After the installation of new ink cartridges, you need to perform a cleaning as part of the system maintenance to make the newly installed ink cartridges more efficient. You have to use the Epson software to clean the ink cartridges and alignment. Also, make sure that the installed ink cartridges are original.

If you have more questions, please don't hesitate to ask here at HelpOwl. Experts here are always willing to answer your questions to the best of our knowledge and expertise.
