Faxing Problems ■ Make sure the recipient's fax machine is turned on and working. ■ Make sure the LINE port on the Artisan 810 Series is connected to a telephone wall jack. Verify that the telephone wall jack works by connecting a phone to it. ■ If the line has static, press the Home button and select Setup. Select Fax Setting, then select Communication. Turn off the V.34 and ECM (Error Correction Mode) settings. ■ If the Artisan 810 Series is connected to a DSL phone line, you must have a DSL filter connected to the phone jack. Contact your DSL provider for the necessary filter. ■ If fax calls are disconnected when you hang up, make sure your phone or answering machine is connected to the EXT. port. ■ If an answering machine is connected, set the number of rings to answer for receiving faxes to be greater than the number of rings for the answering machine. Print Quality Problems ■ For the best print quality, use Epson papers (see page 10) and genuine Epson ink cartridges (see page 47). ■ If you notice light or dark bands across your printouts or they are too faint, run a nozzle check (see page 43) to see if the print head needs cleaning. ■ If you notice jagged vertical lines, you may need to align the print head. See the online Epson Information Center for instructions. ■ The ink cartridges may be low on ink. Check your cartridge status (see page 45) and replace cartridges, if necessary (see page 47). ■ If you're copying, place the document flat against the scanner glass. ■ Clean the scanner glass with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth (paper towels are not recommended), or use a small amount of glass cleaner on a soft cloth, if necessary. Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the glass. 52 Solving Problems

Solving Problems
Faxing Problems
Make sure the recipient’s fax machine is turned on and working.
Make sure the
LINE
port on the Artisan 810 Series is connected to a telephone
wall jack. Verify that the telephone wall jack works by connecting a phone to
it.
If the line has static, press the
Home
button and select
Setup
. Select
Fax Setting
, then select
Communication
. Turn off the
V.34
and
ECM
(Error Correction Mode) settings.
If the Artisan 810 Series is connected to a DSL phone line, you must have a
DSL filter connected to the phone jack. Contact your DSL provider for the
necessary filter.
If fax calls are disconnected when you hang up, make sure your phone or
answering machine is connected to the
EXT.
port.
If an answering machine is connected, set the number of rings to answer for
receiving faxes to be greater than the number of rings for the answering
machine.
Print Quality Problems
For the best print quality, use Epson papers (see page 10) and genuine Epson
ink cartridges (see page 47).
If you notice light or dark bands across your printouts or they are too faint,
run a nozzle check (see page 43) to see if the print head needs cleaning.
If you notice jagged vertical lines, you may need to align the print head. See
the online
Epson Information Center
for instructions.
The ink cartridges may be low on ink. Check your cartridge status (see
page 45) and replace cartridges, if necessary (see page 47).
If you’re copying, place the document flat against the scanner glass.
Clean the scanner glass with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth (paper towels are not
recommended), or use a small amount of glass cleaner on a soft cloth, if
necessary. Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the glass.
