Hi to this forum

The printer is only a few weeks old, with mostly text printing at first. Color prints, especially with colored area parts, now show horizontal stripes from top (0.5 mm) to bottom (increasingly up to 2 mm) where everything appears lightened. The alignment of the printheads is correct. Perhaps this is a known problem with this newer model? Similar problems can be found with old models. Does anyone have a workable solution before this becomes a warranty issue?
Thanks, Stephan

Solved: In the meantime, I had contact with the Epson service chat. Although I don't think this is a good thing for a new device, the advice to do a multiple cleaning of the print nozzle one after the other helped. After 2 cleaning passes it was ok and I hope this problem will not return so soon. Maybe this will help other users bit build similar Epson printers.

For me, as it has been written in my post before
