Follow the steps below to clean the print head using the Head Cleaning utility.

if its on ink light it means one or more of the inks is empty, if its the paper light means paper is jammed.
try to turn off/on the printer then load again paper.
I just today threw away my R220. If your 2 red lights are going and the power light is off, then your printer has died. It just happened to me. It sucks, but there is no way to fix it.
This is probably due to the waste ink pads needing replacement. If you still have this problem and would like help solving it, please post a new comment to this effect.
google the software for epson that resets the counter of the printer. I think the name is SSC.... just think of the appropriate search criteria like "reset epson"
