Re: Help needed for my epson r2400

Post by personalised_sublimation »

I was wondering if anyone could help me.
I have a epson r2400 a3 printer and for some reason i can not for the life of me get it to print anything on to a peace of paper, i have checked the nozzles are clear but still nothing prints on the paper. If there is a epson tech or someone that could help sort it for me i would be very very grateful.

Thx carl.

i did a few head cleans on it first but there was not luck with that then i took all the cartriges out and linked a syringe on to each nozzle with cleaning fluid in it and pump it throw, the nozzles seem to be clear of any blockages. I didn't say they are perfect, i was just saying they seem find.

i dont think there is any solution. my airlock normally gone within 24h. i always squirt some cleaning fluid in the head and leave it there overnight.
