Chosen Solution
After a while without use my Epson Wf-2750, replaced all the ink cartridges & performed print head cleaning (several times) through printer, printer is not printing nothing at all. The carrier moves left to right as is printing but no ink on paper. Paper are blank without any trace of ink, no printer error, nozzle check page is white too. I decided to clean the nozzles thinking are clogged. Were cleaned with a syringe and cleaning solution until “clear” solution/without any trace of ink came out. The problem persist, white paper came out. Last cleaning was “deeper”, removing the print head and with the syringe cleaned the nozzles until all “perforations” from print head were cleaned and solution pass through. This was performed to be sure that those “perforations” were unclogged. The problem persist, except that a light blue ink printed a status page. But when running a nozzle check no ink at all. The big question, what’s happening and how can be fixed? Thank you
I don’t see any reference to you forcing new ink through the print head to prime it. That finally got my WF printer working again after a long disuse period. Also this to stop this happening in future… https://timbocephus.blogspot.com/2020/04… Above post is ubuntu linux based but you can do similar stuff via mac or windows utilities as well I suppose.
Hi, I had the same thing.. I direct injected ink that I took from an used cartridge directly to the printer head (printer head was mounted ) - I had the problem with the black. After that I selected “clean head” around 4 times. You will need to print some black pages (around 20), “clean head”, print again. That’s works for me. Update (01/26/2021) Also I replaced all cartridges in the middle of the procedure..
I have had this problem several times already and it is very frustrating. It doesn’t matter if your ink is genuine or not.. in fact, it’s worse if its genuine coz I find that the ink runs out quicker. I find that you shouldn’t wait for the ink to run out completely… you should replace it as soon as it gives you the warning. Also, I found this out recently… my black ink run out on me and I replaced it twice… with generic ink and with genuine ink, and it didn’t print out even after manually cleaning the print head (by injection) and print head cleaning via the maintenance mode - it did this several times, even printed out black pages which turned out blank… I finally gave up and hit ink replace, then pulled the plug so I can freely move the ink cartridge caddy… took out all the ink cartridges, didn’t really do anything and put back all the ink cartridges one by one… it miraculously worked after that… beats me why that worked but my guess is air bubbles?
Hi @sandman8888 Thank you for your advice and time. The problem persisted, so just bought a new printer.
