Checking The Ink Status - Epson Stylus CX7000F Series Basic Manual

6. If there are still gaps or lines, or the test patterns are faint, run another
cleaning cycle and check the nozzles again.
Note:
If you don't see any improvement after cleaning the print head four times, turn off
the CX7000F Series and wait at least six hours. This lets any dried ink soften. Then
try cleaning the print head again. If quality still does not improve, one of the ink
cartridges may be old or damaged and needs to be replaced (see page 47).
Tip:
If you do not use your CX7000F Series often, it is a good idea to print a few pages at
least once a month to maintain good print quality.
