Hi again,
-not sure if you have resolved your issue, but in case you have not...this is a preliminary solution
-if you need more help...just post a comment..as this will automatically put it in my account to see * respond to

-anyway....this is an excellent high quality printer!
-the flashing amber light on the printer indicates that it is offline..ie. not ready to print
-to fix it...
-assuming that there is paper in it & that the cables are fully connected
-on the lower right...press the resume button once (within the 2 button right hand lower area)
-this should put it back online...and help you to print
-if you need further help...just ask

as well...remember to rank...but understand that anything other than a FIX-Ya..actually lowers my rank...so if the above doesn't help...just ask...
thanks

- Hi again...
the flashing light on start-up is actually the Waste Ink pad is full
-it is a tough job to change the pad...but you can override it for awhile...
  • turn off power
  • press & hold RESUME button, then press POWER button
  • continue to hold POWER then release RESUME button
  • Press RESUME Button 2x quick
  • Release both RESUME and POWER
  • Green light will now blink, then stop
  • With Green light on....press RESUME 4x
  • Push Power button to turn printer off
this should resolve the issue
remember to rate the solutions...anything less than FIXYA actually lowers my rank...so if you need further help...just ask....hope it fixya'd
