Print Quality Problems ■ For the best print quality, use Epson papers and genuine Epson ink cartridges (see page 36). ■ Load the paper printable side up (usually the whiter, brighter, or glossy side). ■ Make sure your paper isn't damp or curled. ■ Some papers can only be loaded one sheet at a time (see page 5). ■ Make sure the type of paper you loaded matches the paper size and paper type settings in your printer software (see page 29). ■ Remove sheets from the output tray as they eject. Let your prints dry separately for at least 12 hours before framing or placing in a protective sheet. If you need to stack them, place a sheet of plain paper between each print. ■ If you notice light or dark bands across your printouts or they are too faint, you may need to clean the print head. Run a nozzle check and clean the print head if necessary (see page 31). ■ If you notice jagged vertical lines, run the print head alignment utility to check and align the print head (see page 33). ■ The ink cartridges may be low on ink.

Solving Problems
Print Quality Problems
For the best print quality, use Epson papers and genuine Epson ink cartridges
(see page 36).
Load the paper printable side up (usually the whiter, brighter, or glossy side).
Make sure your paper isn’t damp or curled.
Some papers can only be loaded one sheet at a time (see page 5).
Make sure the type of paper you loaded matches the paper size and paper type
settings in your printer software (see page 29).
Remove sheets from the output tray as they eject. Let your prints dry
separately for at least 12 hours before framing or placing in a protective sheet.
If you need to stack them, place a sheet of plain paper between each print.
If you notice light or dark bands across your printouts or they are too faint,
you may need to clean the print head. Run a nozzle check and clean the print
head if necessary (see page 31).
If you notice jagged vertical lines, run the print head alignment utility to
check and align the print head (see page 33).
The ink cartridges may be low on ink. Check cartridge status (see page 34)
and replace cartridges if necessary (see page 36).
Network Problems
If you have a poor wireless connection, try moving the product to a different
location. Avoid placing it next to a microwave oven, 2.4 GHz cordless phone, or
large metal object such as a filing cabinet.
Note:
For optimal print speed, your wireless router and/or laptop must conform to the 802.11n
standard. Earlier standards (802.11a/b/g) are not supported.
Network setup failed
Try moving the product to a different location.
Make sure there aren’t any access restrictions (such as MAC address filtering)
set on the wireless router. If access restrictions are set, register the product’s
MAC address on the router. Print a Network Status Sheet (see below) to
obtain the MAC address. Then see your router’s manual for instructions.
