Cleaning the print head
From the control panel you can clean all nozzles or select
to clean only those nozzles for which the printed nozzle
check pattern indicates a problem.
Notes on head cleaning
Note the following points when performing head
cleaning.
Clean the print head only if print quality declines;
for example, if the printout is blurry or the color is
incorrect or missing. Ink is consumed when head
cleaning is performed.
Cleaning all nozzles consumes some of each color of
ink. Even if you are using only black inks for black
and white printing, color inks are also consumed.
When repeating head cleaning in a short time
period, the Maintenance Box may fill up quickly
due to a small amount of ink evaporation in the
Maintenance Box. Prepare a spare Maintenance
Box if there is not enough empty space in the box.
If the nozzles are still clogged after performing head
cleaning, turn off the printer and leave it overnight
or longer. When left for some time, the clogged ink
may dissolve.
If the nozzles are still clogged, contact your dealer or
Epson Support.

Minimizing Print Misalignments
(Head Alignment)
Because there is a small distance between the print head
and paper, misalignment may occur due to humidity or
temperature, the inertial force of the print head's
movements, or by moving the print head
bidirectionally. This may result in grainy prints or lines
that are incorrectly placed. When this happens, perform
Head Alignment to correct the print misalignment.
For head alignment, you need to check the pattern and
enter the optimum adjustment value for alignment.
