Checking the print head nozzles
If you find that the printed data is unexpectedly faint or dots in
the printed data are missing, you may be able to identify the
problem by checking the print head nozzles by using the Nozzle
Check utility.
To use the Nozzle Check utility, follow the steps below.
Note:
Do not start the Nozzle Check utility while printing is in progress;
otherwise, your printout may be marred.
1. Make sure paper is loaded in the printer.
2. Click Nozzle Check.
3. Click Print if you want to visually check if any print head
nozzles are clogged, if you are using non-Epson special
media, or if the width of paper you are using is less than
210 mm. Click Auto if you want to perform an automatic
nozzle check, and if the nozzle check indicates it is necessary.
