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
8. When disassembling or assembling this product, make sure to wear gloves to avoid injuries from metal parts

After all required adjustments are complete, use the “Final check pattern print” function
to print all adjustment patterns for final check. If you find a problem with the printout
patterns, carry out the adjustment again.
When replacing the Main Board and the Printer Mechanism (Frame Base Assy) at the
same time, the adjustment should be made after performing the initial setting.
The table items and marks used in the “Required Adjustment List” provided on the
following pages have the following meanings.
• “O” indicates that the adjustment must be carried out.
• “---” indicates that the adjustment is not required.
• The “Mechanism Adjustment” should be performed just after reinstalling or
reassembling the part or unit. (See Table 3-1 Required Adjustment List (Mechanism
adjustment) (p280).)
• The “Adjustments using the Adjustment Program” need to be performed after
reassembling the printer completely. (See Table 3-2 Required Adjustment List
(Adjustment using the Adjustment Program) (1/2) (p281) to Table 3-3 Required
Adjustment List (Adjustment using the Adjustment Program) (2/2) (p282).)
If you have removed or replaced multiple parts, make sure to check the required
adjustments for the all parts. And when multiple adjustments must be carried out, be
sure to carry them out in the order given in the “Priority” row.
Note "*": If Ink tube is not disconnect from the Printhead, this process is not needed
Note: After the mechanism adjustment is performed, make sure to execute the adjustment using the Adjustment Program.

Modification of the thickness gauges
The Print head of this printer has an integral structure of the Print head Cover and Print
head nozzle surface. Therefore, if the thickness gauge touches the nozzle surface in the
same way as performed in the traditional procedure, the nozzle surface may be damaged.
When performing the PG Adjustment or checking the platen gap, make sure to apply
Teflon tape (thickness: 0.08 mm) on all the thickness gauge (1.00 mm) used for the
adjustment or check in advance.
Use commercially available Teflon tape of 0.08 mm in thickness.
When applying Teflon tape on the thickness gauges, make sure no bubbles or foreign
material remain under the tape.
Application procedure of Teflon tape
1. Clean the surfaces of the thickness gauge using alcohol, and make sure no dirt or contamination remains on the
surfaces.

Valve C be replaced from the hole on the rear.)
Valve B
Regulator
Do not touch or press the regulator located under the regulator protection plate of the Ink
Leak Measurement Jig.
The Ink Leak Measurement Jig applies pressure by sending air using a syringe into the
ink path, and detects the variation of pressure in the ink path between the self-sealing
valve in the Printhead and the ink supply holes of the ink cartridges to check the
presence of ink leakage. If air leak occurs in the Ink Leak Measurement Jig, the leak
check itself cannot be done. Therefore, before performing the leak check, perform the
test air leak from the Ink Leak Measurement Jig itself. (The air leak test from Leak
Measurement Jig itself is possible by closing the connection port of the Leak Check
Adapter with a finger.)
The ink leak check should be done with the ink tubes secured with the tube clamps and
the CR Cover attached after the joint section of the Print head and the Ink Supply Unit
has been secured. (See.” Ink Supply Unit (p125)“)
Preparation
Tools
Ink Tube, CY (Part Code: 163329500 or 163554100)
Joint Tube (Outside diameter: 4mm, Inside Diameter: 2.5mm) * It is band led to Ink Leak Measurement Jig.
Banding Band (Width: 2 mm ~ 5mm) * Commercially available goods
Seal Supply Hole Assy (Part code: 123219100)
Making Procedure
1. Cut out the needle connection portion of the Ink Tube,CY
from 7 to 10mm
4. Install the Seal Supply Hole Assy to the Ink Tube, CY.
(Make sure to install the Seal Supply Hole Assy in the correct direction.)
.
OK NG
Make sure to clamp the banding band by hand, and do not use the industrial tool when
clamping the banding band.
The Seal Supply Hole Assy deteriorates by repeating the installation and removal of the
Ink Leak Check Adapter.
If the air leak is occurred frequently in the Ink Leak Check, replace the packing, and
performing the Ink Leak check again.
Checking procedure
Make sure to pressurize the pressure of the specified value (48±2Kpa), and do not
pressurize the pressure of more than specified value.
If you pressurized the pressure of the more than the specified value, it can not lower the
pressure by pulling the syringe.
(Because, the ink supply Jig has valve to prevent back flow of the ink. If you lower the
pressure by pulling the syringe, the valve is closed and can not perform the reliable test)
If you pressurized the pressure of the more than the specified value, reassemble the
connection parts of print Head and the Ink supply Unit to lower the pressure of the Ink
tube of the Ink Supply Unit.
Checking procedure of the “(Current tool) Ink Leak Check Measurement Jig”
1. Turn each valve of the Ink Leak Measurement Jig as follows:
Valve A: Open
Valve B: Open
2. Connect the Ink Leak Check Adapter to the Ink Leak Measurement Jig.
3. Install the Ink Leak Check Adapter into the Ink Supply Unit of the printer to check.
Make sure not to open the period of the Ink Charge from the Ink Leak Check for three
days or more.
After the Ink Leak Check, perform the Head Cleaning (CL1) before the initial charge.
If you need open the period of the Ink Charge from the Ink Leak Check for three days or
more, make sure to disconnect the connect part of Print Head and the Ink Supply Unit.
Additionally, make sure to perform the Ink Leak Check again if the Ink Charge
performs.

4.1 Overview
This section provides information to maintain the printer in its optimum condition.
4.1.1 Cleaning
Except for the print head, 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/Pickup 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.
Instructions for cleaning ink stains
Wipe the stains off with a cloth wrung out of 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/Pickup 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.
4.1.2 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 "4.2 Lubrication Points and Instructions (p324)" for the repairing
procedures below, and apply the specified type and amount of the grease to the specified part of the printer
