Examine the nozzle check pattern after printing it. It should 
look something like this, with each of the six sections showing 
one of the ink colors:

Each staggered horizontal and straight vertical line should be 
complete, with no gaps in the dot pattern. If your printout 
looks OK, you’re done. If any dots are missing, as shown 
below, clean the print head again, as explained in the previous 
sections.

If your printouts contain misaligned vertical lines, you may 
need to align the print head. Follow these steps:

1. Make sure the printer is turned on and paper is loaded.

2. Access the printer settings dialog box.

3. Click the 

Utility

 tab (Windows) or the 

Utility

 button 

(Macintosh). You see the Utility menu.

4. Click the 

Print Head Alignment

 button.

5. Follow the instructions on the screen to print a test page 

and select the correct alignment.

Note:
For best results, use EPSON ink jet paper or photo quality paper 
when you check the print head alignment.

Caution:
Don’t touch the gears inside the printer.

Never use alcohol or thinner for cleaning; they can 
damage the printer components and case.

Don’t get water on the printer components.

Don’t spray lubricants or oils inside the printer.

To keep your printer working at its best, you should clean it 
several times a year, following these steps:

1. Turn off the printer, unplug the power cord, and 

disconnect the printer cable.

2. Remove all the paper from the sheet feeder.

3. Clean the exterior of the printer with a soft, damp cloth. 

Keep the printer cover closed so water doesn’t get inside.

4. Clean ink out of the printer’s interior with a damp cloth.

Caution:
Don’t use the cleaning sheets that may be included with 
your special media; they may damage the printer.

If you want to move your printer some distance, you need to 
prepare it for transportation and repack it in the original box. 

Caution:
To avoid damage, always leave the ink cartridges 
installed when transporting the printer.

Follow these steps:

1. Turn on the printer and wait until the print head locks in 

the far right position. Then turn off the printer.

2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Then 

disconnect the interface cable from the printer.

3. Remove any paper from the sheet feeder and remove the 

paper support.

4. Push in the output tray extensions and close the tray.

5. Repack the printer and attachments in the original box 

using the protective materials that came with it. See the 
Notice Sheet that was packed with the printer.

Be sure to keep the printer flat as you transport it. If you 
notice a decline in print quality after transporting the printer, 
clean the print head; if output is misaligned, align the print 
head.
