I just replaced my ink cartridges for my Epson Workforce 600 printer and the magenta and yellow colors do not print. The status shows that both are still full of ink, but when I do the nozzle check, nothing of those colors prints.

Try "Nozzle cleaning" and if the problem persist, try "Deep nozzle cleaning". Try them only once or else the ink will run out very quickly.
If the ink cartridges are not genuine Epson, remove them and buy genuine cartridges. If needed, repeat the procedure with them.
Non-original consumables very often clog the printhead.

    What is Deep nozzle cleaning? I don't see this anywhere on the machine or manuals.

Why my epson 600 workforce prints pink or magenta

printer mixes colors to get final color. So if it prints Magenta then it may be missing Blue or Cyan. Try printing a blue color or a Cyan.
Suggest forcing printer to do a deep clean if ink tanks are full.

"Open the Applications folder, open the EPSON Printer Utility3, select WF 600 Series, and click OK. Then select Head Cleaning. 3. Follow the on-screen instructions to start the cleaning cycle, which lasts around 2 1/2 minutes."

I just replaced all four ink colors in my Epson 600 workforce and its not printing right. its all yellow and pink.

It appears that some ink nozzles are blocked or not seated properly.

Go to the Epson support site below and enter Epson WorkForce 600 as your model. Then go to Troubleshooting Guide in the list on the right of the web page

Epson Workforce 840 prints yellow as purple, then panel blinks continuously saying print error has occurred

There isn't much to go wrong in a printer. If you've had the cartridge for a couple of months, I would venture a guess that you ran out of "Yellow" ink. One other possibility if that the wrong driver is installed for your printer (if this is a recent purchase) and that the driver being used is pulling Magenta instead of Yellow.

Epson Workforce 610 blocked (or malfunctioning) nozzles

With epsom ink jet printers the printhead is on the machine, not he cartridge as with many printers. This complicates things!
I suggest you get some cleaner cartridges put them in and run one single cleaning cycle each day until the cartridge is finished. Remember just One cleaning each day,,, this is to allow time for the cleaner to sit and "possibly" dissolve the blockage.
It is about your only chance of salvage.
An Ink jet printers worst enemy is sitting for long periods of time without printing on a regular basis, The ink dries in the print head nozzle!

I have a used C60. I have replaced both ink cartridges with Epson cartridges. When printing in color, the colors are not accurate. For example, red comes out yellow. Also, there are lines running through...

Hi there. The reason for your problem is that the colour cartridge contains cyan, magenta and yellow ink, plus a black cartridge of course. All the other myriad colours are produced by mixing these four basic colours. So, if you print red, it requires ink from both the magenta and yellow cartridges. Thus if your red produces a yellow print, it means your magenta is not printing. This can be due to a number of reasons, mainly an empty or faulty magenta cartridge or blocked magenta print nozzles.

If you wish me to help you with sorting out the lack of magenta, please post a new comment to this effect.
