Probably a broken gear, just maybe something like the pump mechanism which is driven from the paper feed rollor - unless of course you dropped something inside. it really is difficult to say with out looking, the reason I suggested the above is that I am assuming it is a cyclic noise rather than a random click, clues like this would help.

Epsn C42 No Yellow

The ink path is probably plugged. Try getting some ink cleaner and a squeeze bulb to purge the path IN the printer by forcing cleaning fluid into the yellow channel (cartridge removed). After it flows, it will likely take a bit to get the yellow flowing. If you have a refill kit, you could "encourage" the flow with it. Nothing you can fix by cartridge, the problem is in the printhead.

How do I make the cartridge move to change position on Epson C44 Plus

To replace an ink cartridge using the maintenance button, follow these steps. Turn the printer on, the power light should be on and not flashing.
Open the printer cover. Press the maintenance button (ink-drop symbol). The print head moves to the black ink cartridge replacement position first. Press the maintenance button again to switch to the color cartridge replacement position.

Hi-

If pressing ink button wont position printhead where you can change the ink, its a hardware failure that you are having. Call Epson and have it replaced. 562-276-1300

To make my Epson printer, model "Epson stylus C42UX" work in India, with Indian ink catridges T038 & T039

This is a tricky one, but there are possibilities.
1. Buy a set of epson C42 cartridges from the cheapest source and keep refilling them - you will need a (very cheap) resetter.
2. Transfer the C42 chip to the C41 cartridge - they are only clipped in place. I don't know if this will work because I only have knowledge of C42 cartridges - the C41 cartridges may be keyed so they wont fit in a C42 cartridge carrier. You may be able to identify a clone manufacturer for which this is possible. You will also need the resetter for this solution.
3. Fit a Continuous ink system (CISS) see for example http://svp.co.uk/products-solo.php?pid=3569&prepg=1
