    Epson Artisan 837 does not recognize ink cartridges

    I wish that I could. Once the printer states that it can not recognize any of the cartridges, I can't get past that step. I tried to press cancel, wit no luck. There is no other option that I know of.

    Epson Artisan 837 does not recognize ink cartridges

    Unfortunately no, and now I have (2) 837s that do the same thing. I'm about to trash both, as I purchased a new Epson XP-820, and I'm very happy with it.

    Artisan 837 Blank Pages

    I have downloaded the service manual, thanks to one of our forum members. Thanks to you also for including the link. It's very explicit and detailed for all of the printers listed that it covers. However, disassembly is very difficult requiring special tools. I found it helpful to...

    Artisan 837 Blank Pages

    This reply is in regards to my first Artisan 837, as I have 2 that don't work. The nozzle check function showed that 2 of the 6 weren't up to snuff like the others. I found an aftermarket cleaning kit and directions for use on YouTube. Removing the head and cleaning it was no big deal. Once...

    Artisan 837 Blank Pages

    OK, so I removed power from this 837 that was putting out blank pages. I then again powered it up, and now it is totally dead. Removed the AC line cord, let the printer set for a bit, put AC line cord in place, and still dead. Any clues?

    Epson Artisan 837 does not recognize ink cartridges

    Thanks for the input. I have tried to wipe contacts several times on all cartridges, with no luck. I've even used contact cleaner on the cartridge chip itself, and the contacts in the printer. If you read the scenario again, the printer does, and does not recognize the cartridges. It's a...

    Epson Artisan 837 Printer error has occurred

    OK, I'm back. This problem is on a used Epson that I purchased from e-Bay, and initially it worked. A windows test page printed out with no problem. I went to print out a picture, and it came out horrible. I performed a nozzle check and found that the cyan nozzle was missing from the test...
