7. Press down the ink cartridge clamp until it locks in place.

8. If you need to replace the other ink cartridge, repeat steps 3 through 7 before continuing with step 9.

The Ppower light flashes, and the printer makes noise. Charging takes about one minute. When it’s finished, the Ppower light stops flashing and stays on and the

berror light goes out.

Never turn off the printer while the Ppower light is flashing, unless the printer hasn’t moved or made noise for more than 5 minutes.

Aligning the Print Head

If your printouts contain misaligned vertical lines, you may need to align the print head. Your printer must be connected to a local port, not on a network, to use the Print Head Alignment utility.

1.Make sure the printer is turned on, but not printing, and letter-size paper is loaded.

Load paper that’s at least 8.27 inches (210 mm) wide to prevent ink from spraying inside the printer and smudging your printouts. For the best results, load EPSON ink jet paper in the printer whenever you check the print head alignment.

2.If you have an application running, access the printer settings dialog box as described on page 6 (Windows) or page 10 (Macintosh).

Or, with Windows, click Start, point to Settings, and select Printers. Right-click the EPSON Stylus Color 777 icon, then select Properties (Windows 95 or 98),

Document Defaults (Windows NT), or Printing Preferences (Windows 2000).

3.Windows: Click the Utility tab.

Macintosh: Click the Utility button.

4.You see the Utility menu. Click the Print Head Alignment button.
