o
Are you using the printer at normal room
temperature?
Epson special media should be used at normal room
temperature (temperature: 15 to 25 C, humidity: 40 to
60 %). For information about paper such as thin paper
from other manufacturers that requires special
handling, see the manual supplied with the paper.
Too much ink is fired.
o
Are the Media Type settings correct?
Make sure that the printer driver's
Media Type
settings match the paper that you are using. The
amount of ink to be fired is controlled according to the
media type. If the settings do not match the paper
loaded, too much ink may be fired.
o
Did you shake the ink cartridge before
installing it in the printer?
The printer uses pigment inks, which require that the
ink inside the cartridge be mixed before the cartridge
is installed.

Is the paper stored correctly?
The paper may expand or contract if it is not stored
correctly so that margins appear even when
borderless is set. See the manual supplied with the
paper for more information on the storage method.

Are you using paper that supports borderless
printing?
Paper that does not support borderless printing may
expand or contract while printing so that margins
appear even when borderless is set. We recommend
using paper that is designed to support borderless
printing.

If the paper is loaded correctly, check the condition of
the paper that you are using.
o
Is the paper loaded in the correct direction?
Load cut sheets vertically. If the paper is not loaded in
the correct orientation, the printer will not recognize
the paper or feed it correctly, resulting in errors.

“Loading Cut Sheets” on page 19
o
Is the paper creased or folded?
Do not use old paper or paper with folds in it. Always
use new paper.
o
Is the paper damp?
Do not use paper that is damp. Also, Epson special
media should be left in the bag until you intend to use
it. If it is left out for a long time, the paper curls up and
gets damp so that it does not feed properly.
o
Is the paper wavy or curled?
Cut sheets may be wavy or curled due to changes in
temperature or humidity which may result in the
printer being unable to recognize the paper size
correctly. Flatten the paper before loading it in the
printer, or use new paper.
