Dislplay reads "not ready"

Go into your printer settings and tell the printer to use black ink only and see if it works. You may have got a start up cartridge with the printer and it will not print that many copies and the manuf. now have a chip in the ink replacements that will not allow you to remove and refill the ink so when you take it out the printer won't recognize the cartridge the second time.

Hi
May be your late to refilled it and the ink dry
when that problem happened to me I put the ink in hot water
if the ink refill that's don't matter
try that and if that don't help you change the ink

change cartridges

Try reinstalling the printer's driver.

You can download the manual from here, which gives a full explanation on changing ink cartridges:

You can do it manually by turning on the printer, then, as soon as the print head starts to move, pull out the power cord from the printer, or switch off at the mains. The print head will now be free to move (carefully) by hand to the cartridge change position. Replace the cartridges and turn the printer back on. Carry out a cleaning cycle.

If the cartridges have been out for a while, you will no doubt have dried ink blocking the nozzles. Several cleaning cycles may be needed, or other methods, to clear the print nozzles. Report back if this is the case.

Remember in future not to remove a cartridge until you are ready to replace it.

Printhead is dried up and may need to be replaced. The printhead usually has a life kinda like the inks. You should be able to find a printhead from your local fax repair shop and installation should be simple. Once replaced you may install inks and run several cleaning cycles. Please let me know if this helped.

sounds like the door switch might be an issue,, does teh tub light go on /off as you open the door??? if not try manually pushing the switch in a few times.

if it is an inkjet printer then the line that feeds the ink is dried up, may not be worth it, depending on how much you bought it for.

Hi-

Chances are the tubes are clog and you need to dismantle the printer to clean it, if you have tried cleaning the heads several times then nothing change. Might as well have it service or buy a new one, call epson customer service- 562 276 4382 or 1300 so that they will offer you the loyalty website and you can get a new epson printer, discounted in price.

Hope this help
