The CX6600's voltage may not match the outlet rating. Turn off the CX6600 and unplug it immediately. Then, check the CX6600 labels.

Try one or more of these solutions:

• Turn off the CX6600 and computer. Make sure that the interface cable is securely plugged in.

• Make sure that there is no packing material in the CX6600.

• Turn off the CX6600 and disconnect the USB cable from your computer, then print an operation check page. See Running a printer operation check.

If the check page prints correctly, make sure that the printer software and your application are installed correctly.

• If you are trying to print a large image, your computer may not have enough memory to print. Try printing a smaller image.

• Windows 98 and Me users can clear any stalled print jobs from the Spool Manager. See Using Epson Spool Manager.

• If the CX6600 sounds like it is trying to print, but is unable to, run the Head Cleaning utility. See Cleaning the Print Head

If this does not work, replace the ink cartridges. See Replacing an Ink Cartridge.
