Running A Printer Check - Epson P320A Printer Basics Manual

Running a Printer Check

You can run a printer check to determine whether a problem comes from the printer
itself or some other source. The printer check also shows how much black and color
ink you have left.
1. Make sure both the printer and computer are turned off. Then disconnect the
interface cable from the printer.
2. Make sure letter-size or larger plain paper is loaded in the printer.
3. Hold down the
button, then press and release the
Ppower button. Continue holding
down the
the green P power light starts to flash,
then release it.
The printer prints one page showing its
ROM version number, black and color ink
percentages remaining, and a nozzle check
pattern. (If the pattern has lines, you need
to clean the print head; see page 25.)
4. Turn off the printer after it prints the
check page. Then reconnect the cable and turn on your printer and computer.
