This could be to old for those posting above but I had found these instructions back in 2004 and it worked for me when this happens to me on my epson 860:

1. turn off the machine for at least 5 minutes and disconnect the interface cable to the computer
2. push and hold down the "ink" button and the "paper" button and turn the printer on.
3. When the "paper" light flashes quickly release both the buttons and then immediately press and hold down the "ink" button only for at least 10 seconds.

You will need to try this several times to get the sequence correctly.

hope this helps

Make sure you are using original cartridges or a good compatible. If all error lights blinks, the printer needs to be cleaned. Inside the printer there's a ink tank where all the ink extracted from the cartridges during the cleaning cycle goes. That tank needs to be replaced. A service center can do the work, if you want to do it by yourself check the "epsonianos" yahoo group for further advice.
