Parts inside your printer are at the end of their service life. Contact your dealer for replacement.

Could be a couple of things m8

here is what i do with my r300

Press and hold 'stop' 'maintenance' and 'power' buttons for about 10 seconds, a message will come on the screen saying counter is reset and to turn off.

switch off then back on...if that works good.

Also your waste pads could be full and require emptying (i have instructions somewhere)

also try this piece of software - this is not supported by epson

look for the epson reset utility my cx did the same last week all working now i just reset the printer and as for the pad being full inside if you open the little panel at the back on therighthand side of the printer you can see the pipe going into the pad just conect a peice of air pump (of a fish tank) to this pipe and run the other end into a container of some kind it will never worry you again check out your local computer fair for the epson reset utility
it so easy even an idiot like me did it in about three mins

It is easy isnt it to empty etc, its amazing how many people will sling or try and sell the printers because of this, i did or do have some instructions with illustrations that i created for another forum i will try and find them and post them here for others etc.

also mate on the back of cx3200 there is a panel that can be unscrewed (if you turn the printer around it is the one on the right) inside you will see a small plastic pipe this going to the collection pad inside the printer when its full your fucked but if you take the end of the tube out being very carefull (it should just pull out)and join it to some air line for a fishtank air stone the just feed it into a small plastic bottle and you waste ink will go into the bottel solving all your problems i done this months ago and never had a problem since epson realy are cheeky telling your printer when to stop this sould be against the law so f+ck them.


let me now how you get on
