Are they flashing alternately? If so this is a service error and it needs the waste ink counter resetting.

The Reference Manual provides clear instructions on this in the "How to" section. If you don't have a copy, download it from:

If I can clarify anything, report back

An unknown printer error has occurred. Turn the printer off, disconnect the interface cable and turn the printer back on. If error disappears, turn the printer off, reconnect the interface cable and turn the printer back on. If error continues then printer needs service. If printer returns to normal the issue is resolved.

You can try the other software you can use to reset the counter.

Also make sure that on the ssc software, you have selected the correct printer model.

Have you tryed to do a system reset.Its in the owners manual as if you dont do this it will demand to take off weekends!! If it continues to do this then yes as inexpensive these pups are is it worth shipping away and waiting 6 to 10 weeks and have a bill of 100 bucks?? I wouldsay NO but its your printer. Good Luck
