Vertical unevenness when printing
from the auto sheet feeder
o
Are the auto sheet feeder rollers dirty?
A dirty roller may cause uneven vertical lines on the
print results. To remedy, clean the rollers. If vertical
lines appear on glossy paper, we recommend that
instead of using the auto sheet feeder, you feed
individual sheets from Cut Sheet(1 sheet) for
printing.

o
Are you using a genuine Epson ink
cartridge?
This printer is developed for use with Epson ink
cartridges. If you use non-Epson ink cartridges,
printouts may be faint, or the color of the printed
image may be changed because the remaining ink
level is not correctly detected. Be sure to use the
correct ink cartridge.
o
Are you using an old ink cartridge?
The print quality drops when an old ink cartridge is
used. Replace the old ink cartridge with a new one.
We recommend using all the ink in the cartridge
before the expiry date printed on the package
(within 6 months of installation in the printer).

some extent.
