Epson P953A User Manual page 163

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 vivid.
Cause
The image was printed on the
wrong side of EPSON Ink Jet
Paper.
The Media Type setting does
not match the paper loaded.
Color dots are missing in printed graphics or characters.
The printed color image has gaps or faint areas.
Cause
The color print head nozzles
are clogged.

Troubleshooting
See the user's guides of your
image-editing software and your
monitor for information on calibrating
your system for color matching.
See Appendix A, "Tips for Color
Printing."
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 print quality does not
improve, clean the print heads as
described on page 8-30.
Make sure the Media Type setting in
your printer driver matches the type of
media you have loaded, or load media
that matches the Media Type setting.
What to do
Clean the print head. See "Cleaning
the Print Head" on page 8-30.
