Cleaning the Print Head from the Control Panel
If you’re unable to clean the print head fully from the printer software, you
can use the printer’s control panel to perform a power cleaning. You should
not perform a power cleaning more often than necessary, since it consumes
additional ink.
1. Press the
SelecType button on the control panel. You see PRINTER
SETUP
.
2. Press
u until you see MAINTENANCE, then press r. You see PWR
CLEANING
.
3. Press
r until EXEC appears on the display, then press Enter.
The printer performs the power cleaning. Do not turn off the printer or
interrupt this process until it is complete.
If the lines on the pattern are still missing dots after running a power
cleaning, turn the printer off and leave it overnight, then clean the print
head again the following morning. If you still see no improvement, contact
EPSON for assistance.
