Printed Characters Are Incorrect Or Garbled; The Printed Image Is Inverted; Mosaic-Like Patterns In The Prints - Epson XP-2150 Series User Manual

Solving Problems
❏ When placing the originals on the scanner glass, clean the scanner glass and the document cover using a dry,
soft, clean cloth. If there is dust or stains on the glass, the copy area may extend to include the dust or stains,
resulting in the wrong copying position or small images.
❏ Select the appropriate paper size setting.
❏ Adjust the margin setting in the application so that it falls within the printable area.

Mosaic-Like Patterns in the Prints

When printing images or photos, print using high-resolution data. Images on websites are often low resolution
although they look good enough on the display, and so print quality may decline.
