my email address is jcrd peoplepc com I've run into this a lot on HP printers...it is very frustrating... Sometimes I replace the cartridge(built in head, not tanks like Vivamart epson) and that fixes it. On tank type (4 separate cartridges)with one head on the carriage, all you can do is replace the main head, with it's PC circuit. Another possibility is mis-alignment of the PC circuit on the cartridge with the contacts on the head. Try leaving the carriage hold down cover "unclicked" or just lying down on the cartridges enough to clear the frame. Let me know if that works. Like I say it happens a lot on HP printers with all-in-one head & ink cartridges, which have a lot of small contacts. It only takes on poor contact to cause blank page. thanks JC in Denver, colo.

Hmmm. . .check to see if you loaded it right? Is the ink actually printing out? Might be some missing pieces or broken pieces since they are only compatible and not the designated design. Check to see if the seller refurbished this product because most of them are.

Yes but the printer reported empty cartridge. I'll try again .. no time at present.

I have an older Epson and was wanting to replace it for that very reason. I can't print anything when any color is out. So it says I need to replace the light blue and won't let me print anything until I do. Since I never use color, I'm guessing the blue just dried out. At any rate, I can't figure how to override that and just use black. Maybe it is just an Epson thing, as you said, to get us to buy more ink. I'm with you, I want to keep going until the ink fades and I can really see it is almost out.

From the Maintenance tab in Printing Preferences, do a nozzle check to see if any colors are missing from the test pattern. If so, do a head cleaning. You may have to alternate between these steps several times. Try another cartridge. If that doesn't fix it, you may have to take it to an Epson repair shop. They can soak the nozzles in a cleaning solution. The shop I use charges $50 if they can fix it, nothing if not.

I am assuming that you have tried to clean the print heads. This happened to me, and in the end I had to return the printer. It was under warranty and was replaced by Epson.

Same Problem. Epson help center could not "help." I am returning the printer. So disappointed.

Sounds like one of the Colored Ink cartridges ink nozzles is clogged. Try running the Ink Head Cleaner that your printer has under the printer properties. If after cleaning a couple times, it still is not working properly, you might want to try a Ink Solvent to clean the heads. If all else fails you might want to replace the ink cartridge completely and I believe that the clogged / bad ink cartridge would be the Cyan color.

My experience has been that it just stops dead in the middle of a print job if ANY cartridge is "empty". This is very annoying, especially if (as is often with me) I'm only printing B/W.

I called the seller and the answer that they gave me was to just wait until the printer says the cartridge is empty then remove it and replace it. You have to physically check the cartridges to see if there is enough ink.

Have you tried unplugging the unit for a few minutes and let it reset when turned back on? Try cleaning the contact points on the cartridge and the printer with a touch of alcohol on a q-tip, let it dry before putting it back in the unit.

Missing colours sounds like a clogged printhead. As for the cartridge...I don't know why

My black cartridge has nothing coming out, even though it registers full. Put a new one in & it works so it is not my printer. Did you send me a cartridge that is empty? What can I do?

You will probably have to open the printer and just press the cartridge, sometimes they get loose, if it still doesn't work, you will have to clean the nozzles of your printer.

looks like the one I have ....in my case with Epson nx415 looks ok but I just using it to reset the refill ink cartridges and for now work perfect. I am not using it with the original Epson cartridges because are useless.. this unit are not expensive so I just suggest you to try it and follow the instructions carefully. I get one from INKOWL.com. Good luck.

How old is the unit? When you call Epson, they are going to ask you to use the printer utility to clean printer nozzles and the heads and it uses up a ton of ink. They will walk you through it, but that is what happened to ours and they sent us a replacement (it was a refurb), it did the same thing, and they sent us a brand new one. I would insist on a new one if it comes down to getting a replacement.

either remove and replace the ink cartridge the printer thinks is empty, or try just opening and shutting the unit like you are going to replace the ink cartridge. I simply open and shut the machine. there is no way that I know of to stop the printer from thinking its out of ink.
