Loading Paper
You can print documents and photos on a variety of paper types and sizes. For
details, see page 6.
1. Open the paper support and pull up the extensions. Then open the output
tray, pull out the extensions, and raise the stopper.

3. Insert the paper, glossy or printable side up, against the right side and beneath
the tab. (Load letterhead or pre-printed paper top edge first.)
Always load paper short edge
first, even for landscape printing.
You can load up to 120 sheets of plain paper, 80 sheets of matte, 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. For example, your photos will look great printed on Epson Premium Photo
Paper Glossy (see page 6 for more information).
4. Slide the edge guide against the paper, but not too tightly.
Note:
For instructions on loading envelopes, see your on-screen Epson Information Center.

Maintaining Your All-in-One
Follow the instructions in this chapter for checking and cleaning the print head
nozzles and replacing ink cartridges. To align the print head, if necessary, see your
on-screen Epson Information Center.
Caution:
To keep your NX200 Series looking like new, don’t place anything on top of the cover or
use it as a writing surface. If you need to clean the cover, use only a soft, non-abrasive
microfiber-type cloth.
Checking the Print Head Nozzles
If your printouts are faint or have gaps in them, some of the nozzles in the print
head may be clogged or ink may be running low in one or more of the ink
cartridges. Follow the steps below to check the print head nozzles.
1. Load letter-size paper in the sheet feeder.
2. Hold down the y Stop button as you press the P On button. Hold down
both buttons until the P On light begins to flash, then release the buttons.
28 Maintaining Your All-in-One
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
3. Check the nozzle check pattern that prints to see if there are gaps in the lines.
Nozzles are clean
Nozzles need cleaning
4. If there are no gaps, the print head is clean. If there are gaps or the pattern is
faint, clean the print head as described in the next section.
Cleaning the Print Head
If print quality has declined and the nozzle check pattern 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 or low. You must replace
the cartridge first (see page 31).
1. Make sure the NX200 Series is on and the Bink light is off.
2. Hold down the y Stop button for at least 3 seconds until the P On light
starts flashing, then release the buttons. The NX200 Series runs a head
cleaning cycle, which takes about one minute.
Caution:
Never turn off the NX200 Series during head cleaning or you may damage it.
3. When the P On light stops flashing, run a nozzle check (as described on
page 28) to verify that the print head is clean.
4. If there are still gaps or lines, or the test patterns are faint, run another
cleaning cycle and check the nozzles again.
Note:
If you don’t see any improvement after cleaning the print head three times, turn off
your NX200 Series and wait at least six hours to let any dried ink soften. Then try
cleaning the print head 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 40.
If you do not use your NX200 Series often, it is a good idea to print a few pages at least
once a month to maintain good print quality.

Checking the Ink Cartridge Status
When the red Bink light starts flashing, a cartridge is low on ink. You can
continue printing until a cartridge needs replacement. When the red B ink light
stays on, you need to replace a cartridge.
Note:
You cannot print or copy when an ink cartridge is expended even if the other cartridges
are not expended. Replace any expended cartridges before printing or copying.
A window may also appear on your computer screen when you try to print when
ink is low. This window can optionally display ink offers and other updates
retrieved from an Epson website. On a Windows computer that is connected to
the Internet, you may see a screen asking if you want to receive these Epson offers
the first time you try to print when ink is low. Click Accept or Decline.
Note:
To disable checking for ink offers or updates from Epson, see the instructions in your
on-screen User’s Guide.
Tip:
If a cartridge is more than six months old, print quality may decline. If necessary, try
cleaning the print head (see page 29). If printouts still do not look their best, you may
need to replace the cartridge.
You can purchase genuine Epson ink and paper at Epson Supplies Central at
also purchase supplies from an Epson authorized reseller. To find the nearest one,
call 800-GO-EPSON (800-463-7766).

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.
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.
Replacing Ink Cartridges
Make sure you have a new ink cartridge before you begin. You must install new
cartridges immediately after removing the old ones.
Caution:
Do not open ink cartridge packages until you are ready to install the ink. Cartridges are
vacuum packed to maintain reliability.
Note:
Leave the expended cartridge installed until you have obtained a replacement, or the
ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out.
1. Turn on the NX200 Series.
Note:
If you need to change a cartridge before it’s low or expended (the B ink light is
neither on nor flashing), run the ink cartridge replacement utility. See the on-screen
User’s Guide for details.
2. Open the scanner.

5. Open the cartridge cover.
6. Squeeze the tab on the cartridge and lift it up. Dispose of it carefully. Do not
take the used cartridge apart or try to refill it.
Warning:
If ink gets on your hands, wash them thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets
into your eyes, flush them immediately with water. Keep ink cartridges out of the
reach of children.
7. Before you open the new cartridge package, shake it four or five times. Then
remove it from the package.

2½ minutes. When it’s finished, the P On light stops flashing and remains
on, and the B ink light goes out.
Caution:

B ink light flashes, press the y Stop button and press down all the cartridges
securely.
Note:

Problems and Solutions
Check the solutions below if you’re having trouble using your NX200 Series.
Printing and Copying Problems
■
Make sure your original is positioned in the front right corner of the glass. If
the edges are cropped, move your original away from the edges slightly.
■
Make sure your paper is loaded short edge first and is positioned against the
right side with the edge guide against its left side. Don’t load paper above the
arrow mark inside the edge guide.
■
Make sure the paper size settings are correct for the paper you loaded.
Paper Feeding Problems
■
■
■
If paper doesn’t feed, remove it from the sheet feeder. Flip through the stack to
separate the sheets a little. Then reload the paper against the right side, and
slide the left edge guide against the paper (but not too tightly).
Do not load too many sheets at once. Load up to 20 sheets of photo paper, 80
sheets of matte paper, or 120 sheets of plain paper. Load other special papers
one sheet at a time.
Do not load paper with holes punched in it.
38 Solving Problems

■
If paper is jammed, follow these steps:
1. Gently pull out jammed paper from the output tray or sheet feeder.
2. If paper is stuck inside, turn off the NX200 Series.
3. Lift the scanner, remove the jammed paper and torn pieces, lower the
scanner, and turn the NX200 Series back on.
Print Quality Problems
If you have any problems with the copy or print quality, try these solutions:
■
Make sure the document is placed flat against the document table glass and
the NX200 Series is not tilted or placed on an uneven surface.
■
■
■
Load the paper printable side up (usually the whiter, brighter, or glossy side).
Make sure your paper isn’t damp or curled.
Use a support sheet with special paper or load your paper one sheet at a time.
Remove sheets from the output tray so not too many collect at a time.
■
■
■
Make sure the type of paper you loaded matches the paper size and paper type
settings in your printer software (see page 25).
For the best print quality, use Epson special paper (see page 6) and genuine
Epson ink cartridges (see page 30).
If you notice light or dark bands across your printouts or they are too faint,
you may need to clean the print head (see page 29). This unclogs the nozzles
so they can deliver ink properly. Run a nozzle check as described on page 28
to see if the print head needs cleaning.
■
■
Clean the print head as described on page 29.
If you notice jagged vertical lines, you may need to align the print head. See
your User’s Guide for instructions.
■
■
The ink cartridges may be low on ink. Check your cartridge status (see
page 30) and replace cartridges, if necessary (see page 31).
If a dotted line appears in the image, clean the document table glass with a
soft, dry, lint-free cloth (paper towels are not recommended and may
permanently scratch the surface), or use a small amount of glass cleaner on a
soft cloth, if necessary. Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the glass.

Important Safety Instructions
Before using your Epson Stylus NX200 Series all-in-one, read and follow these safety
instructions:
■
■
■
Be sure to follow all warnings and instructions marked on the NX200 Series.
Use only the type of power source indicated on the NX200 Series label.
Use only the power cord that comes with the NX200 Series. Use of another cord may
cause fires or shock. Do not use the cord with any other equipment.
■
■
■
Place the NX200 Series near a wall outlet where the plug can be easily unplugged.
Do not let the power cord become damaged or frayed.
If you use an extension cord with the NX200 Series, make sure the total ampere
rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord’s
ampere rating. Also, make sure the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the
wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s ampere rating.
■
■
Avoid locations that are subject to rapid changes in heat or humidity, shocks or
vibrations, or dust.
Leave enough room around the NX200 Series for sufficient ventilation. Do not block
or cover openings in the NX200 Series case or insert objects through the slots.
■
■
Do not place the NX200 Series near a radiator or heating vent or in direct sunlight.
Place the NX200 Series on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond its base in all
directions. It will not operate properly if it is tilted or at an angle.
■
■
Make sure the back of the NX200 Series is at least 4 inches (10 cm) away from the
wall.
Do not open the scanner section while the NX200 Series is copying, printing, or
scanning.
■
■
Do not spill liquid on the NX200 Series.
Except as specifically explained in your documentation, do not attempt to service the
NX200 Series yourself.
Notices 41
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
■
Unplug the NX200 Series and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the
following conditions: if the power cord or plug is damaged; if liquid has entered the
product; if the product has been dropped or the case damaged; if the product does not
operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. Adjust only those
controls that are covered by the operating instructions.
■
■
When storing or transporting the NX200 Series, do not tilt it, stand it on its side, or
turn it upside down; otherwise ink may leak from the cartridges.
Do not use aerosol products that contain flammable gases inside or around the
NX200 Series. Doing so may cause fire.
Ink Cartridge Safety Instructions
■
Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.
■
Be careful when you handle used ink cartridges; there may be ink remaining around
the ink supply port. If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it gets
in your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If discomfort or vision problems
remain after a thorough flushing, see a doctor immediately.
■
■
Do not shake ink cartridges after opening their packages; this can cause leakage.
Do not put your hand inside the NX200 Series or touch any cartridges during
printing.
■
■
Install a new ink cartridge immediately after removing an expended one. Leaving
cartridges uninstalled can dry out the print head and may prevent the NX200 Series
from printing.
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 NX200 Series. 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.

Shipments to other locations will be made freight collect. You are responsible for securely
packaging the defective unit and returning it to Epson within five (5) working days of

another model of like kind and quality. Exchange products and parts assume the
remaining warranty period of your original product covered by this limited warranty.
What This Warranty Does Not Cover: This warranty covers only normal use in the
United States and Canada. Using this product for continuous production or similar high
duty purposes is not considered normal use; damage, maintenance or service from such use
will not be covered under this warranty. This warranty is not transferable. This warranty
does not cover any color change or fading of prints or reimbursement of materials or
services required for reprinting. This warranty does not cover damage to the Epson
product caused by parts or supplies not manufactured, distributed or certified by Epson.
This warranty does not cover ribbons, ink cartridges or third party parts, components, or
peripheral devices added to the Epson product after its shipment from Epson, e.g., dealer
or user-added boards or components. Epson is not responsible for warranty service should
the Epson label or logo or the rating label or serial number be removed or should the
