This might ba an issue with the cartridge holder in which its not recognizing inks or inks are defective. Call Epson for cartridge replacement is reinstalling of inks doesn't work.

Hi Blackburn,
Get you some rubbing alcohol and Q-tips. Disconnect the power from the printer and remove the Ink Cartridges. Using the q-tips and soak them with the alcohol. Clean the electrical connections in each of the cartridge ports. You might go through several Q-tips before geting them cleaned up good. If necessary use Finger nail polish remover instead of Alcohol to get any contaminants off of the connections. Test a site with the fingernail polish remover first before dabbing it all over. I am afraid that it may eat up the electrical connections.

There is no solution, I have tried this myself, there are compatible inks for this product, you just got the wrong ones, However it may only be down to one of the inks, check the ink levels before removing, if all empty, then they are not compatible.

Could have a corrupt driver.
Disconnect
the printer or at least be sure it is turned off. I'd do
both and when the CD software program asks you to connect the printer
to the USB port, do so and it should again work properly.
Hope this helps. Bud

Try removing the cartridges and cleaning the metal contacts with alcohol where the carts sit

Swith machine off

Now try with compatibles
By the way, never mix originals with compatibles.
