1. Get a damp paper towel.
2. Set the ink cartridge right side up on the damp paper towel so that the ink nozzles are against the towel and hold the cartridge in this position for about 15 seconds.
3. Now wipe the print head (on the bottom where the ink comes out) across in one direction only (left to right) until it looks clean.
4. Next dab the cartridge on the towel to make sure that the ink is flowing.
5. Snap the cartridges back into the printer.
Good Luck!!!!!

Hi!
Did you run a Head Cleaning Cycle after changing the ink cartridges? Run at least Three head cleaning cycle to clean the nozzles of your printer.
Hope this helps...

Many printers especially Photo ones also use colour even when printing Black. so you do need to replace the spent colour cartridge.

If you only need to print in black get a B&W printer not a colour one.

The problem can be two fold. Wrong cartridges, or blocked/damaged inkjet openings. Return it to the seller under warranty if its brand new. If it was fitted with non epson cartridges your warranty may be in question.

But I could almost guarantee the black qand the blue cartridges are faulty or their feed jets are

Hello stellasafo, and to all of you that have Epson R280, RX580(mine),rx595(mine), rx620 and similar RX's, plus CX700F's.
If you get a NEW CARTRIDGE that your printer SAYS its EMTPY here's what you need to do to fix this problem:
You need to reset the cartridge's printhead chipset by reinstalling the cartridge. You can do this by :

PRESSING SETUP ON THE PRINTER, SELECT MAINTENANCE, PRESS OK,THEN SELECT CHANGE INK CARTRIDGE, PRESS OK, THEN PULL THE CARTRIDGE OUT , THEN WAIT 1 MINUTE, THEN REINSTALL THE CARTRIDGE PRESSING FIRMLY UNTIL YOU HERE IT CLICK BACK IN TO PLACE,THEN PRESS OK, YOUR PRINTER SHOULD THEN GO THRU A CHARGING CYCLE AND THEN AFTER ABOUT ANOTHER MINUTE IT SHOULD TELL YOU ITS DONE. AND YOU SHOULD BE GOOD TO GO.

I have also had times that just turning it off, actually I unplugged it too, waited a minute and then plugged it back in and turned it back on and it was fixed.
There is also a troubleshooting guide in you maintenance program with some good tips also and a phone number for more help. Just click the help button until you get to a page that ask " what were you doing when the problem occurred"
Hope this helps.
holler back at me if you still have trouble @ [email protected]

Hi

try reinstalling the ink. if all fails call epson for replacement ink at 562 276 1300

Don't reset anything. Just turn it on and print.

u just have to replace the refilled cartridges.and insert new orignal cartridges.this is a very common problem in epson printers that refilled cartridges work sometimes and sometimes dont.so insert new orignal cartridges to have good printouts.

There are epson ink compatible cartridges in the market that are less expensive but have good quality. Please look for other compatible brands which good quality guaranteed, try those compatible brands which are more popular.
