Aligning the Print Head
If banding appears on your prints, or vertical lines are not straight, you need
to align the print head. Although you can align the print head using the
printer software, its best to do this from the control panel. This aligns the
print head for all modes and resolutions.
If you havent already done so, its a good idea to run a nozzle check before
aligning the print head (page 5-4). This ensures that the print head
alignment patterns print correctly.
Follow these steps to align the print head using the control panel:
1. Make sure the printer is turned on. Then load roll paper that is at least
24 inches wide (you can use the roll paper that came with your printer).
2. Press the
SelecType
button on the control panel. You see
PRINTER
SETUP
.
3. Press
u
so you see
HEAD ALIGNMENT
, then press
r
. You see

4. Press

so that
*STD
appears on the display. This is the correct
thickness setting for most EPSON papers. If youll be printing on one of
the papers listed below after completing the alignment, use the
u
and
d
buttons to select the appropriate thickness setting for that paper.
5. Press Enter
.
6. Press the
d
button to select the mode you want to perform the
adjustment in (
BI-D BLACK
,
BI-D ALL
, or
UNI-D ALL
).
If youre printing non-photographic images with black ink only, select
BI-D BLACK
. Otherwise, perform a
UNI-D ALL
adjustment, followed
by
BI-D ALL
.
7. Press the
Enter
button to print the alignment patterns.

TIP
Use the paper that came
with your printer for
printing the alignment
pattern. That way, youll
save your higher-quality
paper for actual print
jobs.
Note
If youre performing a
BI-D ALL adjustment, its
important to perform the

first.
