SOURCE: paper not feeding

This could be caused by several parts, the most likely is the paper eject sensor lever & spring being out of position. Get a stiff piece of A4 card such as the backing from a note pad. Make sure the print head is in the parked position (fully right). Position card in the feed hopper and push through the feed mech. Open the top and watch for the card to come through the printer. This should realign the lever and also clear any obstructions in the paper path. Always try to remove paper jams in the direction of the paper feed, pulling backwards can damage levers etc.

Please take a moment to rate this solution. Thanks.

SOURCE: epson c90 paper feed problem

Is the message general error? The problem is tchip. When turn on chip is recognized by printer, but when start to print, printer "read" some information from the chip. Here is the error. Some pin at the chip for redaing the existence of chip, other pin for reading the information. Check connector between chip and carriage.

I have an Epson R1900, this problem just started, it will print a line and advance the paper while printing but prints the same image or text on the next line, paper advance issue or a timing issue?

Based on the symptoms you described, it sounds like there may be a timing issue with your Epson R1900 printer. The erratic spacing and repeated printing of the same image or text on the next line suggest that the paper advance mechanism is not functioning properly. This could be caused by a number of factors, including a worn or damaged paper feed roller, a misaligned paper feed mechanism, or a malfunctioning sensor that controls the paper advance timing.
To troubleshoot this issue, you can try the following steps:
  1. Check the paper feed roller for wear or damage. If it is worn or damaged, it may need to be replaced.
  2. Check that the paper is loaded correctly in the printer, and that it is not jammed or wrinkled.
  3. Check that the paper thickness setting in the printer driver matches the paper you are using.
  4. Clean the paper feed mechanism and paper feed roller with a soft, lint-free cloth.
  5. Reset the printer by turning it off, unplugging it from the power source, and leaving it unplugged for at least 10 minutes before plugging it back in and turning it on again.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, you may need to take your printer to a qualified technician for repair or replacement of faulty parts.

I am trying to print my guest receipts and it is only printing out a quarter of the sheet with no ink.

hello, lets see if we can seperate problem with computer and printer, try running printers self test, i am curios if the machine will print properly, turn printer off, then hold paper feed button and turn machine on, paper will feed and print, once the first test pass, if you want to print the rest, press paper feed button, and machine will print and cut paper, this test is rather a little long, but it will give you info regarding paper feed, and cutting as well as impressions. if paper is dragging, check to see if the paper in machine is in correctly, you might want to check this out first, if the paper is in correctly, then problem is feeding, this is a little hard to clean, but you might want to try some isoproply alcohol and put some on the lead in paper, just enough to get paper wet, and try to allow machine to feed in, or maybe, if paper is already feeding in wet some area before going into machine with alcohol, and press feed button, and allow the paper to feed thru. tear off paper and try the printer test again. if still fails then machine has a problem and will need service.

Printer does not attempt to pick up paper but gives out of paper message and or flashing paper sign on panel

steps:
(a) driving a pickup roller, picking up printing paper stacked in a paper cassette, and then, feeding the picked up printing paper to an image forming unit
(b) after picking up the printing paper in step (a), checking to determine whether or not the printing paper has been fed to the image forming unit(c) when it has been determined in step (b) that the printing paper has not been fed and a paper feed error has been generated, again driving the pickup roller, so as to attempt to pick up the printing paper stacked in the paper cassette again.

Printer feeds in 2 or 3 sheets of paper at a time and then jams

Dears eveenz,
It seems that paper feed roller of your printer is broken. This part is integrated in drive assy. You need to replace drive assy of the printer in order to feed the paper properly. I plan to discuss this topic at Inkjet Printer Forum since I cannot post image more than 150 kb here. Explanation with image will make you know more easily. Please send me your mail to [email protected] so I can contact you as soon as I finish my post there.
Please rate me when you find this answer be useful for you

Lexmark X73 print/paper problem

Same problem here. Went thru a few tests with Lexmark but didnt help. They next said it would be best to get new one since repair cost would be higher. Thru front door I do see a spring that moves freely. That must be broke. After their help they sent email for 20% off.
