fishing-girl

i have been on holiday for a week and when i tried to print some of the colours failed to print, i have used repeatedly the head cleaning and nozzle checks with no joy. is there something else i can use or do to unblock the heads ( 3 out of 6 heads blocked ). p.s there is plenty of ink left in cartridges.
thanks for any help

does it havea cartridge replacement wizard? I had the same problem with my c44. Run the wizard ,took cartridges out and put same ones back in.

Try this util, it will clean heads and monitor ink res.

Are you using compatible cartridges, by any chance, or Epson originals?

I had the same problem with my R200 yesterday as I hadn't used it for ages since it ran out of colour ink and I only just got around to replacing them

I ended up having to run the head-clean and nozzle test several times before it finally cleared. The colours were ok but the black refused to print anything at all to start with, but finally got there

i am using compatable cartridges but have had no problems before. i have changed all cartridges today and still no luck.
