Setting Up the Printer

1-1
Once you’ve assembled the printer, you’re ready to finish setting it up. Even 
if you have no experience, you can easily complete this process. You should 
allow at least two hours so that you don’t feel rushed.
This chapter covers the following information:
Installing the ink cartridges
Loading the roll paper
Running a nozzle check
Connecting the printer to your computer
Installing the printer software and configuring it for network use, if 
necessary
Aligning the print head from the printer software
Installing the Ink Cartridges
It’s important that the first ink cartridges you install be the ones that came 
with the printer. The chips on these cartridges are programmed to cause the 
printer to initialize as the correct ink model: Archival Ink or Photographic 
Dye Ink. Ink cartridges that you later buy from EPSON do not have the 
same program on their chips.
Before you begin, make sure that the printer is plugged into a grounded 
outlet. Then locate the ink cartridges that came with the printer. Follow 
these steps to install the cartridges:
1. Press the 
 
P Power button on the control panel to turn the printer on.

Note
Before you begin this 
chapter, complete the 
instructions in the 
Unpacking and 
Assembly
 Guide.
Note
The ink cartridges that 
came with your printer 
include a special chip 
that causes the printer to 
initialize as the correct 
ink model. Make sure 
you install these ink 
cartridges when you 
set up the printer.
