I filled the Epson genuine black ink but the orange light in the ink indicator blinking and the status of black ink shows only 1%. please help. Printer is Epson L210

Did you refill the cartridge? If so, then you will need to reset a chip on the cartridge somehow. Usually epson doesn't sell "refill" ink unless it is an EcoTank series printer.

How to reset counter workcentre 6505dn?

Try this link:
Read the Billing Meter The total number of printed pages can be reviewed at the Printer Control Panel, on the Configuration Page, and in CentreWare Internet Services (CWIS).
Three meters are available:

  • Total Impressions
  • Color Impressions
  • Black Impressions
The billing meter counts the number of pages that were printed properly.
  • 1-sided prints, including N-up, are counted as one impression.
  • 2-sided prints, including N-up, are counted as two.

    NOTE: During 2-sided printing, if an error occurs after one side is printed properly, it is counted as one.
  • Color documents converted using an ICC profile on applications with the Color (Auto) setting can print in color, even if displayed in black and white. The data prints in color even if it seems to be black and white data on the Display Screen. In that case, the number of Color Impressions is increased.

    NOTE: Grayscale images printed with the composite black setting count as color pages because color consumables are used. Composite black is the default setting on most printers.
  • When printing automatic 2-sided printing, a blank page can be inserted automatically depending on the settings in the application. In this case, the blank page is counted as one page.
View the Billing Meters:
IMPORTANT: The Bill Meters track the total number of pages printed for the life of the printer; it cannot be reset.
To view the total number of pages printed:
  1. Press the [System] button on the Control Panel.
  2. Press the [Up] or [Down] arrow button until "Billing Meters" is selected, and then press the [OK] button. The Print Volume Report will be printed.
  3. Press the [Down] arrow button to scroll to the required meter. The number of printed pages is displayed below the name.
  4. Press the [Return] button to exit the Billing Meters menu.

Why is the light flashing on the right side

If the light flashing is the "light bulb like button" or the "Ready/Light" button, it means that either the printer is:

• The printer is busy receiving and processing data or printing.
• The printer is printing a directory, font list, menu settings pages, or Print Quality Test Pages.


If it's Busy:
• Wait for the message to clear.
• Press and release Cancel to cancel the print job.
• Press and hold Cancel to reset the printer.


If it's printing a directory, a font list, menu settings pages, or Print Quality Test Pages:
• Wait for the pages to print. The Busy message is displayed as the pages print. The Ready light is on when the
printing stops.
• Press and release Cancel to cancel printing.
• Press and hold Cancel to reset the printer.

Cleaned C5180 but will not print in black

Hi,

Try running the cleaning process a few times. If its still not working, buy another black cartridge and stop refilling it with cheap ink that can easily clog the internals and complete cease function. If its already clogged, it will cost more to fix than the cost of a new printer.


Thank you !!

Tally 2280+. While printing, goes offline and displays paperjam.

Normal 0 I suggest you get a sheet of Card Stock (Heavy paper) and place it in the feed way. Then press the print button applying a slight amount of pressure on the Card Stock so it will feed through the printer. The reason for this is in some cases I have been able to clear the paper track of debris that was deposited there over time.
Worth a try, as I have fixed a number of printers this way, saving costly repairs.
Hope this helps. Bud
