My epson stylus cx6400 says printer error check documentation and if necessary call service. I saw that somebody else had this problem and the solution but it isn't workiing. What is the maintenance (spanner) button? My printer does not say this anywhere. Also my stop and clear are two different buttons.

try doing 4 head cleans and then leave the printer powered up over night. Don't print or anything else after the head cleans until the morning then do one more head clean (this soaks the print head in ink overnight and then the final head clean should clear any obstruction. If the printer still refuses to print in colour, you could try replacing the cartridges anyway as they can be faulty. The only problem is thaty sometimes it's cheaper to buy a new priner. (how silly is that!) By the way, are you using compats or epson original ink carts?

Sounds as though the printer is defective.

SOURCE: Printer reads-"Printer error-see your documentation"... no clue as to what to do.

pull the plug and unplug it again..or load and unload your cartridge..,or change the cartridge you using...maybe the printer don't recognize the printhead..

Printer reads- see documentation

hi....take it to a tech to check about the system control chip... the control chip would have gone bad... and they will replace u with a new chip..or else Try manually moving the head carriage back and forth a few times!
Also check, if there isn't some piece of paper lodged inside, if yes try to remove it carefully!..

these are the possible solutions u can try out...
thank u
