Printer won't print color

My Epson Stylus CX4600 no longer prints any color other than black.
Tried: cleaning heads, changing ink cartridges, even though it registered as having ink in the old ones.

when you change the ink cartridges you are NOT changing the print head. The print head is in the carrier. If the print head has become clogged or worn then usually it needs to be replaced. Unfortunately it us probably cheaper to buy a new printer.

If you're certain that it's not a clogged head then you could get a new head and snap it in yourself.

You can try cleaning the contacts with an alcohol pad before forking out the $50 odd dollars it costs for a new head.

There are also options in the various printer programs that set your printing jobs to monochrome, won't hurt to check that.

Good luck

My grandma gave me her used Epson Stylus CX4600, but didn't print well. I bought new ink cartridges and installed them and it still only prints in black and white. I've cleaned the head several times and still nothing.
