Epson C82 stopped printing blue
No blue colour was printing. I changed the blue cartridge (ok, cyan) on
my C82, but it's still not printing blue colour. What kind of clog is that and how do I get rid of it? -- Justin Case Jr. * Remove this_ and make warm hot to send email * |

Have you run any cleaning cycles and nozzle checks. You will get longer
cleaning cycles if you do it from the utility menu of the printer. You may need to do quite a few to get the color running again. "Justin Case Jr." wrote in message ... No blue colour was printing.

What kind of clog is that and how do I get rid of it? If the old cartridge wasn't entirely empty one solution is to inject it with some Windex window cleaner and run a few print and then cleaning cycles with the old cartridge in. That will clean crud and encrusted or dried ink from within: as the ink fades you'll know it is working, and then swap back.

It can take more than 6 if it is badly clogged. After you have done 7-8 let
it sit until morning and try it again. "Justin Case Jr." wrote in message ... Safetymom123 wrote: Have you run any cleaning cycles and nozzle checks.

As the printer uses pigmented inks, it's very difficult (not to say
impossible) to recover a clogged printhead. -- Yianni (remove number nine to reply) -- "Justin Case Jr." wrote in message ... Safetymom123 wrote: It can take more than 6 if it is badly clogged.

I've been using non-Epson cartridges, and after I complained to the provider they sent me a new Epson cartridge which I recieved today. I will have time to try that during weekend. -- Justin Case Jr. * Remove this_ to send email * |
