Epson ET-2720 - All-In-Ones Printer Quick Installation Guide

Unpack

Note: Do not open the ink bottles until you are ready to fill the ink tanks. The ink bottles are vacuum packed to maintain reliability.
Remove all protective materials from the product.

Note: Do not turn on the product yet.

Fill ink tanks

Keep the ink bottles out of the reach of children and do not drink the ink.

This product requires careful handling of ink. If ink spills, wipe it off immediately with a damp towel to avoid permanent stains. If ink gets on your clothes or belongings, it may not come off.
Note:

• Epson cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-genuine ink.
• Use the ink bottles included with the printer to set up the product. Part of the ink will be used to charge the print head. These bottles may print fewer pages compared with replacement ink bottles.

1. Open the ink tank cover and the cap for the black ink tank.
   
   Note: Refer to the color-coded sticker on the ink tank unit to identify the color of each tank.
2. Unpack the black (BK) ink bottle. Hold the ink bottle upright and slowly turn the bottle cap to remove it.
   
   
   Do not shake or squeeze the ink bottle. Do not touch the top of the ink bottle after its cap is removed.
3. Place the top of the ink bottle on the filling port, then slowly stand the bottle upright to insert it, as shown.
   
   Note: Do not force the bottles into position; they are keyed for each color.
4. Wait for the ink to fill the tank. Do not squeeze the bottle.
   
   Note: Ink flows into the tank and stops automatically when the ink tank is filled to the upper line. If ink does not flow from the bottle, lift and reinsert the bottle.
   
5. When the ink tank is full, remove the ink bottle and securely close it with the bottle cap.
   
   Note: Do not leave the ink bottle inserted; otherwise the bottle may be damaged or ink may leak. If any ink remains in the bottle, store the bottle upright and top off the ink tank after completing initial setup.
6. Close the black ink tank cap.
   
7. Repeat the previous steps for the other colors.
   
   
   After setup, periodically inspect the ink levels to ensure they do not fall below the lower lines. Prolonged use when any level is lower than the line could damage the product.
8. Close the ink tank cover.
   
9. Connect the power cord to the back of the product and to an electrical outlet.
   
   
   Do not connect to your computer yet.
10. Raise the control panel, then press the power button to turn on the product. The power light flashes.
    
11. Select your language.
    Note: You can change this setting later using the product's control panel.
12. When instructed to see the Start Here sheet, press and hold the help button for 5 seconds.
    
13. Press the start button to start ink charging.
    Note: Ink charging takes about 10 minutes. When the power light stops flashing, ink charging is complete. Once initial setup of the printer is complete, you can top off the ink tanks with any remaining ink.
    
    
    Do not unplug or turn off the product, or open the inner cover while the product is charging or you'll waste ink.
    
14. Press the OK button to proceed with initial setup.
15. Follow the on-screen instructions to adjust the print quality of your product.
    Note:
    • You need to load paper before you can adjust the print quality. See "Load paper" below for details.
    • Select Adjust Later if you want to adjust the print quality later.

Load paper

2. Slide the edge guides all the way out.
   
3. Load paper, glossy or printable side up and short edge first, in the middle of the rear paper feed slot.
   
   Note: Make sure the paper is under the mark inside the edge guides.
4. Slide the edge guides against the paper, but not too tightly.
   
5. Close the feeder guard.
   
6. Pull out the output tray, then raise the paper stopper.
