When I print test pages or any other page with contents, I could get these additional rectangular color blocks (all colors) appearing, sometimes they would occur as color streaks (when printing slower). I tried all types of maintenance option on the software side, but not helping. The printer is about 3 months old. I did try to clean the belt, problem went away for 2 days or so, and then came back, cleaning again did not help.

Any tips would be appreciated.

I would contact Epson to arrange a warranty repair/replacement
Thank you. Trying to arrange a warranty but seller is giving a lot of trouble. Just want to explore the situation in the meanwhile, if the problem is identified perhaps I can try to fix it

Since when do you hve this problem ? What happened at that point of time ? Please test with another - shorter USB cable. Can you test the printer on another computer ?

2 weeks ago. Thanks for the suggestions. I tried and none helped. I noticed that if I print a nozzle check page, I see those color block (prints fast), when I print a more colorful sheet, I see streaks instead (prints slower)

You are getting the same problem when you connect the printer to another computer ? Did you try to reinstall the driver ? First remove the printer from the system. Which system are you running - Windows ?

Yup windows 10 with reinstalled driver. And yes same problems with a different computer. I assume it’s the printer issue right? Not the computer or driver issue.

Yes, that's the question - printer or system/environment; I still think you should deal with Epson for warranty in this case.
