Memory Stick/PRO, SD/MMC and xD-Picture Card shares the same slot.
When cards are inserted in the two slots at once, the slot which will be accessed first is determined according to the priority shown in the table.
To select a card that has been inserted in a non-active slot, first remove the card in the active slot.
In memory card direct printing mode, the image files in the active slot are valid and have assigned frame numbers. The number of images will not change if a card is inserted in another
nonselected slot.
When the card inserted in the slot is accessed from the PC, only one drive is displayed at a time as a removable disk* and only the card that is in the active slot can be accessed via the
removable disk. A card that has been inserted into a non-selected slot cannot be accessed.
(This is for Windows. For Macintosh, the card in the active slot will be mounted on the desktop.)
Does not support 5V type of memory cards.
When a memory card is being accessed, do not touch the memory card.
For detailed information on the supported file system and formatting the memory card, refer to 1.7.2 Memory Card Direct Print Function (p.22).

Based on the circuit mounted on the previous model Stylus PHOTO RX585/595/
610, this printer is equipped with an EEPROM and a reset circuit individually to
reduce the cost. This is achieved by removing a complex RTC circuit that is
mounted on the previous model.
With the increase in printing speed, the Case Open Sensor is newly added.

2.3 Banding Reduction System (BRS)/ Paper Feed Profile Correction (PFP)
Overview
To ensure high-speed printing and high print quality, this printer is provided with the Banding Reduction System (BRS) and Paper Feed Profile Correction (PFP) function, which are
outlined below:
Table 2-6. Outline of Banding Reduction System and Paper Feed Profile Correction Function
Supported Printing Mode
Paper Type
Outline
EAI
BRS
Conventional models perform overlapping printing (two-pass or fourpass printing) to reduce banding for ensuring high print quality.
However, the printer provided with the Banding Reduction System
corrects the dot generation rate (amount of settled ink) for each raster,
and performs one-pass printing. This function ensures both high print
quality (reduction of banding) and high-speed printing.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Revision B
3.1 Overview
There must be no vibration generating source placed in contact with this Unit.
With Stylus Photo RX585/595/610, almost all troubles can be coped with by following
the instructions given on EPSON Status Monitor 3 (when connected to the PC) or on
the LCD.
Check the inside of the Unit, and remove foreign matters, if any, such as paper
clips, staples, bits of paper, paper dust or toner.
Once an error occurs, the EPSON Status Monitor 3 will appear as a pop-up window
on the screen of the host PC. It will show details of how to cope with the trouble. In
almost all cases, the user can recover the unit from the error, provided that the user
follows the instructions indicated on the pop-up window.
In addition, the Users Manual for EPSON Stylus Photo RX585/595/610 describes
detailed steps to be taken for recovery from typical errors.
The power supply voltage must be within the specification limits. (Measure
the voltage at the wall outlet.)
The POWER CORD must be free from damage, short circuit or breakage, or
miswiring in the POWER CORD.
The Unit should not be located in a place where it can be exposed to too high
or low temperature, too high or low humidity, or abrupt temperature change.
The Unit should not be located near waterworks, near humidifiers, near
heaters or near flames, in a dusty atmosphere or in a place where the Unit can
be exposed to blast from an air conditioner.
The Unit should not be located in a place where volatile or inflammable gases
are produced.
The Unit should not be located in a place where it can be exposed to direct
rays of the sun.
The Unit must be placed on a strong and steady level table (without an
inclination larger than 5 degrees).

Things, if not strictly observed, that could result in injury or loss of life are described
under the heading Warning.
Precautions for any disassembly or assembly procedures are described under the

When you have to remove any units or parts that are not described in this chapter, refer
to the exploded diagrams in the appendix.
When the Main Board is to be replaced, make a copy of the EEPROM data.
When the Carriage Assy is to be moved out of its home position, locate it at a
position other than the home position before starting disassembly by turning the
power ON and turning it OFF timely. (See 4.1.5 How to Unlock the Carriage
(p.61))
W A R N IN G
Make the following preparations before disassembling the Stylus Photo RX585/595/610:
As soon as the repaired product has been returned to the user, there may be a case
a maintenance call occurs because of the expiration of the life of a service part.
Avoid such a case, if possible, as follows: Check the maintenance counter for
regularly replaced parts before disassembly. If the life of any part is found almost
expired, communicate with the user to that effect. If the user's consent is obtained,
replace also the relevant service parts with new ones.

The thickness gauge to be used must be free from dust and dirt
and from deformation. Be sure to clean it before use.
Take care that the Print Head is not soiled or scratched.
To ensure high accuracy of adjustment, install new ink
cartridges in the carriage, and move the carriage right and left
by pulling the belt without holding the carriage.
Make this adjustment after installing the mechanism unit in the
Housing Lower. (Install the Linear Scale after adjustment.)
Refer to 4.2.8 Printer Mechanism (p.76)
With EPSON Stylus Photo RX585/RX595/RX610, four stages
of PG setting are available by means of the APG Mechanism.
However, make this adjustment with the mechanism in the
minimum PG position (PG-: 1.2 mm).

Move the carriage to the center of the platen, and place 1.15 mm thickness gauge
on the left aligning its left edge with the second rib of the Front Paper Guide. And
place another 1.15 mm thickness gauge on the right aligning its right edge with the
rightmost rib of the Front Paper Guide. (Fig. 5-9)
NOTE: The thickness gauge must not be set over the leftmost rib on the Front
Paper Guide.
5.
Pull the Timing Belt to move the carriage to the left end.
6.
If the carriage comes in contact with the gauge, adjust the Left Parallelism Bush to
raise the carriage to a position where the Printhead does not come in contact with
gauge.
7.
Pull the Timing Belt to move the carriage to the right end.
8.
If the carriage comes in contact with the gauge, adjust the Right Parallelism Bush
to raise the carriage to a position where the Printhead does not come in contact
with gauge.
9.
Move the carriage to the middle area of the platen, and place 1.3 mm thickness
gauges at the left and right ends of the platen.

6.1.3 Lubrication
The types and amount of grease to be applied have been determined based on the
evaluation at factory. Accordingly, definitely use a suitable volume of designated
grease to the designated points for repair and maintenance of the product. Designated
types of grease and application points are as shown below.
Left side of

Type
1x3
C A U T IO N
Never use any grease other than those specified, since such
grease can affect adversely the mechanical life and functions of
this product or result in damage to this equipment.
As the suitable volume is also designated based on evaluation
result, avoid applying any undesignated volume.
Do not lubricate any part other than those specified. Take care
that no grease adheres to any paper transport parts, such as
rollers, or the Printhead; otherwise, the print quality may drop.
