4. Press the green button next to the LCD screen until you see
Nozzle check displayed, then press the x Color button
to print the nozzle check.
5. After the nozzle check finishes printing, make sure each line
is complete, without any gaps or missing dots:
If any dots are missing, clean the print head as described in the
next section.
Running the Head Cleaning Utility
If you need to clean the print head, follow these steps:
1. Press the Setup button to enter Setup Mode.
2. Press the green button next to the LCD screen until you see
Head Cleaning displayed, then press the x Color
button to run a head cleaning cycle.
Caution:
Never turn off the CX6400 while the message Head Cleaning
appears on the LCD screen, unless it hasn't moved or made
noise for more than 5 minutes.
3. When the message Head Cleaning disappears, repeat the
nozzle check to verify that the print head is clean.
If you don't see any improvement after cleaning three or
four times, turn off the CX6400 and wait overnight. This
lets any dried ink soften. Then try cleaning the print head
again.
Caution: When you don't turn on your CX6400 for a long time, the
print quality can decline. It's a good idea to turn it on at least once a
month to maintain good print quality.
Replacing an Ink Cartridge
If the ! error light on the EPSON Stylus CX6400 is flashing,
or you see an ink cartridge error message on the LCD screen
or computer monitor, you need to replace one of the
cartridges. When a cartridge is more than six months old, you
may need to replace it if printouts don't look their best. Also,
replace the cartridge if the quality doesn't improve after
cleaning and aligning the print head.
Use these ink cartridges within six months of installing them
and before the expiration date on the package:
❏ Black (high capacity): T043120
❏ Black (standard capacity): T044120
❏ Cyan: T044220
❏ Magenta: T044320
❏ Yellow: T044420
❏ Color Multi-Pack: T044520
Note:
Availability of black ink cartridge types varies by location. The high
capacity black ink cartridges are recommended as replacement
cartridges for users who print frequently. Users who print
infrequently may want to choose the standard capacity black ink
cartridge. Your printer includes the high capacity black ink cartridge.
Caution:
To ensure good results, use genuine EPSON ink cartridges and do
not refill them. Other products may cause damage to your CX6400
not covered by EPSON's warranty.
When you need new ink cartridges, contact your dealer. You
can also call the EPSON Store at (800) 873-7766, or visit
www.epsonstore.com (U.S. sales only). In Canada, please call

Warning:
Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children. If ink gets on your
hands, wash them thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets in
your eyes, flush them thoroughly with water.
Caution:
To avoid damaging the EPSON Stylus CX6400, never move the
print head by hand.
You cannot print if any ink cartridge is empty. Leave the empty
cartridge installed until you have obtained a replacement.
Otherwise the ink remaining in the print head nozzles may dry out.
