Key check
Epson Nozzle Check
Epson inkjet printers may provide a built-in nozzle check to reveal missing or faint output. Use it before deciding whether cleaning is needed.

Check the nozzle pattern before cleaning. Power Cleaning can use significant ink, so don't run it automatically.
Inkjet focus
Epson Inkjet & EcoTank
For missing lines, gaps or banding, check:
- nozzle output
- ink levels
- paper type
- print quality settings
- alignment
Test applicability varies by model.
FAQ
Epson printer testing: questions
How do I test my Epson printer?
Start with the Printer Test, or choose the test matching the visible problem.
How do I run an Epson nozzle check?
Use your printer's maintenance menu and inspect the pattern for gaps or faint output.
Why does my Epson print have horizontal bands?
Compare the Nozzle and Print Quality tests and check paper and quality settings.
Should I use Power Cleaning?
Not as a first step. Check the nozzle pattern first because Power Cleaning can use significant ink.
Do these tests work on Epson EcoTank printers?
Yes. Browser-generated test pages can be printed on EcoTank printers. Check ink levels on the printer itself.
