Do one of the following,
depending on the results of the product check:
If the page prints and the nozzle check
pattern is complete, the product is operating properly. Any
operation problem you may have could be caused by your computer,
cable, software, or selected settings. Check the other solutions in
this book or try uninstalling and reinstalling your printer
software.
If the page prints but the nozzle check
pattern has gaps, clean or align the print head.
If the page does not print, the product may
have a problem. Check the other solutions in this manual. If they
do not work, contact Epson.
