Epson WorkForce 1100 Inkjet Printer

Your monitor and the printer use different technologies to represent colors, so your printed colors can’t match your screen colors exactly. Try increasing your monitor’s color palette to view a greater range of colors, and then try the following:

• Make sure the paper Type or Media Type setting matches the paper you loaded.



• Make sure Black/Grayscale is not selected in your Windows, Macintosh OS X 10.5, or Macintosh OS X 10.3 and 10.4 printer software.



• For best results, use genuine Epson ink and paper.



• The print head nozzles may need cleaning.



• The ink cartridges may be old or low on ink, and you may need to replace them.



• Try turning off Fix Photo in the Windows printer software.



• With Macintosh OS X 10.5 or Macintosh OS X 10.3 and 10.4, try using Automatic mode.



• Try changing the Gamma setting in your Windows, Macintosh OS X 10.5, or Macintosh OS X 10.3 and 10.4 printer software.



• Use a color management system. Try using the ICM (Windows) or ColorSync (Macintosh OS X 10.3 and 10.4) setting.
  
  In Mac OS X 10.5, you can select ColorSync from the Color Matching pop-up menu.
  
  



• In Windows, try enabling or disabling the Allow Applications to Perform ICM Color Matching setting. To access this setting, click the Speed & Progress button in the Maintenance tab of the printer settings window.
