Cleaning the Print Head (Head Cleaning)
If the nozzles are clogged, the printouts become faint, there is visible banding, or unexpected colors appear. When
print quality has declined, use the nozzle check feature and check if the nozzles are clogged. If the nozzles are
clogged, clean the print head.
c
Important:
Do not open the printer cover or turn
o
the printer during head cleaning. If the head cleaning is incomplete, you
may not be able to print.
Because print head cleaning uses some ink, clean the print head only if quality declines.
When ink is low, you may not be able to clean the print head.
If print quality has not improved aer repeating nozzle check and head cleaning three times, wait for at least six
hours without printing, and then run the nozzle check again. We recommend to turn
o
the printer. If print
quality has still not improved, run Power Cleaning. If it has still not improved, contact Epson support.
To prevent the print head from drying out, do not unplug the printer while the power is on.
