Checking The Print Head Nozzles; Using The Nozzle Check Utility - Epson Stylus Scan 2000 User Manual

Checking the Print Head Nozzles

If you find that printouts and copies are unexpectedly faint or that
there are gaps (missing dots) in the printed image, you may be
able to identify the problem by checking the print head nozzles.
You can check the print head nozzles from the Nozzle Check
utility in your computer, or from the control panel. Both methods
are described below.
