I am partly dissasembling the printhead to get at the cable connection. I am having a problem on the last few steps before I can actually get to the cable connection.

At InkjetMall, Dana finally responded and said the nozzle check looked like an electrical problem and I should take out the printhead and see if the print cable has gotten wet. I will get to this in a few days (as stated before, I do have a real life outside of dealing with this printer) and...

It may be possible that one of the carts is leaking. I have extra carts. I am going to replace the three black/grey carts and see what happens.

Websnail, I tried to make a print of the file you suggested but the printer started to make a print, and then it went back to blinking red lights. I pressed the off button, then turned it on and pulled the plug to be able to move the printhead. In the process, it ejected the paper which an...

FWIW, I uploaded a scan of the nozzle check printout.

Next chapter. I pulled the electrical cord out of the outlet. Put it back in, turned it on and no blinking lights. I ran a nozzle check and I get a black smear that shows a lot of ink on the paper. Any thoughts?

Cancel the celebration. I am back to two blinking lights.

Update. Thanks Websnail, I soaked two nozzles for about 12 hours each and then did a nozzle check. They now print fine. Two others were almost OK so I will be soaking them tonight and tomorrow. With any luck, I might be back to normal by Sunday. I will report back then. Also, I have ordered a...

I will try the passive approach. Hopefully, it is a win-win. Since the printer has worked recently, about how long should I let it soak? Also, I will check to make sure that there is actually some ink in the cart.

As I do have a life outside fixing this printer, I have not been able to devote much time to this. I was getting good responses from Dana on the forum at Inkjetmall but she has not responded this week. As I clarify my issues I will report back. As I can't seem to get a good nozzle print, I am...

I believe I have solved my problem. It was a waste ink reset issue. I downloaded the software that gives a count, which turned out to be 91% and 26%. I did not know if I needed it to be closer to 100% but I tried it anyway. It solved my problem of the blinking lights. Now I only have to clarify...

Thank you for your help but I have a manual but it is not helpful. Also, your link does not open.

While trying to clean out my printer, I had a streaking problem. While trying to fix that, I replaced all the inks, rest all the chips, and now I get the left two lights blinking together. The printer is now unusable until I solve this problem. From research, it is hard to tell what the problem...
