Inkjets have very fine fluid channels, and if the ink dries in them, they're jammed. The driest, cloggiest part of cloggville. Cleaning cycles might have helped before it got clogged, but now we're in Cloggville. Good news: you don't have to fiddle with print drivers, software updates, cables, firmware, none of that.īad news: this ain't going to fix itself by running cleaning cycles. If you really want a picture of blank paper I'll attatch it, but that's all I get from this.
Blank paper was printed each time Pictures/audio/video: Tried 3 cleaning cycles, with intermediate prints between each and an hours wait betweent the second and third. Ran nozzle check/head alignment test, refer to first image link, only a faint magenta print My steps are pretty much as above, but TL DR Original or 3rd party cartridges: Original (i.e, Epson, from a store, not the original cartidges).Driver name and version: The most recent, I updated everything but can't find the version number currently.I really appreciate the help everyone, I'm out of my depth and I know it. It looks likes there's tonnes of ink coming out, but nothing is printing, and I don't want to be out of all my black ink due to cleaning cycles, given I bought these cartridges today, any advice? Should I just tell the company my printer is broken and if they could send the contract in the mail that would be great? I'd try harder, but the thing locks in place after it's 'printed' something, so I can't get under to the nozzle itself to clean. But I did see a suggestion of trying a damp paper towel so that would absorb the ink, and maybe get things moving. So I tried looking into cleaning the print head, and its a bit daunting given I don't really have the tools I need, no screwdrivers to speak of now.
Then, I read that it the print head might be clogged, so I did another cleaning cycle. Images of those attempts are below, the magenta seems to print but I don't really know what it's telling me? I did an ink level check on the new cartridges, they looked fine, and then did a nozzle and head alignment test mainly because I know nothing about printers other than ink cost an arm and a leg. So I went to the shops to get new ink, popped them in, tried to print my document, blank paper came out. Out of Cyan and Black, but ok otherwise, software and scanning capabilites work fine.īut I need to print a contract out, sign it, and scan it for a job offer. The title basically says it, I moved into my flat last year around this time, and this printer was left by the previous tenants.
