When you put the printhead back into the machine, did you seat the dampers correctly?

Error code 00010030 signifies that there is some failure with the Multi Sensor. The Multi Sensor is located on the Printhead Carriage, and consists of a blue light, and the sensor itself. If you look at the Printhead Carriage, you'll notice a graphic of a pair of scissors on the side. Right below that is where the sensor is located. Dust, debris, and excess ink may have accumulated over the sensor, causing it to give a false error code. Clean it, and if that doesn't work, replace the sensor.

Get a new cartridge.

Just fixed this today. Ink from head cleaning is dripping down on the idler gear that runs the exit rollers. The ink gets thicker as it dries and makes the idler gear (attached to a swing arm) to not sweep up into position. The sensor on the left does not trigger, causing the error. Follow the epson_4000_field_repair.pdf to remove right cover, push down on green head release button to move printhead to left. Remove one screw that holds recovery funnel (left square plastic). Have fun cleaning partially dried overflowed ink in gear area. I removed the E-clip and removed the idler arm to clean completely. If adventurous, remove 4 screws holding print capping mechanism (way down) with a long driver and move slightly to the right to allow the two larger nylon gears to be removed. Clean all you can including the funnel and reassemble. Be sure to open up the drip slot from the maintenance tank side so the problem does not repeat
