Carriage cycles normally but no ink on paper.(Stylus color 880)

Printer unused for more than a month. Installed fresh cartridges--ran multiple cleaning cycles--no change. Utility screen indicates reduced ink levels (both cartridges) so I presume print heads gummed up from lack of use. Would I be capable off finding and flushing the print head plumbing???

Turn off printer. Open Case. Move head carriage to parking position. Do suction from outlet pipe of head cleaning mechanic. It's for checking head. is there ink out? If printer not used for long time, may be ink inside head dried. Utility screen just show estimated not actually. If head clog, and do head cleaning more 5 times, screen show ink nearly out, but actually ink tank nearly full.

Just purchased an Epson Stylus Pro 10000 Archival Ink. Nosel check looks good with solid lines, however prints are very light. Ran clean multiple times. Printer came with existing ink and I don't know if...
Old ink loses some of its intensity after about 8 months.
heat/light seems to destroy some of the depth in the ink's shade. i would be completely replacing the cartridges with fresh ones. Constant cleaning uses up so much ink and the casettes will need replacing too often. This raises the cost of your prints.

Epson Stylus 880 - how do I get it to allow an ink change when the low ink indicator is not lit and I hold the button down but the carriage refuses to locate to the left for ink cartridge removal?
Go thru your utility replacement. That should do the trick. It might not look like mine, but similar.

No ink output from Epson Stylus Color 777
I don't have an answer for you but I have the exact same problem.

I have an Epson Stylus Color 777 and I put in new cartridges (black and color) that I bought yesterday (03/05/10).

I pulled the tape off the cartridges and inserted them in their carriages. Everything works like usual except that no ink at all prints on the page. Comes out completely blank.

Epson stylus color 880
This is a very late response to your query, but you did have it in the C46 section. It sounds like you have blocked heads but there could be other reasons such as a faulty print head or main board. If you still require help with this problem, please post a new comment to this effect.

Epson stylus 880 printer
"Turn the printer on while holding down both the ink and paper buttons. When the paper light flashes release both buttons", then hold down the ink button for approx. half a minute until the printer lights flash again then release it. That resets the printer.”
