You can load up to 100 sheets of plain paper, or 20 sheets of photo paper.  
Load other special papers one sheet at a time.  
Note:  
The type of paper you choose affects the way your printout looks. If you are just  
making a copy or printing a rough draft, plain paper is fine. However, for the best  
results, you’ll want to use one of Epson’s special ink jet papers designed for your  
printer (see “Using Special Papers” for more information).  
4. Slide the edge guide against the paper, but not too tightly.  
Note:  
For details on paper and instructions on loading envelopes, see your online User’s

Cleaning the Print Head  
If print quality has declined and the nozzle check indicates clogged nozzles, you  
can clean the print head. Print head cleaning uses ink, so clean it only if necessary.  
Note:  
You cannot clean the print head if an ink cartridge is expended, and may not be able to  
clean it when a cartridge is low. You must replace the cartridge first (see page 38).  
1. Load letter-size plain paper in the sheet feeder.  
2. Press the Copy/Fax button, then press Menu  
.
3. Press u or d to select Maintenance, then press OK  
.
4. Press u or d to select Head Cleaning, then  
press the x Color button.  
Cleaning lasts around 1 minute. When it’s  
finished, you see a message on the display screen.  
Caution:  
Never turn off the printer during a cleaning cycle or you may damage it.  
5. Press  
1
to finish or  
2
to run a nozzle check and confirm that the print head is  
clean.  
Note:  
If you don’t see any improvement after cleaning the print head three times, turn off  
your NX300/305 Series and wait at least six hours to let any dried ink soften. Then try  
printing again. If quality does not improve, one of the ink cartridges may need to be  
replaced. If that doesn’t help, contact Epson as described on page 44.  
If you do not use your NX300/305 Series often, it is a good idea to print a few pages at  
least once a month to maintain good print quality.

Purchasing Epson Ink Cartridges  
You can purchase genuine Epson ink and paper at Epson Supplies Central at  
www.epson.com/ink3 (U.S. sales) or www.epson.ca (Canadian sales). You can  
also purchase supplies from an Epson authorized reseller. To find the nearest one,  
call 800-GO-EPSON (800-463-7766).  
Purchase genuine Epson cartridges and use them within six months of installing  
them and before the expiration date on the cartridge box. When you purchase new  
ink, use the following Epson ink cartridge numbers:  
Ink color  
Black  
Moderate use  
Standard capacity High capacity  
88

Note:  
We recommend that you use genuine Epson cartridges and do not refill them. The use  
of other products may affect your print quality and could result in printer damage.  
Yields vary considerably based on images printed, print settings, paper type, frequency  
of use, and temperature. For print quality, a small amount of ink remains in the cartridge  
after the “replace cartridge” indicator comes on. The printer ships with full cartridges  
and part of the ink from the first cartridges is used for priming the printer.  
For best printing results, use up a cartridge within six months of opening the package.  
Store ink cartridges in a cool, dark place. If cartridges have been exposed to cold  
temperatures, allow them to warm up to room temperature for at least 3 hours before  
using them.

ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out.  
1. Turn on the NX300/305 Series.  
If an ink cartridge is low or expended, you see a  
message on the NX300/305 Series display  
screen indicating which color to replace. Press

immediately with water. Keep ink cartridges out of the  
reach of children.

Printing and Copying Problems  
Make sure your paper is loaded printable side up (usually the whiter, brighter,  
or glossy side). Load it short edge first, and against the right edge guide. Don’t  
load paper above the arrow mark inside the left edge guide.  
Make sure the type of paper you loaded matches the paper size and paper type  
settings on the control panel when copying or faxing, or in your printer  
software when printing from your computer (see page 30).

Use the Automatic Document Feeder to fax or scan legal-size documents, but  
not to copy them. Letter-size paper is automatically selected for copying. If  
you copy a legal-size document, your image will be cropped.  
Make sure your original is positioned against the back left corner of the  
scanner glass. If the edges are cropped, move your original away from the  
edges slightly.  
Paper Feeding Problems  
If paper doesn’t feed correctly when printing, remove the paper and flip through  
the stack to separate the sheets. Reload the paper against the right side and slide  
the edge guide against it. Do not load too many sheets at once. Load up to 20  
sheets of photo paper or 100 sheets of plain paper. Load other special papers one  
sheet at a time.  
If paper has jammed, follow these steps:  
1. Gently pull out jammed paper from the output tray or sheet feeder.  
2. If paper is stuck inside, press the P On button to turn off the NX300/305  
Series. Then lift the scanner, remove the jammed paper and torn pieces, close  
the scanner, and turn the NX300/305 Series back on.  
If documents don’t feed correctly in the Automatic Document Feeder, make sure  
the corners of the paper are not bent, folded, or curled up. Do not load more than  
30 sheets of letter- or 10 sheets of legal-size paper at a time. If documents have  
jammed:  
1. Open the ADF cover and remove any jammed paper.  
Caution:  
Do not try to remove the paper without opening the ADF cover first, or you could  
damage the mechanism.

Faxing Problems  
Make sure the recipient’s fax machine is turned on and working.  
Make sure the LINE port on the NX300/305 Series is connected to a  
telephone wall jack. Verify that the telephone wall jack works by connecting a  
phone to it.  
If the line has static, press Setup, select Fax Settings, select  
Communication, and turn off the V.34 and ECM (Error Correction Mode)  
settings.  
If the NX300/305 Series is connected to a DSL phone line, you must have a  
DSL filter connected to the phone jack. Contact your DSL provider for the  
necessary filter.  
If you answer the phone and hear a fax tone and the call disconnects when you  
hang up, make sure the phone is connected to the EXT. port on the NX300/  
305 Series (see page 14).  
Print Quality Problems  
For the best print quality, use genuine Epson paper (see page 6) and ink  
cartridges (see page 37).  
If you notice light or dark bands across your printouts or they are too faint,  
run a nozzle check (see page 34) to see if the print head needs cleaning.  
If you notice jagged vertical lines, you may need to align the print head. See  
the online User’s Guide for instructions.  
The ink cartridges may be low on ink. Check your cartridge status (see  
page 36) and replace cartridges, if necessary (see page 38).  
If you’re copying, place the document flat against the scanner glass.  
Clean the scanner glass with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth (paper towels are not  
recommended), or use a small amount of glass cleaner on a soft cloth, if  
necessary. Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the glass.

If you remove an ink cartridge for later use, protect the ink supply area from dirt and  
dust and store it in the same environment as the product. Note that there is a valve in  
the ink supply port, making covers or plugs unnecessary, but care is needed to prevent  
the ink from staining items that the cartridge touches. Do not touch the ink cartridge  
ink supply port or surrounding area. Do not store the cartridge upside down.

FCC Compliance Statement  
For United States Users  
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by  
the ACTA. On the back side is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC  
registration number and the ringer equivalence number (REN) for this equipment. You  
must, upon request, provide this information to your local telephone company. The  
information associated with the services the equipment is to be connected are REN: 0.1B,  
Jack type: RJ-11C.  
The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices that you may connect to your  
telephone line and still have all of those devices ring when your telephone number is  
called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line  
should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that you may connect  
to your line, you may want to contact your local telephone company to determine the  
maximum REN for your calling area. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN  
for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:  
BKMFA01BC362A. The digits represented by 01 are the REN without a decimal point  
(e.g., 01 is a REN of 0.1). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on the label.  
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company.  
Connection to party lines is subject to state tariffs.  
Should this equipment cause harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may  
discontinue your service temporarily. If possible they will notify you in advance that  
temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advanced notice isn’t  
practical, the telephone company will notify you as soon as possible. You will be informed  
of your right to file a complaint with the FCC. The telephone company may make  
changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the proper  
functioning of your equipment. If they do, you will be notified in advance to give you an  
opportunity to maintain uninterrupted telephone service.  
This product is not intended to be repaired. If you experience trouble with this  
equipment, please contact:
