8. Press down the ink cartridge clamp until it
locks in place. (The color clamp is a bit
harder to close than the black clamp.)

repeat steps 4 through 8 before continuing

Aligning the Print Head

If your printouts contain misaligned vertical lines, you may need to align the print
head. Your printer must be connected to a local port, not on a network, to use the
Print Head Alignment utility. Follow these steps:
1. Make sure the printer is turned on but not printing, and letter-size paper is
loaded.
2. If you have an application running, access the printer settings window as
described on page 15 (Windows) or page 20 (Macintosh).

Never turn off the printer while the Ppower light is flashing, unless
the printer hasn't moved or made noise for more than 5 minutes.
Load paper that's at least 8.27 inches (210 mm) wide to prevent ink
from spraying inside the printer and smudging your printouts.
For the best results, load EPSON ink jet paper in the printer
whenever you check the print head alignment. Don't use plain,
recycled, or photocopier paper.
