of telephone and

fax lines, and other intrusions:

•Enable security on your wireless LAN

Enable the appropriate security on the wireless LAN you plan to use with your product. Network

security such as a network password can deter interception of traffic over the wireless LAN. Your

router may already have a default password enabled by your Internet service provider (ISP). See your

ISP and router documentation for instructions on how to change the default password and better

secure your network.

•Connect your product only to a network protected by a firewall

Connecting your product directly to the Internet may leave it vulnerable to security threats. Instead,

connect it to a router or other network connection protected by a firewall. Your router may already

have a firewall set up by your Internet service provider; check with your ISP for confirmation. For best

results, set up and use a private IP address for your network connection.

•Change the default administrator password on your product

If your product has an option to set an administrator password, change the default administrator

password to deter access by unauthorized users to personal data stored on your product, such as IDs,

passwords, and contact lists.

Parent topic: Wi-Fi or Wired Networking

Wi-Fi Infrastructure Mode Setup

Scan Resolution Guidelines

The Resolution setting, measured in dpi (dots per inch), controls the amount of detail captured in your

scans. Increasing the resolution raises the amount of detail captured but comes with the following

disadvantages:

• Larger file sizes

• It takes longer to scan your originals, send/receive your scans by email or fax, and to print your scans

• The image may become too large to fit on your display or print on paper

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 2. Follow these guidelines to determine the

resolution setting you need:

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

Increase the Epson Scan 2 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 the Epson Scan 2 Resolution setting based on how you will use the scanned image:

• Email/view on a computer screen/post on the web: 96 to 200 dpi

• Print/fax/convert to editable text (OCR)/create searchable PDF: 200 to 300 dpi

their best, even after cleaning and aligning the print head.

Note: Please dispose of your used Epson branded ink cartridges and maintenance boxes responsibly

and in accordance with local requirements. If you would like to return your used ink cartridges and

maintenance boxes to Epson for proper disposal, please go to epson.com/recycle for more information.

You can purchase genuine Epson ink, maintenance boxes, and paper at epson.com (U.S. sales),

epson.ca (Canadian sales), or epson.com.jm (Caribbean sales). You can also purchase supplies from

an Epson authorized reseller. To find the nearest one, call 800-GO-EPSON (800-463-7766) in the U.S.

or 800-807-7766 in Canada.

Note: Your printer is designed to work only with genuine Epson-brand ink cartridges. Other brands of ink

cartridges and ink supplies are not compatible and, even if described as compatible, may not function

properly or at all. Epson periodically provides firmware updates to address issues of security,

performance, minor bug fixes and ensure the printer functions as designed. These updates may affect

the functionality of third-party ink. Non-Epson branded or altered Epson cartridges that functioned prior

to a firmware update may not continue to function.

The included initial cartridges are designed for reliable printer setup and cannot be used as replacement

cartridges or resold. After setup, the remaining ink is available for printing. Yields are based on ISO

24711 in default mode, printing continuously. Yields vary due to print images, settings, and

temperatures. Printing infrequently or primarily with one color reduces yields. All cartridges must be

installed with ink for printing and printer maintenance. For print quality, some ink remains in replaced

cartridges.

Product Cannot Connect to a Wireless Router or Access Point

If your product has trouble finding or connecting to a wireless router or access point, try these solutions:

• If you are connecting the product via Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) and the Wi-Fi icon on your

product's LCD screen is not lit or does not appear, make sure you select one of the WPS options from

the product control panel within 2 minutes of pressing the WPS button on your router.

• Make sure to place your product within contact range of your 2.4 GHz router or access point. Avoid

placing your product near a microwave oven, 2.4 GHz cordless phone, or large metal object, such as a

filing cabinet.

Note: If you are using a 5 GHz wireless router, set the router to operate in dual band (2.4 GHz and

5 GHz) mode. If your router uses a single network name (SSID) for both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band,

give each band its own network name (SSID) instead, such as Home Network 2.4 GHz and Home

Network 5 GHz. See your router documentation or contact your internet service provider for

instructions.

272

• Verify that your router or access point is operating correctly by connecting to it from your computer or

another device.

• You may need to disable the firewall and any anti-virus software on your wireless router or access

point.

• Check to see if access restrictions, such as MAC address filtering, are set on the router or access

point. If access restrictions are set, add your product's MAC address to your router's address list. To

obtain your product's MAC address, print a network status sheet. Then follow the instructions in your

router or access point documentation to add the address to the list.

• If your router or access point does not broadcast its network name (SSID), follow the instructions that

came with your product to enter your wireless network name manually.

• If your router or access point has security enabled, determine the kind of security it is using and any

required password or passphrase for connection. Then make sure to enter the exact WEP key or WPA

passphrase correctly.

• Check if your computer is restricting the available wireless channels. If so, verify that your wireless

access point is using one of the usable channels and change to a usable channel, if necessary.

• If you are using a Wi-Fi Direct connection that suddenly disconnects, the Wi-Fi direct password on

your device may have been changed. If necessary, delete the existing DIRECT-xxxxxxxx connection

settings from your device and enter a new password. See your device documentation for instructions.

• If you connected your product to a Windows computer using Wi-Fi Direct and it automatically selected

Access Point Mode, you may have trouble accessing a low-priority Internet connection. Check the

network connection or adapter settings in the Windows Control Panel and set the Internet metric

setting to 100 for your version of the Internet Protocol.

documentation.

Note: Images from the Internet may be low resolution and not result in a high quality printout.

303

• If you enlarged the image size in an image-editing program, you need to increase the image resolution

setting to retain a high image quality. Increase the image resolution by the same amount you increase

the image size. For example, if the image resolution is 300 dpi (dots per inch) and you will double the

image size for printing, change the resolution setting to 600 dpi.

Note: Higher resolution settings result in larger file sizes, which take longer to process and print.

Consider the limitations of your computer system when selecting a resolution, and select the lowest

possible resolution that produces acceptable quality to keep file sizes manageable.

• Run a nozzle check to see if any of the print head nozzles are clogged. Then clean the print head, if

necessary.

• The ink cartridges may be old or low on ink, and you may need to replace them.

• After you print, the colors in your printout need time to set as the ink dries. During this time, the colors

may look different than you expect. To speed up drying time, do not stack your printouts on top of each

other.

• Your printed colors can never exactly match your on-screen colors. However, you can use a color

management system to get as close as possible. Try using the color management options in your

printer software.

• For best results, use genuine Epson paper.

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 2 settings (if available) and try scanning again:

• Select the Descreening setting.

• Select a lower Resolution setting.

Image is Scanned Upside-Down

Your product scans using the Auto Photo Orientation setting. This setting checks the preview image

for faces, the sky, and other features, and then correctly rotates the photo when it is scanned, if

necessary.

If your photo is not oriented correctly using this option, you can turn Auto Photo Orientation off and

scan again. When Photo Mode is selected, select Thumbnail Options from the Main Settings tab.

Select On or Off and scan your document again.

Note: Auto Photo Orientation does not work when you scan newspapers, magazines, documents,

illustrations, or line art, or images smaller than 2 inches (5.1 cm) on any side.

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.

To adjust the colors in your scanned image, adjust these Epson Scan 2 settings (if available) and try

scanning again:

• If the Image Type setting is Color or Grayscale, adjust the Contrast setting.

• If the Image Type setting is Black & White or Grayscale, adjust the Color Enhance setting.

Scanned Image Edges are Cropped

If the edges of a scanned image are cropped, make sure your original is placed correctly for scanning. If

necessary, move your original away from the edges of the scanner glass slightly.

• If you are faxing from a computer, use the Epson FAX Utility to send your fax.

• Make sure the recipient's fax machine is turned on and working.

• Make sure paper is loaded correctly in your product.

• Make sure you have set up your header information and have not blocked your caller ID. Otherwise,

your faxes might be rejected by the recipient's fax machine.

311

• Make sure Receive Mode is set to Auto so you can receive faxes automatically.

• Check that the cable connecting your telephone wall jack to your product's LINE port is secure.

• Print a fax connection report using your product control panel or fax software to help diagnose the

problem.

• Verify that the telephone wall jack works by connecting a phone to it and testing it.

• If there is no dial tone and you connected the product to a PBX (Private Branch Exchange) phone line

or Terminal Adapter, change the Line Type setting to PBX. If you still cannot send a fax, turn off the

product's dial tone detection setting. (Turning off the dial tone setting may cause the product to drop

the first digit of a fax number.)

• If you connected your product to a DSL phone line, you must connect a DSL filter to the phone jack to

enable faxing over the line. Contact your DSL provider for the necessary filter.

• If your telephone line has static, turn off your product's error correction mode fax communication

setting and try faxing again.

• Try lowering your product's fax speed setting.

• Make sure the error correction mode (ECM) setting is turned on if you are trying to send or receive a

color fax.

• If your telephone line uses call waiting and you have trouble receiving faxes, turn off call waiting to

prevent disruption of incoming faxes.

• If you have subscribed to a call forwarding service, the product may not be able to receive faxes.

Contact your service provider for assistance.

Note: If your product is connected to a VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) phone line, keep in mind that

fax machines are designed to work over analog phone lines. Epson cannot guarantee that fax

transmission will work when using VoIP.

If your phone line includes voice mail answering services, calls or faxes may be inadvertently received

by your voice mail service.

Ink Cartridge Specifications

Note: Your printer is designed to work only with genuine Epson-brand ink cartridges. Other brands of ink

cartridges and ink supplies are not compatible and, even if described as compatible, may not function

properly or at all. Epson periodically provides firmware updates to address issues of security,

performance, minor bug fixes and ensure the printer functions as designed. These updates may affect

the functionality of third-party ink. Non-Epson branded or altered Epson cartridges that functioned prior

to a firmware update may not continue to function.

The included initial cartridges are designed for reliable printer setup and cannot be used as replacement

cartridges or resold. After setup, the remaining ink is available for printing. Yields are based on ISO

24711 in default mode, printing continuously. Yields vary due to print images, settings, and

temperatures. Printing infrequently or primarily with one color reduces yields. All cartridges must be

installed with ink for printing and printer maintenance. For print quality, some ink remains in replaced

cartridges.

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

334

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.

• After bringing an ink cartridge inside from a cold storage site, allow it to warm up at room temperature

for at least three hours before using it.

• Store ink cartridges with their labels facing upward. Do not store cartridges upside down.

Binding Arbitration and Class Waiver

1. DISPUTES, BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, AND WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS AND

CLASS ARBITRATIONS

1.1 Disputes. The terms of this Section 1 shall apply to all Disputes between you and Epson. The term

"Dispute" is meant to have the broadest meaning permissible under law and includes any dispute, claim,

controversy or action between you and Epson arising out of or relating to this Agreement, Epson

branded products (hardware and including any related software), or other transaction involving you and

Epson, whether in contract, warranty, misrepresentation, fraud, tort, intentional tort, statute, regulation,

ordinance, or any other legal or equitable basis. "DISPUTE" DOES NOT INCLUDE IP CLAIMS, or more

specifically, a claim or cause of action for (a) trademark infringement or dilution, (b) patent infringement,

also agree, notwithstanding Section 1.6,that a court, not an arbitrator, may decide if a claim or cause of

action is for an IP Claim.

1.2 Binding Arbitration. You and Epson agree that all Disputes shall be resolved by binding arbitration

according to this Agreement. ARBITRATION MEANS THAT YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO A JUDGE

OR JURY IN A COURT PROCEEDING AND YOUR GROUNDS FOR APPEAL ARE LIMITED.

Pursuant to this Agreement, binding arbitration shall be administered by JAMS, a nationally recognized

arbitration authority, pursuant to its code of procedures then in effect for consumer related disputes, but

excluding any rules that permit joinder or class actions in arbitration (for more detail on procedure, see

Section 1.6 below). You and Epson understand and agree that (a) the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C.

§1, et seq.) governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Section 1, (b) this Agreement

memorializes a transaction in interstate commerce, and (c) this Section 1 shall survive termination of this

Agreement.

1.3 Pre-Arbitration Steps and Notice. Before submitting a claim for arbitration, you and Epson agree to

try, for sixty (60) days, to resolve any Dispute informally. If Epson and you do not reach an agreement to

resolve the Dispute within the sixty (60) days), you or Epson may commence an arbitration. Notice to

Epson must be addressed to: Epson America, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department, 3840 Kilroy Airport Way,

Long Beach, CA 90806 (the "Epson Address"). The Dispute Notice to you will be sent to the most recent

339

address Epson has in its records for you. For this reason, it is important to notify us if your address

changes by emailing us at EAILegal@ea.epson.com or writing us at the Epson Address above. Notice of

the Dispute shall include the sender's name, address and contact information, the facts giving rise to the

Dispute, and the relief requested (the "Dispute Notice"). Following receipt of the Dispute Notice, Epson

and you agree to act in good faith to resolve the Dispute before commencing arbitration.

1.4 Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may bring an individual action in the small

claims court of your state or municipality if the action is within that court's jurisdiction and is pending only

in that court.

1.5 WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS AND CLASS ARBITRATIONS. YOU AND EPSON AGREE THAT

EACH PARTY MAY BRING DISPUTES AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL

CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS OR

REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION FEDERAL OR STATE

CLASS ACTIONS, OR CLASS ARBITRATIONS. CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS, CLASS-WIDE

ARBITRATIONS, PRIVATE ATTORNEY-GENERAL ACTIONS, AND ANY OTHER PROCEEDING

WHERE SOMEONE ACTS IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ARE NOT ALLOWED.

ACCORDINGLY, UNDER THE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES OUTLINED IN THIS SECTION, AN

ARBITRATOR SHALL NOT COMBINE OR CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PARTY'S CLAIMS

WITHOUT THE WRITTEN CONSENT OF ALL AFFECTED PARTIES TO AN ARBITRATION

PROCEEDING.

1.6 Arbitration Procedure. If you or Epson commences arbitration, the arbitration shall be governed by

the rules of JAMS that are in effect when the arbitration is filed, excluding any rules that permit arbitration

on a class or representative basis (the "JAMS Rules"), available at http://www.jamsadr.com or by calling

1-800-352-5267, and under the rules set forth in this Agreement. All Disputes shall be resolved by a

single neutral arbitrator, and both parties shall have a reasonable opportunity to participate in the

selection of the arbitrator. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. The arbitrator, and not

any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising

out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Agreement,

including any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable. Notwithstanding this broad

delegation of authority to the arbitrator, a court may determine the limited question of whether a claim or

cause of action is for an IP Claim, which is excluded from the definition of "Disputes" in Section 1.1

above. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under

law or in equity. The arbitrator may award you the same damages as a court could, and may award

declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent

necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. In some instances, the costs of

arbitration can exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration

than in court. The arbitrator's award is binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of

competent jurisdiction.

340

You may choose to engage in arbitration hearings by telephone. Arbitration hearings not conducted by

telephone shall take place in a location reasonably accessible from your primary residence, or in Orange

County, California, at your option.

a) Initiation of Arbitration Proceeding. If either you or Epson decides to arbitrate a Dispute, both parties

agree to the following procedure:

(i) Write a Demand for Arbitration. The demand must include a description of the Dispute and the amount

of damages sought to be recovered. You can find a copy of a Demand for Arbitration at

http://www.jamsadr.com ("Demand for Arbitration").

(ii) Send three copies of the Demand for Arbitration, plus the appropriate filing fee, to: JAMS, 500 North

State College Blvd., Suite 600 Orange, CA 92868, U.S.A.

(iii) Send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to the other party (same address as the Dispute

Notice), or as otherwise agreed by the parties.

b) Hearing Format. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made shall not be disclosed

to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or Epson is entitled.

The discovery or exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the Dispute may be allowed during

the arbitration.

c) Arbitration Fees. Epson shall pay, or (if applicable) reimburse you for, all JAMS filings and arbitrator

fees for any arbitration commenced (by you or Epson) pursuant to provisions of this Agreement.

d) Award in Your Favor. For Disputes in which you or Epson seeks $75,000 or less in damages exclusive

of attorney's fees and costs, if the arbitrator's decision results in an award to you in an amount greater

than Epson's last written offer, if any, to settle the Dispute, Epson will: (i) pay you $1,000 or the amount

of the award, whichever is greater; (ii) pay you twice the amount of your reasonable attorney's fees, if

any; and (iii) reimburse you for any expenses (including expert witness fees and costs) that your attorney

reasonably accrues for investigating, preparing, and pursuing the Dispute in arbitration. Except as

agreed upon by you and Epson in writing, the arbitrator shall determine the amount of fees, costs, and

expenses to be paid by Epson pursuant to this Section 1.6d).

e) Attorney's Fees. Epson will not seek its attorney's fees and expenses for any arbitration commenced

involving a Dispute under this Agreement. Your right to attorney's fees and expenses under Section

1.6d) above does not limit your rights to attorney's fees and expenses under applicable law;

notwithstanding the foregoing, the arbitrator may not award duplicative awards of attorney's fees and

expenses.

1.7 Opt-out. You may elect to opt-out (exclude yourself) from the final, binding, individual

arbitration procedure and waiver of class and representative proceedings specified in this

Agreement by sending a written letter to the Epson Address within thirty (30) days of your assent

to this Agreement (including without limitation the purchase, download, installation of the

Software or other applicable use of Epson Hardware, products and services) that specifies (i)

your name, (ii) your mailing address, and (iii) your request to be excluded from the final, binding

341

individual arbitration procedure and waiver of class and representative proceedings specified in

this Section 1. In the event that you opt-out consistent with the procedure set forth above, all

other terms shall continue to apply, including the requirement to provide notice prior to litigation.

1.8 Amendments to Section 1. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, you

and Epson agree that if Epson makes any future amendments to the dispute resolution procedure and

class action waiver provisions (other than a change to Epson's address) in this Agreement, Epson will

obtain your affirmative assent to the applicable amendment. If you do not affirmatively assent to the

applicable amendment, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between the parties in

accordance with the language of this Section 1 (or resolve disputes as provided for in Section 1.7, if you

timely elected to opt-out when you first assented to this Agreement).

1.9 Severability. If any provision in this Section 1 is found to be unenforceable, that provision shall be

severed with the remainder of this Agreement remaining in full force and effect. The foregoing shall not

apply to the prohibition against class or representative actions as provided in Section 1.5. This

means that if Section 1.5 is found to be unenforceable, the entire Section 1 (but only Section 1)

shall be null and void.
