Aligning the Print Head
Aligning the print head is one of the most important things you can do to
ensure the best print quality. If vertical banding appears on your prints, if
they look grainy or blurry, or if you see misregistration or “ghosting,” you
need to align the print head.
If you haven’t already done so, it’s a good idea to run a nozzle check before
aligning the print head (page 83). This ensures that the print head alignment
patterns print correctly.
Follow these steps to align the print head:
1. Load the bundled roll paper included with the printer. You can also use
Epson film or other compatible Epson media.
2. Press r Menu .
3. Press u or d until HEAD ALIGNMENT is selected, then press r.
4. Make sure PAPER THICKNESS is highlighted, then press r.
5. Make sure SELECT PAPER TYPE is highlighted, then press r. Select
the paper type loaded in the printer and press OK . Select Bundle Roll
Paper if you’ve loaded the bundled paper included with the printer.
6. Press l twice to return to the Head Alignment menu.
7. Press d to select ALIGNMENT , then press r.
Tip: For best results, use
the same width of paper
that you plan to print with.
Note: When you select
the paper type, it
automatically sets the
paper thickness for Epson
media.
