Roll paper is loaded, but I cannot see
the paper inside the printer.
Was the printer switched off after loading

the roll paper, or did it enter sleep mode?
To reduce roller marks on the edge of the paper,
paper is moved to the ejection position when the
printer is turned off or it enters sleep mode. When
print data is sent while paper is at the ejection
position, paper is fed and printed automatically.
You can perform the following operations from the
control panel.

When the printer is not turned off normally, the
print head may not be capped correctly. If the print
head is left uncapped for a long time, the print
quality may decline.
When you turn on the printer, capping is performed
automatically after a few minutes.
Also, if the printer is turned off during calibration,
data transmission and writing adjustment values
may not be performed correctly. Turn on the printer,
and then check Calibration Date from the Printer
Status menu. When the date is initialized, the
adjustment values are also initialized.
Exit Epson Color Calibration Utility, and then restart.
The adjustment values are automatically restored.
