Epson CX2900 problem

Greetings from the Philippines!
I have here a problem with my Epson CX2900 all-in-one. When I turn it on the paper rollers run continuously for some 10 seconds ( longer than what it used to), and the ink carriage doesnt move ( it used to sweep quickly to the left then returns to its original position ). then the Power On as well as the Error lights flash continuously. At this state no printing or scanning can be made. The Epson suite in windows reports that the printer is busy or not ready, or paper jam, or shows there's no ink in all cartridges.
The printer has CIS installed with cartridges that resets automatically. Been using this printer for about 1.5 years.
Could you please help me with this? Thank you very much :- )

If you are getting a 'carriage jam' error as soon as you turn on your Epson printer with no tasks in progress, then check for any piece of paper stuck in the carriage. Remove the paper carefully. If the paper tears, part of it might remain inside the paper path and damage the product.

Fix 'Carriage Jam' : Open Door, clear carriage jam,
and then press OK to continue' error message
Turn off the printer and open it to see where the paper is stuck.
Manually move the carriage toward the opposite side.
Check the paper path and remove any piece of paper or any other object that is stuck in the path.
Reconnect the power cord and turn on the printer.

Hi tried to use the ssc software for my epson cx2900, it installs and runs, but i get an error message "Device Not Found". What to do? Tx. I've done reset before, using Indoreset, but this time,...

Hi,

The SSC utility is not compatible with the CX2900 so that won't work.. You would need to locate and use an adjustment utility of the type used by Epson service technicians to be able to reset.

The only source that I currently know of for the CX2900 is available from 2manuals.com here

You may find it for free elsewhere but as yet I haven't found a copy.

Hope that helps.
