Error Messages Solutions
Recovery Mode The printer has started in recovery mode because the firmware update
failed. Follow the steps below to try to update the firmware again.
1. Connect the AC adapter to the printer, and then connect the computer
and the printer with a USB cable. (During recovery mode, you cannot
update the firmware over a network connection.)
2. Visit your local Epson website for further instructions.
* In some print cycles a very small amount of surplus ink may be collected in the ink pad. To prevent ink leakage from the pad, the
product is designed to stop printing when the pad has reached its limit. Whether and how often this is required varies according to
the number of pages you print, the type of material that you print, and the number of cleaning cycles that the printer performs. The
need for replacement of the pad does not mean that your printer has ceased to operate in accordance with its specifications. The
printer will advise you when the pad requires replacing and this can only be performed by an authorized Epson Service provider.
The Epson warranty does not cover the cost of this replacement.
