Aligning the Print Head
If your printouts contain misaligned vertical lines, you may need to align the print 
head.
If you are using DOS, follow the instructions in your electronic EPSON Stylus 
COLOR 900N
 Manual instead.
Follow these steps:
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and letter-size paper is loaded.
Load paper that’s at least 8.27 inches (210 mm) wide. This 
prevents ink from spraying inside the printer and smudging 
your printouts.
For the best results, load EPSON ink jet paper in the printer 
whenever you check the print head alignment.
2. Access the printer settings dialog box as described on page 61 (Windows) or 
page 65 (Macintosh).
3. Click the 
Utility
 tab (Windows) or the 
Utility icon (Macintosh). You see the 
Utility menu.
4. Click the 
Print Head Alignment
 icon.
5. Follow the instructions on the screen to print a test page and select the correct 
alignment.
