Running a Printer Check
You can run a printer check to determine whether the problem 
comes from the EPSON Stylus Scan
or your computer. 
1. Make sure both the EPSON Stylus Scan and your 
computer are turned off.
2. Disconnect the interface cable from the EPSON 
Stylus Scan.
3. Make sure paper is loaded.
4. Hold down the 
E
 load/eject button, then press and release 
the 
P
power button. Continue holding down the 
E
load/eject button until the 
P
power light starts to flash, 
then release it.
A check page is printed, showing the ROM version 
number, ink counter, and a nozzle check pattern. 
5. After the check is printed, turn off the power. Then 
reconnect the interface cable and turn on your EPSON 
Stylus Scan and computer.
■
If the results are satisfactory, the problem lies in your 
software settings, the interface cable, or your computer.
■
If the check page does not print correctly, you may have a 
problem with your EPSON Stylus Scan. Try the 
suggestions in “Problems and Solutions” on page 122 for 
more information.
