3. Održavanje

Visually inspect the ink tanks on the side of the printer. The transparent tanks allow you to monitor ink levels. Refill ink when levels approach the lower line to prevent air from entering the system, which can affect print quality.

3.2 Čišćenje glave štampača

If print quality declines (e.g., missing lines, incorrect colors), perform a print head cleaning. This can be done through the printer utility software on your computer:

1. Open the Epson printer utility on your computer.
2. Idite do Održavanje or Utility tab.
3. Odaberite Čišćenje glave i pratite uputstva na ekranu.

Alternatively, you can perform a head cleaning by holding down the Održavanje button on the printer for 3 seconds until the power light starts flashing. Release the button and wait for the cleaning cycle to complete.

3.3 Provjera mlaznica

After a head cleaning, or if you suspect print quality issues, perform a nozzle check to verify if all nozzles are firing correctly. This can also be done via the printer utility software or by holding the Održavanje button for a shorter duration (e.g., 1 second) to print a nozzle check pattern.
