Aligning The Print Head - Epson L100 Manual Del Usuario

Note:
This function consumes a lot of ink. We only recommend using this function after running the Head
•
Cleaning utility several times.
• This function affects the service life of the ink pads. Ink pads reach their capacity earlier by running this
function. Contact Epson support to request replacement before the end of their service life. When the ink
pads are at the end of their service life, the printer stops and Epson support is required to continue printing.
If you perform the Power Ink Flushing utility when the status of the approximate ink levels is low, you may
•
not perform it or the print quality may not improve completely.
• If the ink alert message displays on the status monitor window, follow the on-screen instructions, and then
perform the Power Ink Flushing utility again.
After running the Power Ink Flushing utility, run the nozzle check again and repeat the head cleaning if
•
necessary. If print quality has still not improved, turn the printer off and wait for at least six hours. If you
cannot solve the problem, contact Epson support.
