I just replaced the cartridges with epson 124s and now nothing is printing.
The printer goes through the motions as if it is printing, but nothing is on the page (not even the light little spots of ink you would get with misaligned heads).
I've tried:
* head alignment (nothing at all on the page).
* Printhead test (again, nothing at all on the page).
* Made a word document with a block of each color of ink and tried printing it (again nothing on the page).
Just to re-state, these are brand new, genuine epson 124 ink cartridges.
Update:
Ok, through several head cleaning cycles with nozzle checks in-between (and some creative windex action involving q-tips as I am currently out of paper towels) I managed to get the printer working again somewhat.
However, it still refuses to print blue (anything blue ends up orange)...so any advice on that angle would be greatly appreciated.
