CD/DVD Printing Problems

Images and text are not centered on the CD/DVD.

Adjust the print position as described on page 75.

Ink smears on the CD/DVD or printing is too light.

Adjust the print density as described on page 77.

Adjust the brightness or contrast as described on page 68.

Make sure you’re using ink-jet printable CDs or DVDs.

Handle the disc carefully and allow the ink to dry for at least 24 hours before playing the disc or inserting it in a drive.

Printed CDs or DVDs are dirty.

Clean the roller. See page 36 (stand-alone printing) or page 67 (printing from a computer).

The CD or DVD won’t feed into the printer.

Make sure you hold the CD/DVD tray level as you load it into the tray guide without tilting it up or down. Don’t push in the tray too far, but line up the arrows exactly as described on page 37 (stand-alone printing) or page 70 (printing from a computer).

Miscellaneous Printout Problems

The image is inverted.

Turn off the Flip Horizontal setting in the Advanced window or the mirror setting in your program. (If you’re printing on EPSON Iron-On Transfer Paper, the image should be inverted.)

The printer prints blank pages.

Make sure your printer is selected, or is the active printer in the Print Center or Macintosh Chooser.

The print head nozzles may need cleaning. See page 88.
