How to resolve blurry or smudged printout problem in Epson XP-800?

In case your printer is producing blurry or smudged printouts, try the following solutions:

• Check that the paper is not damp, rolled, pale, or placed face up in the cassette (the printable side should be face down).
• Ensure that your paper is not loaded face down in the rear feed slot (the printable side should be faceup)
• Utilize a support sheet with special or glossy paper, and load special paper one sheet at a time.
• Make sure your paper matches the specifications for the printer.
• You must use Epson papers to ensure proper saturation and absorption of high-quality Epson XP-800 ink cartridges.
• Paper type setting in your product software should match the type of paper you loaded.
• Take out the sheet from the tray as it gets printed.
• Restrict touching printouts on glossy paper right after printing to allow the ink to set.
• If the high-speed setting is turned on in the printer software, then it must be turned off.
• In case you print on both sides of a page, smudges may appear on the reverse side or dark images. So print that side of the page first which contain a lighter image or text.
• Perform a nozzle check, to examine whether any of the print head nozzles are chocked. Execute printhead cleaning, if required.
• Align the print head and clean the paper path.

Note: The printer will work inappropriate if it is kept tilted at an angle. Place it on a flat surface so that the print quality can be improved.

What should be done if the printouts are having incorrect colours?

If the printouts have incorrect colours, follow these solutions:

• Ensure the black/grayscale or grayscale setting is not chosen in the printer software.
• Perform a nozzle check to verify that any of the print head nozzles are not clogged. Execute printhead cleaning if required.
• The Epson XP-800 ink cartridges may be old or ink might have run out, so it may need to be replaced soon.
• The colours on printouts can never perfectly match on-screen colours. So, use a colour management system to make shades are as close as possible.
