I phoned Epson up about this. As posted above, clean the printer heads. But what the manual doesn't say is that if the cleaning process doesn't work first time you have to turn the printer off and back on again before running the clean again. Otherwise the printer doesn't do the clean function properly, second time round.
I've also found that if I leave my Epson switched on all the time, I have fewer problems with print quality and the need for head cleaning is reduced.

Epson are cr4p, try gently rubbing the bit that disperses the ink with a soft rubber (one thats at the end of a pencil, not the other type 
). If that doesnt work then take it back! Also is it a genuine cartridge?
