When you are done printing, remove the memory card by pulling it straight out of its slot. 12 Printing From a Memory Card (DX4800 Series only) Printing From a Digital Camera PictBridge and USB Direct Print let you print your photos by connecting your digital camera directly to the EPSON STYLUS DX. 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 camera's manual for details. Note: If your camera is not supported by this product, a double flashing P appears in the Copy window, and the b Error light flashes. For the DX4800 Series the Print All/DPOF/PictBridge light also flashes. Epson cannot guarantee the compatibility of any cameras. Depending on the EPSON STYLUS DX and the digital camera settings, there may be some combinations of paper type, size, and layout that are not supported. Some of the settings on your digital camera may not be reflected in the output. Connecting and Printing Make sure your photos meet the following requirements. File Format Image Size JPEG files 80 x 80 pixels to 9200 x 9200 pixels 1. Make sure your EPSON STYLUS DX is not printing from a computer. Note For EPSON STYLUS DX4800 Series users: Remove any memory cards from the EPSON STYLUS DX, then press the Memory Card button until the Print All/DPOF/PictBridge light comes on. 2. Load the type of paper you want to use (& Page 5). Load enough sheets for the number of photos you want to print. Select Plain Paper or Photo Paper (whichever you loaded). If you select Photo Paper, the photos print borderless, to the edge of the paper. Select A4, 10 × 15(4" × 6"), or 13 × 18(5" × 7") as the paper size. The EPSON STYLUS DX begins charging ink and the On light starts flashing. When it's finished, the On light stops flashing and remains on, and the B ink light goes out. Cleaning the Print Head If your printouts are unexpectedly light or faint, or you notice light or dark bands across them, you may need to clean the print head. This unclogs the nozzles so they can deliver ink properly. Run a nozzle check as described on page 16 to see if the print head needs cleaning. Note: Print head cleaning uses ink, so clean it only if the nozzle check indicates that it needs cleaning. If the B ink light comes on or flashes, you cannot clean the print head. In this case, replace the appropriate ink cartridge first. (& Page 14) c Caution: Never turn off the EPSON STYLUS DX while the On light is flashing as this wastes ink. 1. 2. Make sure the EPSON STYLUS DX is on and the B ink light is off. Hold down the B ink button for 3 seconds until the On light starts flashing. The EPSON STYLUS DX runs a head cleaning cycle and the On light flashes. Note: 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. c Caution: Checking the Print Head Nozzles and Ink If your printouts are faint or have gaps in them, some of the nozzles in the print head may be clogged, or you may be running out of ink. Follow the steps below to check the print head nozzles and ink levels. [. . . ] Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions. When storing or transporting the EPSON STYLUS DX, do not tilt it, stand it on its side, or turn it upside down; otherwise ink may leak from the cartridge. 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. [. . . ]
