As we all know, this is the latest Continuous Ink System printer model in the Epson brand. We were obviously naive in thinking Epson would go out of its way and provide their customers with a printer that’s convenient for them.
However, as time goes by and you continue to use your printer, you will start noticing this printer is more troublesome than it looks. Once you’ve printer 15 pages with it, the printer will say it needs to have the inner sponges replaced, which will cost you about $30.00 if you choose to go along with it.
We can now proceed to show you to unclog the head prints on this particular printer. Be very careful when using dyed inks that are sold in printer stores, since these printers actually use pigmented ones.
You can learn the difference between them by reading this post.

If it looks like the second one, keep doing these tests until you reach high print quality.

These examples are just a sample of how to rest of the documents or images produced by your printer will look. You can repeat this process without harming the printer in any way.
4. Press and hold the Resume/Cancel button for 3 to 5 seconds. In this case, the green LED indicator will start blinking, letting us the printer is in the middle of something.

5. Once this LED stops blinking, it will shine steadily once more. You can now turn the printer off. This entire process shouldn’t take more than 10 seconds, but it could do it all the same. Please wait until the print heads have been cleaned completely.

If you still can’t reach the print quality you’re looking for, please repeat this process until you do. If you’ve already done this three times and the results are still displeasing, then execute the Deeap Cleaning Process installed with your printer’s drivers.
