Caution:

Never turn off the printer while the P Power light is flashing. Doing so may damage the

printer.

6. When the P Power light stops flashing, the printer returns to the nozzle check menu. Press the OK

button to print a nozzle check pattern to confirm that the head is clean.

& See “Checking the Print Head Nozzles” on page 151.

Note:

❏ If print quality has not improved after repeating this procedure, turn off the printer and wait for at

least six hours. Then run the nozzle check again and repeat the head cleaning if necessary.

❏ If print quality remains a problem, contact Epson Service Center.

& See “Contacting Epson Support” on page 191.

❏ To maintain print quality, we recommend printing a few pages on a regular basis.
