Epson Stylus Photo R200 InkJet Printer - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Had the same problem and found its a part underneath the cartridges. You have to remove whole cartridge carrier, it's the printer head that can pop up. Easy to pop back down but you have you remove top covers. Good luck.

It will print with no ink it will just be patchy. It is also best to not let them run out of ink as they dry up in the print nozzle a pain to get working again and uses a lot of ink as you need to do several head cleans. You may need to turn it of at the power point then after 3 minutes turn it back on again. Also reboot your computer it may have not have started properly. This should reset it.

There are settings that should allow you to specify the page size usually in the printer program that is installed on your computer as well as if you were using your printer as a stand alone device ,it will not be a problem with your Mac or printer but perhaps the instruction menu not been user friendly , I suggest you look at your printer settings in trouble shooting under paper loading etc or paper size as even the very cheap printers allow for smaller paper sizes even envelopes .You might try the print preview which should let make changes if need be .

Your printer memory is full and it needs to wait to take on more data files for printing.

Most ink jet printers have a self cleaning you can do.
The fact that you're getting shades of green usually indicate that the red is not printing properly.

Self cleaning should take care of it

both light are blinking at the same time or blinking alternatively ?
if both blinking same time, it's a fatal error.. means it could be something wrong with the carriage or board or encoder belt...
if the light blink alternatively, it means the waste ink counter need to be reset and ink pad need to be replaced.

my printer is model no r230. my printer is two red light flashing.

Hi!I believe your waste ink pad counter registers that it is already full.You may reset this counter by using the SSC Service Utility for Epson. You may download it here:http://www.ssclg.com/epsone.shtmlReset and Reboot.

Parts inside your printer are near the end of their service life. See your printer documentation.

check cartridge remove and re insert again and try

You need to reset waste ink counter. Use SSC Utility or R230 Adjusment program. Find at indoreset.blogspot.com. Don't forget to replace waste ink pad, or just extend outlet pipe of head cleaning mech to outside bottle.

Regarding the Epson Artisan 800, I must thank FixYa and ask that the search for a solution be discontinued.Yesterday, I had an unfortunate accident while trying to unclog the print head which had been printing poorly over the last three months. I used a syringe to force a solvent solution through the clogged head. To my utter surprise the supply line exploded with a loud "POP" meanwhile spraying ink all over the place. At this point it was clear that it was pointless trying to redeem the old Artisan 800. Thank you FixYa. Henry.
