Solving Problems
Solutions
Print using a high quality
setting on the control panel or
in the printer driver.
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.
Match the print settings
shown on the paper package.
❏ Try to use genuine Epson ink cartridge. This
product is designed to adjust colors based on the use
of genuine Epson ink cartridge. The use of
non-genuine ink cartridge may cause print quality
to decline.
❏ Epson recommends using the ink cartridge before
the date printed on the package.
❏ For best results, use up ink cartridge within six
months of opening the package.
❏ 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.

Colors
Adjust the color and then print again. The automatic

mode in PhotoEnhance. Try another correction mode
in PhotoEnhance by selecting an option other than
Automatic as the Scene Detection setting. If the
problem continues, use any other color correction
feature other than PhotoEnhance.

Margins of the Printout

❏ Check that the printer's paper size setting is correct.
❏ If you want to print with no margins, make settings
for borderless printing. In the print settings for
Print Photos mode, select Borderless. If you select
a paper type that does not support borderless
printing, you cannot select Borderless. Select a
paper type that supports borderless printing.
❏ During borderless printing, the image is slightly
enlarged and the protruding area is cropped. Adjust
the amount of enlargement. In the print settings for
Print Photos mode, select Expansion, and then
select the amount of enlargement.
