Printer Usage Guidelines Follow the guidelines in this section as you use your printer, ink cartridges, and print media. Using Your Printer Storing Your Printer Handling Ink and Cleaning Cartridges Ha.
• To keep the print head in optimum operating condition, maintenance is performed when the printer is turned on. If the printer is turned on and off frequently, more ink is consumed for each maintenance operation. To reduce ink consumption, leave the power on when using the printer.
Parent topic: Printer Usage Guidelines Related references Handling White Ink (White Edition) Related tasks Storing the Printer Handling Ink and Cleaning Cartridges Follow these guidelines as you handle the ink and cleaning cartridges: • When installing ink cartridges for the first time, a lot of ink is consumed during initial ink charging.
• Removed ink cartridges may have ink around the ink supply port, so be careful not to stain any surfaces with ink. • Do not dismantle or remodel ink cartridges. You may not be able to print properly. • Do not drop ink cartridges or subject them to impacts.
• Wash the ink tubes when a message is displayed to prevent a decline in print quality due to sedimentation in the tubes. After washing, auto cleaning is performed to prevent nozzles from clogging. White ink and color inks are used to clean all of the nozzles.
• If traces of pre-treatment solution are visible, try soaking the T-shirt in water (however, the effectiveness depends on the T-shirt material). • If pre-treatment solution is applied to a white or light-colored T-shirt, the treated side may turn yellow.

T-shirts (commercially available) For best results, use a T-shirt that is 100% cotton with thick and tightly-woven material, and a cotton blend ratio of 100 to 50%. Since the print quality cannot always be guaranteed for some types of fabric, perform a test print first.
Pre-treatment Solution Safety Precautions Preparing the Pre-treatment Solution Diluting the Pre-treatment Solution Pre-treatment Application Guidelines Pre-treating a T-shirt with a Roller Pre-treatin.
Caution: Pre-treatment solution is classified as industrial waste and must be disposed of by an industrial waste disposal company according to local laws and regulations. When handing over the pre-treatment solution to an industrial waste disposal company, make sure you include these safety precautions.
Note: Make sure you pull the cap section out of the hole in the cardboard. If the cap is opened without being pulled out, the pre-treatment solution may spill out. 3. Remove the cap. 4. Remove the tap from the bag and turn the tap's handle section until the hole is visible as shown.
5. Attach the tap. 6. Remove the cap from the tap and turn the lever until the hole is facing down. 7. To pour the solution, tip the cardboard or the container and pour the pre-treatment solution into the desired container. 8. When you have finished pouring the solution, put the cap back on the tap.
Diluting the Pre-treatment Solution Before applying the pre-treatment solution to a T-shirt, make sure you dilute it correctly with distilled or purified water as described here. Caution: If you do not dilute the pre-treatment solution, it leaves noticeable traces on the T-shirt or the printed surface cracks after washing.
Apply the diluted pre-treatment solution to the T-shirt with a roller or spray method according to these guidelines. When fixing ink with a heat press Printed area size Amount of diluted solution to apply Letter/A4 and smaller Apply 0.0054 to 0.0073 ounce/sq.
4. Apply the solution evenly in both directions as shown to an area larger than the target print area. It's important to finish in the shoulder-to-shoulder direction; this aligns the fabric fibers to the direction of the print head movement. 5. Fix the pre-treatment solution with a heat press, if necessary.
3. Spray the pre-treatment solution evenly over an area larger than the target print area. Note: Run a roller over the area after spraying for an even application of the pre-treatment solution. 4. Fix the pre-treatment solution with a heat press, if necessary.
The fixing conditions vary depending on the amount of pre-treatment solution used. The following guidelines are approximate. Note: If the pre-treatment solution is not completely dry after the suggested amount of time, extend the duration while carefully checking if the pre-treatment solution is dry.
2. Remove the White ink cartridge, shake it, then replace it. 3. Print a nozzle check pattern to check for clogged nozzles. Parent topic: Basic Printing Related tasks Performing a Nozzle Check Shaking.

Replacing the Platen You may need to replace the platen, depending on the size of the T-shirt. Note: There are four platen sizes: small, medium, large, and sleeve. The medium size platen (standard) is supplied with the printer. 1. If the platen is not in the forward position, press the moveable base button to move the platen forward.
3. Align the replacement platen to fit into the holes in the moveable base and place the platen on the printer. For best results, always align the print head after replacing the platen with a different size.
2. Remove the platen frame. 3. Load the T-shirt so that the shoulders are facing the front of the printer. 41.
4. Smooth out the print surface so that it is flat. 42.
5. Replace the platen frame. Note: There may be lint on the T-shirt if you have not applied pre-treatment solution. If not removed, lint and fibers may stick to the print head and stain other areas of the print. Remove any lint using sticky tape or a lint roller, and press the fibers flat using a hard roller.
6. Smooth out any creases. 44.
7. Gently pull the edges of the T-shirt outside of the frame to remove any slack. Note: The printer detects the highest part of the print surface and adjusts the height accordingly. If there are any creases or slack near the inside edge of the frame, print quality may decline.
8. Tuck the T-shirt in around the frame so that it does not drape over the movable base. 9. Press down on the platen frame so that it does not become loose.
If the sensor is still triggered, try the following: 1. Remove the frame and smooth out the creases and slack. 2. Reduce the width of the White ink in the printer's Garment Creator software or the RIP software so that the white under-base print does not extend outside the image.
Position number Platen height error P Displayed 1 Displayed 2 Not displayed (optimum height) 3 Not displayed Caution: Incorrect platen height settings cause excessive ink mist buildup inside the printer. If you notice ink mist accumulating quickly, adjust your platen height settings.
3. Move the height adjustment lever to adjust the height of the platen to one of these starting positions: • Standard T-shirt: 2 • Thick material (such as a sweatshirt): up to 8 Note: If you remove the round part of the base to print on thick fabrics, the height adjustment position numbers are no longer visible.
5. Tighten the fixing lever and secure the height adjustment lever. You can also adjust the angle of the fixing lever, if necessary. Note: Print quality may decline if you do not tighten the fixing lever. 6. Press the moveable base button to move the platen into the printer.

Nothing Prints If you have sent a print job and nothing prints, try these solutions: • Make sure your printer is turned on. • Make sure any interface cables are connected securely at both ends. If you have a spare cable, try connecting with the spare cable.
• Try connecting your printer to a different port or a different router, access point, switch, or hub. • Try connecting with a different Ethernet cable.
• Check that the pre-treatment solution is completely dry before reloading the T-shirt on the platen. Parent topic: Solving Printing Problems Related tasks Adjusting the Height of the Platen Message.
• If you print from a USB memory device with a slow reading speed (4.63MB per sec or less), the print head stops during printing and then continues. Use a USB memory device with a faster reading speed.
Nozzle Check Pattern Prints Incorrectly If the nozzle check pattern does not print correctly, try these solutions: • Clean the print head and print the check pattern again. If cleaning the print head several times does not solve the problem, clean the suction cap.
• Adjust the platen feed. • Make sure you are using genuine Epson ink cartridges. If you use non-Epson ink cartridges, the print result may be faint, or the color of the printed image may be inaccurate because the remaining ink level is not correctly detected.
