Problems and Solutions
Here are some basic troubleshooting tips if you have any
problems setting up your EPSON Stylus Scan, installing
software, printing, scanning, or copying, or getting good print
and scan quality.
Since copying involves both printing and scanning, look for
copy problems in both “Solving Problems with Printing and

that the outlet is working and provides sufficient power.
The printer started making noise after you installed the
ink cartridges.
■ The first time you install ink cartridges, the printer must
charge its ink delivery system for a few minutes. Please
wait until charging is finished (the
Operate light stops
flashing) before you turn off the printer. Otherwise, you
will waste ink.
■ Make sure the ink cartridge clamps are locked down
completely and that no packing material remains in the
printer.
