My printer seems to have enough ink and it goes thorough the motions of printing but the paper is blank?

This was a new Epson Stylus Photo RX425 bougtht 6 months ago and hardly been used! Please help!My printer seems to have enough ink and it goes thorough the motions of printing but the paper is blank?
Most likely the printers internal equipment is dirty, or clogged.





1) Right-click on your Epson Stylus icon, and go to ';Properties';





2) Find the tab for the ';Printing Defaults'; link





3) Click on the ';Utility'; tab





4) Perform the following procedures:





* Nozzle Check';


* Head Cleaning


* Print Head Alignment





--------------------------------------鈥?br>




If for some reason these steps do not work, it could be that the ink has dried out and the ink cartridge needs to be replaced.





Hope this helps.My printer seems to have enough ink and it goes thorough the motions of printing but the paper is blank?
Thanks Sandy, i had same problem, and i also followed it through and i was success, i was looking to buy new printer and u saved my money Report Abuse

Cool! I'm glad to hear that.





I love helping people, especially when it involves saving them money.





Thank you for your comments.





Have a great day :-) Report Abuse

is yours a color buble jet, cos, if you don't use it frequently, the ink would dry up.
well it is simple maybe u forgot to put the ink properly or just the printer is damage
try cleaning the heads. If you don't use it often they can clog. Look in the manual it will tell you how.
it's probably still under warantee. it so, send it back.
Ink is probably dried up on the cartridge. Take the cartridge out and on the underneath side there will be a copper colored square. Put rubbing alcohol on a cotton cloth or q-tip and rub it gently for a while. If that doesn't work, buy a new cartridge
Hopefully it's not the printer head fault. If it is, you may be better off replacing it with a new printer because they cost quite a bit, unless you still have a manufacturer or store's warranty.





Why not try calling Epsion's Customer Service or Tehnical Support team, they have the right technicians to guide you. Plus, they will know best about what's wrong with your RX425 model.
You need to clean your ink jet heads, go to mainenance and choose head cleaning.
Check you have removed the piece of tape covering the printing head.
Try using the head cleaning program that should have come with the printer.
Just go to the properties and go to maintenance and go to nozzle check and head clean simply as that
rub the bottom of cartridge w/ some alchohol or water. Your ink is dry at the thingy.
u got the guarentee nothing to worry
the jets are blocked up, this happens alot when the printer is rarely used (its normal)


go into printing preferances, then maintenance, then head cleaning...





or....if you have a lcd screen on the front of your printer, go through the menu and do the same..
your printer head is clogged from ink. clean it with rubbing alcohol
Check your printer it may have a problem
