I have the same problem. Everything on the printer is working just fine. It'll do a test page just fine, so everything's working right. The %$^ thing just won't print. It makes noise like it's printing when you give it a print job, but it spits out blank pages.
Which lights are blinking red? What is the rate of the flashes? I'll assume that one of the blinking lights is the power light (just means error).
If the either of the ink cartridge lights is blinking rapidly, the cartridge may not be seated correctly. Try reseating the cartridges and then press OK to clear the error. If it is a less rapid flash it could be that the print head isn't reading the cartridge ink level correctly. Please note: refilled or non-Epson cartridges may not be read correctly due to information stored in a chip on the cartridge or in the printer.
In this case the problem may be in the print head and Epson doesn't recommend cleaning this yourself. You can replace it. (On other inkjets, pop out the cartridges, remove the print head and wipe with soft, lint-free cloths or q-tips dampened with bottled or distilled water (wring out excess water). On each section, you wipe away from the nozzles. Then wipe off the inside of the print head carriage (contacts) as well. Dry everything with a dry cloth and reassemble the printer.)
If the Check paper light is blinking check for a paper jam or the printer looking for a different paper size.
Hello,
you may have probably gotten a fake ink for your printer, because Hp printer will never work or print not until u put in a genuine ink from Hp. Try to purchase another genuine ink and see if the problem will occur again.
Thanks

luck.
I believe that the top light is the low printer cartridge signal. Did you replace the cartridge or just take it out and reinstall it? Did you use a new HP cartridge or refilled cartridge?
Try a new ink cartridge from HP and double check that you have the correct cartridge for your printer. If that doesn't solve the problem, contact HP.
Bad ink Cartridge, I got a new cartridge and within a week had the same problem replaced the cartridge and problem solved. To bad these things are so expensive.
This exact thing just happened to me. I tried EVERYTHING in the way of troubleshooting - turned printer off/on, plugged/unplugged, opened/closed top, pressed all the buttons on the front right - FINALLY, I took out and put back in both ink cartridges and the light finally went to just green, as it should be AND it printed! Hope this helps!
