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 prints but almost the entire nozzle check pattern
is missing, perform a Power Cleaning.
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.
