Epson xp660 my printer has denied black and cyan even after cleaning

re install cartridges, before that wash spoil ink by tissue. and wash cartridges contact points by aerosol.

Nothing at all of cyan and light-cyan?. It might be damage/broken micro pump at head or short circuit. Replace head or buy new printer.

All new cartridges loaded but no black printing. I changed the black cartridge with a second new one but still no black text printing !

Is this Epson 5800 printer a wtite off at this stage ?

You can see the reference on the cartridge itself.
Take it with you when you buy new ones.

Your print head is probably clogged. If you have already tried the cleaning cycle, it's time to take the printer into an Epson repair center to find out what the problem is. More than likely they will have to replace the print head.

hi,i think the problem of ur printer cartridges i is'nt refill....u try to refill it....or clean up ur cartridges.

Sorry but It uses Durabrite ink which tends to turn into hard gel if not printed at least once a week. Its less painful and expensive to just throw the printer out and buy a new one. I recommend the canon PIXMA ip3500. It lets you remove the printhead for cleaning unlike the Epson. If you want to try your luck at unclogging the printer heres a link to a unclogging kit but be warned that results are not guaranteed!

The C82 in addition to clogging also has a problem where the waste ink hose which is supposed to remove excess ink (so the printer dosent get clogged) gets disconnected and so the printer clogs even more. The C84 had this glitch fixed but alot of good that did!

Thanks for reading!

Try replacing the cartridge. Sometimes they do get clogged and won't clear no matter how many cleaning cycles you run.

Buy a new printer

throw it out...have had 3 epson's in our office in the last 5 years and ended up ditching all three...they are junk.
