Epson Stylus 3-in-1 printer is not responding

Asked By Daniel Anderson 0 points N/A Posted on - 10/20/2011

Hi to all,

I tried printing today using my Epson Stylus 3-in-1 printer but it won't work. I just used it the other day and it worked perfectly. The inks are new and set up properly. It has a sound like it's printing but it won't take the paper and print.

The ink icon is blinking but I am 100% sure that inks are new. It just worked the other day so I really don't know what happened. Please help. Does anybody know what should I do? Your help is very much appreciated.

Dan

Try removing all of the ink cartridges inside the printer. Turn off the printer and then remove all of the installed inks inside. Turn it on again. The system should detect that there are no inks installed on the printer. This is good since the printer can still detect any installed ink cartridges.

Read the printer’s manual and try doing a test print with the printer. It is usually a combination of some of the buttons of the printer. You can do a test print even if the printer is not connected to the computer because the image that will be printed is stored within the printer itself.

If you have successfully finished a test print then there’s no problem with the printer. But if not, you may need to bring it to a certified technician for repairs and diagnosis.

If you have a successful test print the problem maybe is with the printer cable connecting to the computer. Try connecting it to other printer if it works or just replace it.

Hello there! 

 

Check all the cables from your printer to the computer. The printer might be having a hard time getting the data from your computer. Also, try to uninstall the printer from your computer. After uninstalling it, remove all the folders that is related to your printer.

 

Clear your recycle bin then restart your computer. After that, install your Epson Stylus 3-in-1 printer again very carefuly. If any of these do not work, you might want to call your printer manufacturer for instructions on how to fix it or bring it to the nearest printer technician in your area.
