Epson Stylus COLOR 300 User Manual page 83

The Media Type setting does
not match the paper loaded.
The print head nozzles for a
particular color of ink are
clogged.
The ICM setting in your
driver is not appropriate for
your document.
Your printer and monitor are
not properly calibrated for
color matching.
Since monitors and printers
produce colors differently,
printed colors will not
always match on-screen
colors perfectly.
Colors are not very vibrant.
Cause
The image was printed on the
wrong side of ink jet paper.
The Media Type setting does
not match the loaded paper.
Change the Media Type setting in
your printer driver to match the type
of media you have loaded, or load
media that matches the Media Type
setting. See online help.
Clean the print head. See page 5-6.
Select Automatic on the printer
driver's Main menu.
See the user's guides of your
image-editing software and your
monitor for information on calibrating
your system for color matching.
See online help or the EPSON
Answers CD-ROM for color printing
information.
What to do
Make sure that you are printing on the
coated side of the paper. If necessary,
flip over the paper and try printing
again. If printing does not improve
clean the print head.
Make sure the Media Type setting
matches the type of paper loaded in
the printer, or load media that
matches the Media Type setting. See
online help.
