Test print / selection of paper?

Test print / selection of paper?

2008-01-29 by TFielder

I just loaded MIS inks in an Epson R 220.  Is there any way I can do a
test print to see if all of the inks are working properly?  I'm
printing on Epson Premium Photo Paper Glossy.  The images are
appearing flat.

Many thanks,

TEF

TEF -- I don't have a 220, but most of the Epson printers have a nozzle 
check feature on the maintenance menu, which does precisely what you 
want - check to see if all theinks are firing.  If they are, and its 
still flat, chances are that the image needs editing.
