How to resolve blurry prints in an Epson printer while using Epson Workforce WF-3520DWF Ink Cartridges?
Follow the methods to resolve the blurry prints:
Checking the print head clogging issue
If an Epson printer is left unutilized for a long time, then ink in the printer head will dry and lead to clogging. Unclogging a printhead can be a tedious task. A popular way to solve the clogged print head is the print towel method:
- At the beginning of the process, have a wet paper towel and a dry paper towel ready.
- Take a wet paper towel and mark the cartridge with the printhead side down onto the towel.
- You would see the ink appearing on the towel after blotting a few times.
- After smearing on the moist paper towel, hold the Epson Workforce WF-3520DWF Ink Cartridges against the dry paper towel for 30-60 seconds.
- Once done with the process, slide the cartridge back in the machine and run a test print.
- If not done correctly, repeat the process again.
Ensure that the printer is on the flat and stable surface.
Make sure that the printer is on a flat, levelled and plane surface that extends in all the directions as it may not work properly if the surface is rough or tilted.
The paper should not be curled, damaged, or too old
Printing on old or wrinkled paper may cause the ink to smudge on your printout. If the paper is rolled, curl it slightly in the opposite direction before printing. The paper must be dry and place only one sheet at a time. Also ensure that the paper type selected in the printer driver is suitable for the type of paper loaded in the printer.
Avoid using old or damaged ink cartridges
If the cartridges are installed into the printer for longer than 6 months then the ink in the cartridges may dry out, as a result the print head may become blocked due to dry or congealed ink. Also if the printer is not used regularly, remove the cartridge & store it in a cool dry place and then install it again for reuse. Even if the problem persists then replace the damaged ink cartridges with new Epson Workforce WF-3520DWF Ink Cartridges for best printing results.
