How to Fix Printer Color Problems Epson? | Printer Tales
Why is the Epson printer not printing in color?
The root cause behind the issue is the ink not being able to flow properly through the nozzles.
Whether you have left some ink in the tank or some get crusted on the print head, if the ink is not flowing, it is not coming out onto the paper.
There is a possibility that the print software is not detecting the hardware properly.
Here are some problems you may face once your Epson printer stops printing color prints.
Low ink levels
The software will stop ink delivery even if there are still a few drops in the tank. The software will allow you to replace the ink so that it won't interrupt your workflow.
Blocked nozzles
The nozzles are so small that a small amount of dust or dirt will stop the ink from flowing. The ink will not flow without cleaning, and you will receive monochrome prints.
Dried up ink
If you haven't used your printer, the ink may dry out and stop the flow. To prevent this, print every once in a while.
Software settings
Printer settings can affect the output of your prints. If you set them incorrectly, you'll end up with prints that aren't in the correct colors.
Outdated drivers
Your printer uses drivers to communicate with your computer. If your printer doesn't have the correct drivers installed, it can misinterpret the signals and print with a different or no color.
