Sounds like your CISS is the problem. I suggest you get Refillable Cartridges that automatically reset themselves. I have them for a WF840 and they work flawlessly.

SOURCE: epson al cx11nf print problems: Lines on side of output

This could be caused by a dirty lens on the laser unit. Try cleaning the laser window. Open the front panel (where you change the toner) and the right you will see a blue lever/handle - pull it out towards you. Now on the right side panel of the printer you will notice a little plastic panel about 2"x0.75" - open that and you will see inside another handle. Pull this handle out and back in a few times. This draws a cleaner pad across the lens. If toner has fallen onto the lens it makes the are it has fallen onto create blank lines on the print. If this does not solve your issue then the next suspect would be the PCU. Just get another one (same as C1100 if you can borrow one) and try it.

SOURCE: Epson R230 steady 2 red light on.

It may be a general error. It is caused by cartridge error (won't read the chip), cartridge can't move back safely, or "something " slip to the mechanics. If u use the compatible chip (CISS), try to use the original chip first. The last action is turn off the printer for about 1 hour, and turn on back. It's for clearing eprom.

This may be the cartridge itself, take the black ink cartridge out and check the head on it (the part that points in to the printer, usually down) and see if it is dirty or has ink smudges on it.

Blank paper print in R230

try checking the pump assembly of the unit. if it is clogged, the printhead wont clean and theres a possiblility that you will not get a printout. also check the head cable to see if there are no cut traces.

Reddish print out on my epson r230

maybe there's a problem with the magenta cartridge hole and it shoots out too much color. or, the regulator went dead. try replacing the cartridge.
if you have recently refilled it with ink and it wasn't genuine, it might be too wattery (not dense enough). in that case you might want to replace the cartrige anyway so to not get the new inx mixed with the old one and cause it to 'clodh' up (my english is bad ... to prevent the inks making small dense balls to fill up the hole of the cartridge)

Epson R230

If that is the case?

Here is the solution.

Ask your reseller to give you a reseter software.

Maybe because the printer exceeded to it duty cycle.

Duty cycle is printouts maybe about 5000 printouts
