Safety Precautions
All safety procedures described here shall be strictly adhered to by all parties servicing and maintaining this
product.
DANGER
Strictly observe the following cautions. Failure to comply could result in serious bodily injury or loss of life.
1. Always disconnect the product from the power source and peripheral devices when servicing the product or
performing maintenance.
2. When performing works described in this manual, do not connect to a power source until instructed to do so.
Connecting to a power source causes high voltage in the power supply unit and some electronic components
even if the product power switch is off. If you need to perform the work with the power cable connected to a
power source, use extreme caution to avoid electrical shock.
WARNING
Strictly observe the following cautions. Failure to comply may lead to personal injury or loss of life.
1. Always wear protective goggles for disassembly and reassembly to protect your eyes from ink in working. If
any ink gets in your eyes, wash your eyes with clean water and consult a doctor immediately.
2. When using compressed air products; such as air duster, for cleaning during repair and maintenance, the use
of such products containing flammable gas is prohibited.
PRECAUTIONS
Strictly observe the following cautions. Failure to comply may lead to personal injury or damage of the product.
1. Repairs on Epson product should be performed only by an Epson certified repair technician.
2. No work should be performed on this product by persons unfamiliar with basic safety knowledge required for
electrician.
3. The power rating of this product is indicated on the serial number/rating plate. Never connect this product to
the power source whose voltages is different from the rated voltage.
4. Replace malfunctioning components only with those components provided or approved by Epson;
introduction of second-source ICs or other non-approved components may damage the product and void any
applicable Epson warranty.
5. In order to protect sensitive microprocessors and circuitry, use static discharge equipment, such as anti-static
wrist straps, when accessing internal components.
6. Do not tilt this product immediately after initial ink charge, especially after performing the ink charge several
times. Doing so may cause ink to leak from the product because it may take some time for the waste ink pads
to completely absorb ink wasted due to the ink charge.
7. Never touch the ink or wasted ink with bare hands. If ink comes into contact with your skin, wash it off with
soap and water immediately. If you have a skin irritation, consult a doctor immediately.
Confidential

Head ID
In the conventional color calibration with a Head ID, the printhead characteristics (weight of discharged ink) are
measured and compensated. The following shows the correlation between conventional Head ID adjustment and
Colorimetric Calibration.
Table 2-3. The Difference in Calibration Method between Head ID and Colorimetric Calibration
Conventional Head ID adjustment
In the printhead manufacturing process, ink discharge amount of
each head is actually measured to get individual characteristic
information. The information is stored on the printer as Head ID
to control the printhead.
Colorimetric Calibration
By printing and measuring a color chart, a variation from the
standard machine is obtained and registered as the correction
value (Color ID) to control the amount of ink droplets.
Before performing Colorimetric Calibration, the conventional Head ID must be preregistered. This is because the Head ID contains information to create a waveform to
drive the head, which is also required for the Colorimetric Calibration.
If you do not perform Colorimetric Calibration after performing Head ID adjustment,
the printer will be controlled only by the Head ID, which affects the following.
Ink Counter
The ink consumption counter table switches from the table for Color ID to the one for
Head ID. This change causes an ink out error to occur 2 to 5 percent earlier than when
using the table for Color ID. This varies depending on the print mode (dot type).
Color quality
Color quality will be at the same level as that of printers adjusted by the conventional
Head ID, and the same color quality as mass-produced printers cannot be maintained.

Be sure to start the measurement from the top side of the chart.
Be sure to measure colors at each row two times.
During color measurement, do not allow the calibrator to rub against unmeasured
patches on the chart.
Prevent the ruler and calibrator from coming off the chart sheet during color
measurement. Doing so will cause incorrect color measurement.
During color measurement, measure only the patches on the chart sheet. Do not measure
other parts such as the USB ID text string.
When there is an error possibility in measuring color, a warning mark ( ) appears at
the patch in question. In such case, make sure to measure the row that includes the patch
with a warning mark again. If the same warning mark appears again at the same point,
ignore the marking and perform the measurement in the next line.
If the number of scanned patches does not match the number of patches on a single row,
the cursor stops at that row, the error mark ( ) appears on all of the patches on that
row, and the following error message is displayed:
Color measuring by Eye-One calibrator has failed. Measure colors of the failed row

MAINTENANCE

Revision A
3.1 Overview
This section provides information to maintain the printer in its optimum condition.
3.1.1 Cleaning
Except for the printhead, there are no other mechanical parts or units that require periodic cleaning. However, if
need arises, clean the component observing the following instructions.
Instructions for cleaning
Exterior parts such as housing
Wipe dirt off with a soft clean cloth moistened with water. For glossy or transparent parts, use of unwoven cloth is
recommended to avoid scratching those parts.
Inside of the printer
Remove paper dust with a vacuum cleaner.
Rubber or plastic rollers such as an LD roller used to feed paper
If paper dust adhered to the rollers decreases the frictional force of the rollers and the rollers cannot properly feed
paper, wipe off the paper dust with a soft cloth moistened with diluted alcohol.
Do not use alcohol for cleaning the transparent parts. Doing so may cause them to get cloudy.
When wiping paper dust off the LD roller, be careful not to rub against the surface asperity.
To minimize the effect on the parts, use diluted alcohol such as 70% diluted ether.
After using alcohol for cleaning, make sure to wipe the part off with a soft dry dust-free
cloth to remove alcohol traces fully.
3.1.2 Lubrication
The type and amount of the grease used to lubricate the printer parts are determined based on the results of the
internal evaluations. Therefore, refer to 3.2 Lubrication Points and Instructions (p66) for the repairing
procedures below, and apply the specified type and amount of the grease to the specified part of the printer
mechanism.
