Run the Print Head Alignment
utility; see page 29 for
instructions.
Your printout is blurry or
smeared.
Make sure your paper isnt
damp or curled, or loaded face
down (the printable side should
be face up).
Use a support sheet with special
paper, or try loading your paper
one sheet at a time.
Use EPSON papers to ensure
proper saturation and
absorption of genuine EPSON
inks.
Run the Print Head Alignment
utility. See page 29 for
instructions.
Your printout is faint or has gaps.
The print head nozzles may
need cleaning; see page 23 for
instructions.
The ink cartridges may be old or
low on ink. To replace an ink
cartridge, see page 25.
Make sure the Paper Type
setting (Media Type setting for
Macintosh) matches the paper
you loaded. See page 22 for
guidelines.
Make sure your paper isnt
damaged, old, dirty, or loaded
face down. If it is, reload a new
stack of paper with the printable
side up; it is usually whiter or
shinier than the other side.
