Good morning, I recently had a number of issues with errors and my 4000 would not operate. I kept getting "service required" errors so I purchased a cd to reset the the settings. (The printer printed perfectly if it would start) I was able to get rid of the errors and it starts up fine now. However, it pumped most of my ink into the maintenance tank which I had to change and reset, now I am only getting a nozzle check to show up on 1 cartridge (photo black). I have refillables for my colors and they were all reset however they are at 1/4 full to 1/8 full in physical ink. It went through the charging setup, (raising lowering levers etc.) and I still cannot get ink to the printhead. I changed out Matte black with OEM epson 110 full cartridge and still that one will not give me a nozzle check. I tried an init fill and it would not go... just lit the red "ink" light on the control panel. I am not sure if I should invest in a whole set of cartridges or if there is something I should be doing? (Prior to doing the reset, I was able to get a full clean print nozzle pattern by unplugging the printer and doing a startup in the morning--- This worked sometimes and sometimes not. It appears to have reset ?? and now turns on every time says "ready" but got no ink. Also tried printing a picture in case it took a while to get ink there, and all I got was a blank paper. On the nozzle check, it does print info below the lonely black as to maint. tank etc. (I assume it is printing with the one nozzle..... I know this is long and drawn out, but I wanted to include all info I had so if someone tried to help me, they knew most of the issues.
Thank you and have a nice day.....Wayne
