I had the flashing lights (Epson R1800) too. Both the ink
and paper flashed rapidly at the same time.
After intense searching on the net, I tried just about
everything. SSC service utility did
Nothing. Turning printer off and on also didn’t help.
Turning printer off then pressing the paper and ink buttons,
then turning power on, then waiting for both lights to flash, releasing them
and pressing the ink button for 10 seconds also didn’t help.
After days of this I got frustrated, packed the POS back
into the box and put it up for sale
On Craigslist. No takers… I was about to put it out to the
curb ($540 printer sat in the box for almost a year) but decided to do one last google and found
someone talking about the print head moving along the rail.
Suggestion was to turn printer off and see if print head
traveled freely back and forth. Ok I thought, Pulled the printer back out of
the box and set it up again. Reinstalled software and turned it on. Red lights
flashing again! Ok, press the ink button to move head to home, then turn
printer off. Then I tried to move head along rail. It moved freely a couple of
inches to the left then stopped like something was blocking it.
Took my flashlight out and could not see anything in the way
so pushed down on the cartridge cover and heard a “click”….. Duh! The freakin’
cover was not closed! Now the head would move left and right all the way so I
turned the printer on and to my amazement NO more flashing red lights! I was
both thrilled and depressed (at my stupidity) for not seeing this earlier.
I will post this everywhere I can to remind people that the cartridge
cover is the FIRST thing you should check upon seeing both red lights flashing
rapidly!!!!!

If both red and green lights are blinking, it usually means that your waste ink pads need replacing. This requires dismantling of the printer and resetting of the protection counter. If you feel up to it, respond with your e-mail address and I will send you instructions - but it's not easy.
SOURCE: EPSON tx100 refuses to print - ink light on
ink light on? Check status monitor. Usually after jammed paper, printer trouble to recognized ink. Do change ink tank procedure, unplug and plug again ink tank.
