that act as paper supports when the cover is

open.)

5Feed the posterboard into the paper slot until it

meets resistance.

If you’re using stock more than 39 inches

long, load it long edge first (in landscape

orientation).

7Return the paper lever to the locked position.

Then close the front cover.

8Press the Pause button. The board feeds into

the printing position automatically and READY

appears on the control panel.

9Run your print job. After it is finished, the

lever back to the released position.

To avoid damaging the printer, never move

the paper lever during printing, or while the

If you notice banding or missing colors in your printouts,

the print head may need cleaning. First print a nozzle

check pattern to find out the condition of the print head.

Then run a cleaning cycle, if neccessary, and print another

check pattern to test the results.

1Load a sheet of coated ink jet paper (or roll paper)

in the printer.

2Press the SelecType button, then press the

button so that TEST PRINT appears on the

display.

INCH

3Press the button twice, then press Enter. The

nozzle check prints as shown:

If all the lines in the nozzle check are complete, with

no missing dots or gaps, the print head doesn’t need

cleaning.

If the pattern is missing dots or lines, as shown below,

you need to run a cleaning cycle.

4Make sure all the Ink Out lights on the printer’s

control panel are off. If an Ink Out light is

flashing or on, you need to replace the

corresponding ink cartridge instead.

5Press the Cleaning button and hold it for at least

3 seconds. The Pause light flashes as the printer

cleans its print head. The cleaning cycle takes

about a minute and does not use any paper.

To avoid damaging the printer, don’t turn it off

until the cleaning cycle is finished and the

Pause light has stopped flashing.

6When the Pause light goes off, follow steps

1 through 3 to run another nozzle check to make

sure the print head is clean.

If You Notice Banding...

If you still see banding after running a cleaning cycle, you

may need to align the print head as described in the

Printer Guide.

Banding can also be caused by selecting the incorrect

paper type in your printer software. Be sure to select the

paper you’re using in the EPSON printer software or in a

third-party RIP. If your paper is not listed, you can use the

printer’s SelecType menu to create a custom paper type

(see “Optimizing the Settings for Your Paper” in the

Printer Guide).

Before you begin a large print job, you should check

your ink levels. If one of your cartridges is low, you

can replace it before you start. Or you can wait until

the ink runs out, replace the cartridge, and then

continue the job without any loss of print quality.

Checking Ink Levels

The easiest way of checking ink levels is from

the control panel.

*If your printer uses EPSON UltraChrome™ ink, the black ink cartridges may be either Photo Black, Matte Black, or Light Black. See

your

Printer Guide

for more information on switching between black print modes.

Replacing Ink Cartridges

When one of the Ink Out lights is flashing and INK LOW is

displayed on the control panel, the corresponding cartridge is

nearly empty. Make sure you have the correct replacement

cartridge.

If you have a Stylus Pro 9600 that uses EPSON UltraChrome

ink, you can install any combination of 110 ml and 220 ml

cartridges. Unless you are planning to switch between black

print modes (see your Printer Guide for details), be sure to

replace the black ink cartridges with the same colors as you are

currently using.

When one of the Ink Out lights stays on and INK OUT

is displayed on the control panel, the cartridge is empty.

To replace the cartridge, first make sure the printer is on.

1Open the ink compartment cover.

2Raise the ink lever to the unlocked position.

5Hold the cartridge with the arrow mark pointing

toward the printer. Then insert the cartridge into

the slot. Don’t force it.

If you can’t insert the cartridge smoothly, you

may have the wrong cartridge. Check the

package and product code. If the Ink Out light

remains on after installing the cartridge, it may

not be inserted fully.

3Remove the empty ink cartridge from the printer.

Do not shake the empty cartridge, or ink may

escape. If ink gets on your hands, wash them

thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets in

your eyes, flush them immediately with water.

4Make sure the replacement cartridge is the correct

color, and remove it from its package.

If you’re using UltraChrome Ink, gently shake the

cartridge before installing it.

6Return the ink lever to its locked position.

7If you’re using 110 ml cartridges, close the ink

compartment cover. If you’re using 220 ml

cartridges, you’ll have to leave the cover open.

If you see the message WRONG INK

CARTRIDGE, you may have loaded an incorrect

black ink cartridge for the black ink mode

you’re currently in, or a cartridge containing

the wrong type of ink for your printer

(Photographic Dye or UltraChrome). Remove

any cartridges indicated by a red light on the

control panel, and replace them with the

correct cartridges.

the system during print head cleaning and other

maintenance procedures. It is time to replace it when the

Maintenance Tank light remains on. You can also check

its status as shown below:

Turn on the printer. Wait until READY or

PAPER OUT appears on the control panel.

Make sure the printer is on before you start.
