The paper is creased.
Are you using the printer at normal room temperature?
o
Epson special media should be used at normal room temperature (temperature: 59 to 77°F [15 to
25°C], humidity: 40 to 60%). For information about paper such as thin paper from other
manufacturers that requires special handling, see the documentation supplied with the paper.
When using non-Epson special media, have you made the paper configuration?
o
When using non-Epson special media, configure the paper characteristics (custom paper)
before printing.
See "Before printing on non-Epson media" on page 230.
The reverse side of the printed paper is soiled.
Select On for Paper Size Check in the menus.
o
Although printing normally stops if the print image is wider than the paper, when Off is selected
for Paper Size Check in the Setup menu, the printer may print outside the bounds of the paper,
getting ink on the inside of the printer in the process. This can be prevented by selecting On for
Paper Size Check in the Setup menu.
See "Setup menu" on page 175.
Is ink dry on the printed surface?
o
Depending on the printing density and media type, the ink may take a while to dry. Do not stack
the paper until the printed surface is dry.
Also, if you set the Drying Time per Page in Paper Configuration from the printer driver, you can
stop the operation after printing (ejecting and cutting paper) and wait until the ink is dry. See the
printer driver help for more details on the Paper Configuration dialog.
See "Cleaning the inside" on page 201.
Too much ink is fired.
Are the Media Type settings correct?
o
Make sure that the printer driver's Media Type settings match the paper that you are using. The
amount of ink to be fired is controlled according to the media type. If the settings do not match
the paper loaded, too much ink may be fired.
Is the Color Density setting correct?
o
Lower the density of the ink in the Paper Configuration dialog from the printer driver. The printer
may be firing too much ink for some paper. See the printer driver help for more details on the
Paper Configuration dialog.
