Digital Camera Requirements
Make sure your camera and photos meet the following requirements.
Direct printing compatibility File format Image size PictBridge or USB DIRECT-PRINT

JPEG pixels to pixels

Make sure your camera is turned on and use it to select the photos you want to print, adjust any necessary settings, and print your photos. See your cameras manual for details.
If your camera is not compatible with PictBridge or USB DIRECT-PRINT, a double flashing P appears in the k [Copies] window, and the b Error light and the f/e/DPOF [Print All/DPOF/PictBridge] light flash. Epson cannot guarantee the compatibility of any camera. Depending on the settings on this product and the digital camera, some combinations of paper type, size, and layout may not be supported. Some of the settings on your digital camera may not be reflected in the output.
You can keep the operation of the product at its best by performing the procedures described in this chapter. Also, this section includes instructions on how to replace ink cartridges and transport the product.
Ink cartridge precautions
If ink gets on your hands, wash them thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If you still have discomfort or vision problems, see a doctor immediately.

Replacing Ink Cartridges

When the B ink light starts flashing, one or more cartridges are low on ink. Make sure you have replacement cartridges. When the B ink light stays on, you need to replace the appropriate cartridges.
If a cartridge is more than six months old, print quality may decline. If necessary, try cleaning the print head (& Cleaning the print head on page 20). If printouts still do not look their best, you may need to replace the cartridge.
Checking the ink cartridge status
You can also check the ink cartridge status when checking the print head (& Checking the print head on page 20). You can see the percentage of ink left in each cartridge on a printed test pattern. When your ink starts getting low, make sure you have replacement cartridges available. You cannot print if a cartridge is expended.
Epson cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-genuine ink. If non-genuine ink cartridges are installed, the ink cartridge status will not be displayed.
To avoid damaging the product, never move the print head by hand. When an ink cartridge is expended, you cannot continue copying or printing even if the other cartridges still contain ink. Leave the expended cartridge installed until you have obtained a replacement. Otherwise the ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out. An IC chip on each ink cartridge monitors the amount of ink used from the cartridge. Cartridges are usable even if they are removed and reinserted. However, some ink is consumed each time cartridges are inserted because the printer automatically checks their reliability. For maximum ink efficiency, only remove an ink cartridge when you are ready to replace it. Ink cartridges with low ink status cannot be used when reinserted.
Removing and installing ink cartridges
Make sure you have a new ink cartridge before you begin. Once you start replacing a cartridge, you must complete all the steps in one session.
Do not open the ink cartridge package until you are ready to install it in the printer. The cartridge is vacuum packed to maintain its reliability.
Purchasing ink cartridges
Use these Epson ink cartridges within six months of installing them and before the expiration date.
Color Part Number DX5000 series Black Cyan Magenta Yellow T0711 T0712 T0713 T0714 CX4900 series T0731 T0732 T0733 T0734
Make sure the product is on. Make sure the document cover is closed, then lift up the scanner unit.
Do not lift up the scanner unit when the document cover is open.

12. Close the scanner unit.
Do not remove or tear the label on the cartridge; otherwise, ink will leak.
13. Press the B ink button. The product begins charging ink and the On light starts flashing. This takes about one minute. When it has finished, the On light stops flashing and remains on, and the B ink light goes out.
Place the new ink cartridge into the holder and push it down until it clicks into place.
Do not turn off the product during ink charging as this will waste ink.
10. Replace any other ink cartridges that need to be replaced. 11. Close the ink cartridge cover and press it until it clicks into place.
If the B ink light stays on (not flashing), the ink cartridge may not be installed correctly. Press the B ink button again and reinstall the ink cartridge until it clicks into place.
Checking and Cleaning the Print Head
If your printouts are unexpectedly light, colors are missing, or you see light or dark lines across the page, you may need to clean the print head. This clears the print head nozzles, which can become clogged if you do not use the product for a long time.
We recommend that you turn on the product at least once a month to maintain good print quality.
Make sure the product is on and the B ink light is off. Hold down the B ink button for three seconds until the On light starts flashing. A head cleaning cycle begins and the On light stays flashing.
Never turn off the product while head cleaning is in progress. You may damage it.
When the On light stops flashing, print a nozzle check pattern to check the results (& Checking the print head on page 20). If there are still gaps or the test patterns are faint, run another cleaning cycle and check the nozzles again.
If you do not see any improvement after cleaning three or four times, turn off the product and wait overnight. This lets any dried ink soften. Then try cleaning the print head again. If quality still does not improve, one of the ink cartridges may be old or damaged and needs to be replaced (& Replacing Ink Cartridges on page 17).

Checking the print head

You can print a nozzle check pattern to see if any print head nozzles are clogged, or to check the results after cleaning the print head. 1. 2. 3. Turn off the product. Load A4-size plain paper (& page 8). While holding down the B ink button, press and hold down the P On button for about three seconds. The product turns on and prints a test pattern. It also shows the percentage of ink left in each cartridge: 4. Examine the nozzle check pattern you printed. Each staggered line should be solid, with no gaps, as shown.

Transporting This Product
If you need to move the product some distance, you need to prepare it for transportation in its original box or one of a similar size.
When storing or transporting the product, avoid tilting it, placing it vertically, or turning it upside down; otherwise ink may leak from the cartridges. Leave the ink cartridges installed; removing the cartridges for transportation may damage the product.
Remove all paper from the sheet feeder and make sure the product is off. Open the scanner unit and make sure the print head is in the home position on the right. Secure the ink cartridge holder to the case with tape as shown.
Close the scanner unit. Unplug the power cord from the outlet, then disconnect the USB cable from your computer. Close the paper support, the feeder guard, and the output tray.

Both Sides of the Page Can Be Printed on with Epson T0711 Black Pigment Ink

Overview:

It what way does pigment-based ink vary from dye-based ink? Dye-based ink is more cost efficient for the reason that it is easier to manufacture. They contain more brilliant colours. Because they are made with liquid, dye-based inks could smudge, spread through paper and also dissolve if combined with liquids. In contrast, pigment-based ones cost a little more due to the fact that they are not easy to create They typically hold resins which make them last longer. However, pigment-based inks display an effect called metamerism wherein colours appear differently under different lighting conditions. However, Epson, the world's leading innovative company on printers and inks have developed a special pigment based ink that has transcended these faults using DuraBrite? pigment ink technology. Allow us to demonstrate these more through taking a look at an ink which employs such technology, the "Cheetah Ink", Epson T0711.
Rating: 4.5 of a possible 5.0 stars
T0711 Black Pigment Ink Key Features:
Smudge, scratch, fade and water-resistant, the Epson T0711 black pigment ink is controlled by DuraBrite? pigment ink technology. It employs microencapsulation in which the droplets are inside an unique resin and won't soak up into the paper the same way as dye-based inks. They keep on the surface of the paper fibres resulting in more intense blacks as well as brilliant colours. Photos and images remain lively at the same time text remains precise and clear.
Charge for T0711 Black Pigment Ink: Genuine ink cartridges cost ?10.42 (VAT inc) while
T0711 compatible ink costs ?3.33 (plus shipping)

Product Description:

You can depend on receiving great output when using the Epson T0711 particularly if printing out labels, greeting cards, resumes, web pages, reports, menus, and so forth on ordinary paper. However, that's not all, the T0711 is, in addition, able to produce great photos on glossy photo papers and iron-on transfers, glossy self-adhesive sheets and OHP Transparency films.
