Bottom Margin – Epson WF5390

Post by tolosas »

Hello,

I have been testing the software with an Epson WF5390 and created a color profile with CC1Studio. It has solved most of my color management issues. However, I have one problem: the print quality on the bottom edge is very poor.

The technical manual does mention that both the top and bottom edges may have lower quality, but in my case, it’s too noticeable. Using the “microwave quality” option in super mode helps reduce the issue a little, but when using the original Epson driver, it is not as noticeable.

Could I be configuring something incorrectly? My paper is fast-drying matte.
The "issue" only occurs on the bottom margin

Hello, I recommend to print a "Nozzle check" to make sure that the problem is not related to print head or ink supply problems. You can print it either from the PrintFab application, dialog "Toolbox" or the printer display panel.

If this doesn't help to improve quality, please post a photo of the printed nozzle check and a photo of a print that shows the quality problem at the bottom of the page.
