Epson Stylus 1520 User Manual page 208

The Media Type setting does
not match the loaded paper.
The print head nozzles for a
particular color of ink are
clogged.
The ICM (Windows) or
ColorSync (Macintosh)
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 EPSON Ink Jet
paper.
The Media Type setting on
the Main menu of the printer
driver is incorrect.

Troubleshooting
Change the Media Type setting in
your printer driver to match the type
of media you have loaded.
Clean the color print head as described
in "Cleaning the Print Heads" on page
10-36.
Set the driver to Automatic.
See the user's guides of your
image-editing software and your
monitor for information on calibrating
your system for color matching.
See "Tips for Color Printing" in
Appendix A.
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 has not improved,
clean the print heads as described later
in this chapter.
Make sure the Media Type setting
matches the type of paper loaded in
the printer.
