What should I do if my printout has incorrect colors?

• If your printouts have incorrect colors, try these solutions:
  • Make sure the Black/Grayscale or Grayscale setting is not selected in your printer software.
  • Run a nozzle check to see if any of the print head nozzles are clogged. Then clean the print head, if necessary.
  • Make sure you set the transportation lock to the unlocked (printing) position: .
  • Make sure the transportation caps are not installed.
  • The ink levels may be low and you may need to refill the ink. Visually check the ink levels. Also make sure you filled the tanks with the correct colors of ink.
  • 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.
  • For best results, use genuine Epson ink and paper.
