If your printouts have incorrect colors, try these
solutions:
- Make sure
the paper type setting matches the paper you loaded.
- Make sure
the Black/Grayscale or Grayscale setting is not selected in your
printer software.
- If you
selected Standard-Vivid (Windows)
or Normal-Vivid (Mac) as the
quality setting in the printer software, try selecting Standard (Windows) or Normal (Mac) instead.
- Run a nozzle
check to see if any of the print head nozzles are clogged. Then
clean the print head, if necessary.
- The ink
cartridges may be old or low on ink, and you may need to replace
them.
- After you
print, the colors in your printout need time to set as the ink
dries. During this time, the colors may look different than you
expect. To speed up drying time, do not stack your printouts on top
of each other.
- Your printed
colors can never exactly match your on-screen colors. However, you
can use a color management system to get as close as possible. Try
using the color management options in your printer software.
- Try changing the Scene
Correction setting to something other than Automatic.
- If you are using a Mac, select ColorSync from the Color Matching menu of the driver.
- For best
results, use genuine Epson paper.
- Remove any dust or dirt on the originals and clean
the scanner glass.
- Do not press with too much force on the original or
the document cover.
- Colors may differ if you are viewing the image on a
computer or device with a high-resolution display. Make sure to
avoid direct sunlight when confirming the image on the
display.
