Diagnosing Problems
The EPSON Stylus Pro 10000 printer includes a number of ways to help 
you diagnose problems:
To identify the most common problems, check the messages and lights 
on the printer’s control panel. See page 5-5 through 5-7 for more 
information. 
If you’re using the EPSON printer driver and Monitor3 (Macintosh) or 
Status Monitor (Windows) utility, check your software for error 
messages. See Chapter 3 or 4 for more information.
To determine whether the problem is caused by the printer itself, 
disconnect the printer from your computer and run a nozzle check from 
the control panel. See page 1-9 for instructions.
You can use the printer’s hex dump mode to pinpoint communication 
problems. Then you can fax the printout to a technical support 
representative or interpret it yourself. See the following section for 
instructions.
If none of the suggested solutions in this chapter solve your problem, 
contact EPSON as described under “Where To Get Help” on page 4.
