Areas are missing in the printed image
Completely blank pages are output
Cause What to do
Your paper may be moist or
damp.
This printer is sensitive to moisture
absorbed by the paper. The higher the
moisture content in the paper, the lighter
the printout. Do not store paper in a
humid or damp environment.
You may not be using the
correct type of paper for your
printer.
If the surface of your paper is too rough,
printed characters may appear distorted
or broken. Epson special paper or
smooth, high-quality copier paper is
recommended for best results. See
“Available paper types” on page 233 for
information on choosing paper.
Cause What to do
The printer may have loaded
more than one sheet at a time.
Remove the paper stack and fan it. Tap
it on a flat surface to even the edges, then
reload the paper.
There may be no toner left in
the toner cartridge.
If the message on the LCD panel or in the
Epson Status Monitor 3 indicates that
the amount of toner is low, replace the
toner cartridge. See “Toner Cartridge”
on page 161.
The problem may be with your
application, interface cable, or
printer.
Confirm the application setting and
interface connection, and print out a
status sheet. See “Printing a Status
Sheet” on page 193. If a blank page is
ejected, the problem may be with the
printer. Turn off the printer and contact
your dealer.
