Jusoda Kid 1 Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Haven't used my Epson R200 for ages and when I've went to print the test page it's only showing 3 of the 6 possible colours. Trie the self clean head thing but still nowt. I've ordered a flush cartridge to try and clean them out, anyone else had problems like this and fixed it or is a new printer on the cards?

Jimbo 175 Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 You'll probably need to replace the inks, try here: Choicestationary.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jusoda Kid 1 Posted December 9, 2005 Author Share Posted December 9, 2005 Got a couple of flush cartridges and it seems to have done the trick, £6 each though, bastards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob W 0 Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 come on man! Soemone had to design it, build it, pay the bloody workers, fill it, do all the paperwork, send it from China to Tyneside, pay the duty, transport it to the shop or the wharehouse, set up an internet site or pay the assistant AND make a profit and you object to paying the cost of a few beers rather than spend £ 70 on a new printer..............

Jusoda Kid 1 Posted December 12, 2005 Author Share Posted December 12, 2005 Got the flush cartridges and put them in, now I'm getting 2 flashing red lights stating error, something about printhead obstructed but theres nothing obstructing it. I would rather be charged more for the printer itself and it be quality than pay through the arse for cartridges etc. Off to nominate Epson in Cunts corner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
