Running a Printer Check 103
Running a Printer Check
You may need to run a printer check to see if a problem comes from the printer itself or some
other source.
1. Make sure both the printer and computer are turned off. Then disconnect the USB cable
from the printer.
2. Make sure letter-size or larger paper is loaded in the printer.
3. Hold down the
z roll paper button, then press and release the Ppower button.
4. The printer prints a page showing its ROM version number and a nozzle check pattern.
(If the pattern has gaps, you need to clean the print head; see page 84.)
■ If the check page printed, the problem probably lies in your memory card, software
settings, the interface cable, or your computer, or your software may not be installed
correctly.
■ If the check page did not print, you may have a problem with your printer. Try the
suggestions in “Solving Problems Setting Up the Printer or Installing Software”
beginning on page 94. If nothing works, contact your dealer or EPSON as described
on page 106.
5. After examining the check page, remember to turn off the printer and reconnect its cable
to your computer.
