Question about Epson Stylus Color 1160 InkJet Printer

Printer Feed Problems

I have an Epson inkjet 1160 wide carriage. The paper is loaded to print. The first piece of paper will start to feed but then will pass through. Sometimes the next piece will catch and print and then other times a few pieces will pass through before it will catch. It will almost always happen with the first piece and then will happen randomly through-out if I am printing 20 or 30 copies.

I use 24lb. paper, which is what I have always used. It happens with all papers. Heavyweight stock, labels, cardstock etc.

Epson DFX9000 printer is printing blank pages

On mine it was to turn off the printer. Then while holding down the paper feed button, press the power button. Let go of the paper feed right away as soon as you hear it start up. When it's done you should get a printout with a number at the top.

Epson 1520 printer - Paper feed issues

I have an Epson R1800 and when I load Roll 13X19 matte media and try to print I either get a "jammed media" message or the printer trys to print without feeding the media.

I had a similar problem trying to print epson pro canvas. I finally learned the "trick". First I generally cut an appropriately sized pice of canvas from the roll. Then I attach a HEADER. This is dome by cutting a piece of 13" wide photo paper in a three inch length (so you have a piece 13" x 3") . Draw a line at 1.5 inches and place some sort of adhesive (I use a double sided tape gun) on one side of the line. Line up the canvas/paper with the line and make sure it sticks to the header.

Now you should be able to manually feed the header/paper into the printer - once the header passes the correcct point the printer will "grab" it a position it correctly for printing.

Hope this helps

Epson c90 paper feed problem

Is the message general error? The problem is tchip. When turn on chip is recognized by printer, but when start to print, printer "read" some information from the chip. Here is the error. Some pin at the chip for redaing the existence of chip, other pin for reading the information. Check connector between chip and carriage.

Epson stylus c68 paper jam

Hi Guest.

Turn your printer off and load a single sheet of paper. Move the rubber wheel to anywhere. Turn the printer on and watch what happens in the paper feed slot (in official Epson parlance this is the "automatic sheet feeder" or ASF). You should see the rubber wheel etc set into the correct start postion. Then press the paper feed button and watch again. The plastic "wall" behind the piece of paper should move forward, pushing the sheet into the rotating rubber wheel. This should feed the paper into the "ready to print position". If this doesn't happen, it means something has come adrift inside the paper feed system. To investigate this further requires the printer to be dismantled. Either take it to a technician, or if you want to have a go at doing this yourself, post a new comment to this effect and I will help you do this.
