FAQs

How do I fill the ink tanks?

Open the ink tank cover, remove the ink bottle cap, and carefully insert the ink bottle nozzle into the corresponding tank. The bottles are designed to prevent overfilling and spillage. Let the ink flow until the tank is full, then remove the bottle.

What kind of paper can I use?

The printer supports various paper types, including plain paper, envelopes, and photo paper. Refer to the printer's specifications for recommended paper weights and sizes.

How do I scan a document?

Place the document on the flatbed scanner or in the ADF. Select the scan option from the printer's control panel or from your computer's software. Choose your desired settings (resolution, file format) and initiate the scan.

How do I print from my smartphone?

Install the Epson iPrint app on your smartphone or use Apple AirPrint if you have an iOS device. Ensure your smartphone and printer are connected to the same Wi-Fi network, then select the print option from within your document or photo app.

How do I clean the print head?

Navigate to the maintenance or setup menu on the printer's control panel. Select the print head cleaning option and follow the on-screen instructions. You may need to run this cleaning cycle a few times if the print quality is poor.

What should I do if the ink levels are low?

When the ink levels are low, the printer will display a warning. Purchase the correct replacement ink bottles and follow the instructions to refill the corresponding ink tanks.

What is the warranty period?

The Epson EcoTank ET-5805 typically comes with a standard warranty, which is usually two years. Check the documentation that came with your printer for the specifics of your warranty.

Troubleshooting

Printer not printing.

Check the power connection, ensure the printer is turned on, and verify the connection (Wi-Fi or USB). Check for paper jams and low ink levels.

Poor print quality.

Run a print head cleaning cycle from the printer's menu. Check the paper type settings and use appropriate paper. Ensure the print heads are aligned correctly.

Printer not connecting to Wi-Fi.

Ensure the Wi-Fi network is working, and the printer is within range. Re-enter the Wi-Fi password if necessary. Restart the printer and your router.

Paper jams.

Carefully remove any jammed paper, ensuring no small pieces remain. Check the paper type and loading to ensure they are correct.

Slow printing speeds.

Ensure the printer drivers are up to date. Check the print settings and select draft or economy mode for faster printing. Reduce the print resolution if necessary.
