Maintaining Your CX5000

Series All-in-One

If you notice a decline in print quality, follow the instructions in this chapter for:

■ “Checking the Print Head Nozzles” (see below)

■ “Cleaning the Print Head” on page 33

■ “Checking the Ink Cartridge Status” on page 34

■ “Replacing Ink Cartridges” on page 35

Checking the Print Head Nozzles

If your printouts are faint or have gaps in them, some of the nozzles in the print

head may be clogged or ink may be running low in one or more of the ink

cartridges. Follow the steps below to check the print head nozzles using the control

panel.

1. Turn off the Epson Stylus CX5000 Series all-in-one.

2. Load letter-size paper in the sheet feeder.

3. Press the

B ink and P On buttons together and hold them down for about

3 seconds. The CX5000 Series turns on and prints a test pattern.

If the pattern does not look good, try cleaning the print head as described on the

next page.
