Troubleshooting
What to do
Do not store your paper in a humid or
damp environment.
EPSON special paper or smooth,
high-quality copier paper is
recommended for best results. See
"Available paper types" on page 319 for
information on choosing paper.
Clean internal printer components by
printing three pages with only one
character per page.
What to do
This printer is sensitive to moisture
absorbed by the paper. The higher the
moisture content in the paper, the
lighter the printout. Do not store paper
in a humid or damp environment.
If the surface of your paper is too rough,
printed characters may appear
distorted or broken. EPSON special
paper or smooth, high-quality copier
paper is recommended for best results.
