it will start over, using more ink than necessary. Charging is

Testing the Printer
You can run a printer check to determine whether a problem
comes from the printer itself or some other source.
1. Make sure both the printer and computer are turned off.
2. Disconnect the interface cable from the printer.
3. Make sure letter-size or larger paper is loaded in the printer.
4. Hold down the
b
maintenance button, then press and
release the
Ppower button. Continue holding down the
b
maintenance button until the
Ppower light starts to
flash, then release it.
The printer prints one page showing its ROM version
number, ink counter, and a nozzle check pattern. (If the
pattern has gaps in its dots, you need to clean the print
head; see page 8.)
5. To end the check, turn off the printer after it prints the
check page. Then reconnect the interface cable and turn on
your printer and computer.
If the check page prints, the problem probably lies in your
software settings, the interface cable, or your computer.
If the check page doesn’t print, you may have a problem with
your printer. Try the suggestions in the Printer Basics book. If
nothing seems to work, contact your dealer or EPSON.
