- tried a new cable still the same i get a notification that i branched an usb device on the computer. In the device manager there are no exclamationmarks but I reinstalled the driver anyway. Setup didn't find the printer so I had to manuallyselect usb printerport. rebooted But still same problem I think something broke in the usb connector in the printer
when you connect the printer to the computer, do you hear a sound or see a notification that a device is connected?
if not , i would try a different usb cable, or try a different usb port. if you do , then it's probably a driver problem, check control panel,system, device manager, hardware, and see if you have an exclhamation mark on the printer, if you do, try to reinstall the driver.

- check the pins inside the usb connector in the printer, if they are bended try to straighten them with a litlle screw driver.

Compatible cartridges still have lots of ink in them (I can hear it swooshing about) but printer says there is no ink in the three colour cartridges and the black cartridge (which is a different brand) is half full. Won't let me print. Any ideas?

I have an Epson dx4400 and some time ago the heads went out of alignment. I have spent at least three hours using the nozzle clean and head alignment functions but it's still no better, is there a factory reset I can try? It's the h alignment that's the problem, there's always a white gap on black and overlap on the other colours. All that trying to re-align does is to swap the position of the gaps/overlaps in the 7 test strips that print. I've done a google seach but all that does is bring up a load of red-flagged sites that want my credit card details. Thanks for any advice. nb, I've had to put this as a 4200 all in one as fixya refuses to believe that there's such a thing as a 4400....
