If power button is on (not blinks) and two red lights are blinking alternatively it means the inkpads are end of life. Ask epson service centre to reset it and replace the ink pad. You can go for wic reset with fees.
If power button is blinking with two red lights, it means your printer cannot initialize. Its a fatal error. Ask epson service engineer to service it.
I've written a guide on the whole problem which details what causes the problem as well as the possible options available to you here: http://www.octoinkjet.co.uk/waste/
...but in a nutshell your printer needs to have the waste ink counter reset using a reset utility (I believe the SSC utility is compatible with this model) and redirect the waste ink into an external waste ink tank...
It's not a complete nightmare and well worth doing but if you decide to get rid of it for a new model, I'd definitely recommend listing it on eBay as you'll sell it no problems at all...
The waste ink pad needs to be replaced or cleaned AND the service software used to reset the internal counter. You cn download tthis online.
You have to dis-assemble the printer to get at the pad. You can clean the pad with agressive rinsing till it is a very light gray color. (A lot of ink will be flushed out!)
This is an indicator that the waste ink pads are getting full
The answer is to reset the counters
This will get it going again but, you can onlky do this a few times before it starts leaking.
So 1. resetting the counter- download this utility- www.ssclg.com- install it and right click on the taskbar icon.
renewing the pads - messy business- you may want to install instead an improvised waste collection tank out side the machine
Take a look at www.fixyourownprinter.com
and search for Epson waste ink tank
