The Media Type setting does
not match the paper loaded.
The print head nozzles for a
particular color of ink are
clogged.
The ICM setting in your
driver is not appropriate for
your document.
Your printer and monitor are
not properly calibrated for
color matching.
Since monitors and printers
produce colors differently,
printed colors will not always
match on-screen colors
perfectly.
Colors are not very vibrant.
Cause
The image was printed on the
wrong side of EPSON 360 dpi
Ink Jet Paper.
The Media Type setting does
not match the loaded paper.
6-20
Troubleshooting
Change the Media Type setting in
your printer driver to match the type
of media you have loaded, or load
media that matches the Media Type
setting. See page 3-12.
Clean the print head. See "Cleaning
the Print Head" later in this chapter.
Select Automatic on the printer
driver's Main menu.
See the user's guides of your
image-editing software and your
monitor for information on calibrating
your system for color matching.
See online help, EPSON Answers, and
"Tips for Color Printing" in
Appendix A.
What to do
Make sure that you are printing on the
coated side of the paper. If necessary,
flip over the paper and try printing
again. If printing does not improve
clean the print head.
Make sure the Media Type setting
matches the type of paper loaded in
the printer, or load media that matches
the Media Type setting. See page 3-12.
