Hello, first of all I would like to point out that I am French so sorry in advance for my approximate English!

I turn to you because I have a problem with my Epson L1800 printer !

I disassembled the print head for cleaning, since the printer no longer prints any colors... However the print head is not clogged because I have done several ink loading cycles, i see the ink in the printer and the level of my tank all went down well but when I launch a test page nothing is printed... I reassembled the head several times to see if I hadn't forgotten or damaged anything but unfortunately everything seems ok . Do you have an idea of the origin of my problem?

Best regards

Remote diagnostics is difficult in this case - it could be an electrical problem e.g. a contact problem with the flat cable - or are there any bubbles in the tubes ? Is there any ink in the dampers ?

thank you for your answer, there is no air in the shock absorbers, I sucked with a syringe, moreover, the ink comes out of the print head when I make a clean head. I don't understand

It could be a contact problem or a problem with the motherboard but I don't know a simple way to test for that.
