Steps to Solve Printer error turn power off and then on again in Epson Printer Step 1:- Turn off the Epson Printer
You should try to unplug the power cable from the wall outlet for nearly 5 minutes. Then power "ON" the Printer again. Check the error is resolved. If the error has not gone, then follow next solution.
Step 2:- Store the Transportation Lock
Make sure that the transportation lock has been removed.
Step 3:- Ensure that CD Tray Is In the Eject Position
If the CD tray is ejected position, make sure press CD tray button to retract the tray with storage position. Never forcefully pull or push the CD tray into position.
Step 4:-Ensure the Paper Is Not Jammed
Turn off the Epson Printer and make sure the paper is not jammed inside the unit.
Step 5:- Ensure the Epson Printer Carriage
In case user Epson Printer with CISS installed to make sure the printer carriage can go left and right smoothly.
Step 6:- Verify the Upper Scanner Part of Printer
Make sure that the upper scanner part of your Epson printer is locked or closed tightly.
Step 7:- Check the Entire Units Function
Initialization routine that gets run on startup checks the entire unit function before completing without an error.
Step 8:- Install Original Epson Ink Cartridges and Run the Printer
If you use CISS then there may be ink tubes preventing to move the carriage from left to right. Then it's recommended for you to install original Epson ink cartridges and run the printer. If there will be NO error that means the reason is the CISS-installed not correctly.
Step 9:- Move the Carriage
Now you need to access the cartridge loading area while off and then move the carriage away from stops just an inch is needed. Next, lifting slightly, make sure that it must move easily. If it appears sluggish at first the ink collection cup is gummed up and needs cleaning.
Step 10:- Clean all Optical Sensors, and Printer
In case the paper path has a sensor that is mounted opposite the size is adjustment slide on the paper tray. Typically a small opto-sensor it can be blocked with dust. The best solution is to disassemble the printer and clean all optical sensors, paper feed sensors, encoder strip, and disc encoder.
I hope the issue is resolved.

SOURCE: two red light blinking

Do you see any flag message like " end of service life-------". You should find a resetter for the printer, its a utility program.

Or its a paper jam, or dirty ink chip connector.

If both red and green lights are blinking, it usually means that your waste ink pads need replacing. This requires dismantling of the printer and resetting of the protection counter. If you feel up to it, respond with your e-mail address and I will send you instructions - but it's not easy.

Sony bravia kdl55hx729 3d led tv turns on 3 seconds shows picture than four red flashes

Hello,
the error light sequence that you are seeing is indicating a "backlight error". Most likely you have a bad inverter board -the board that powers up the back-lights behind the display panel. They might be available via ebay if you are a DIYer, or you need to call for sony service.
Good Luck!

Charging Conventions

  • The majority of laptops will display a solid green, blue or purple battery light to indicate that the battery is fully charged. Most manufacturers indicate that a laptop is in the process of charging by displaying a solid or blinking green, orange, blue or purple light. If your battery indicator light is green, blue or purple, the battery is probably functional, regardless of whether the light is blinking. If the light is solid orange, the laptop is probably in the process of charging.

Battery Error Coneventions

  • Many battery manufacturers use rapidly blinking lights to indicate that a battery's charge level is low. In general, a laptop will rapidly blink orange or red when its charge drops below a certain level until the computer is plugged into a power outlet and charged. If your laptop's battery indicator continues to blink rapidly in orange or red or if it remains red even when it is plugged into the charger, it indicates a problem with your battery or the charger.

Epson r230 general error

Blink alternately or not? If alternately, the message is not "general error". but "service required" It's true to reset waste ink counter. But, i think it's not service required. when trun on printer ready? But when start to print red lights blink at same time? Problem with chip at ink tank. Check connector at chip and at head carriage. It's may be dirty, and not good connection. try to use another chip.
