Then clean the print head, ifnecessary.• 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 colorsmay look different than you expect. To speed up drying time, do not stack your printouts on top of eachother.• Your printed colors can never exactly match your on-screen colors. However, you can use a colormanagement system to get as close as possible. Try using the color management options in yourprinter software.• For best results, use genuine Epson ink and paper.Parent topic: Solving Print Quality ProblemsRelated conceptsPrint Head Nozzle CheckPrint Head CleaningRelated referencesAvailable Epson PapersRelated tasksSelecting Basic Print Settings - MacManaging Color - MacSelecting Basic Print Settings - WindowsSelecting Additional Layout and Print Options - WindowsRelated topicsReplacing Ink Cartridges and Maintenance BoxesSolving Scanning ProblemsCheck these solutions if you have problems scanning with your product.Scanning Software Does Not Operate Correctly
