Checking the paper
❏ Use paper supported by this printer.
❏ Do not print on paper that is damp, damaged, or too old.
❏ If the paper is curled or the envelope is puffed up, flatten it.
❏ Do not stack the paper immediately after printing.
❏ Dry the printouts completely before filing or displaying them. When drying the printouts, avoid direct sun light,
do not use a dryer, and do not touch the printed side of paper.
❏ When printing images or photos, Epson recommends using genuine Epson paper rather than plain paper. Print
on the printable side of the genuine Epson paper.
Checking the print settings
❏ Select the appropriate paper type setting for the type of paper loaded in the printer.
❏ Print using a higher quality setting.
❏ If you have selected Standard-Vivid as the quality setting on the Windows printer driver, change to Standard. If
you have selected Normal-Vivid as the quality setting on the Mac OS printer driver, change to Normal.
Checking the ink supply unit
❏ Try to use genuine Epson ink supply units. This product is designed to adjust colors based on the use of genuine
Epson ink supply units. The use of non-genuine ink supply units may cause print quality to decline.
❏ Epson recommends using the ink supply unit before the date printed on the package.
