My Epson stylus NX300 printer is printing very light. I'm not black ink. What can I do?

The glass is normal, telling me 'copy' and 'simple letter '. When I print, it comes out grey. I can't change the cartridge except tells me the glass.

Hi Sharon

This questions the printer head problem. see the following steps for cleaning print head:

Click the Start button, if you have Windows XP. If you have Windows Vista, click the Windows icon located in the lower left corner of your computer screen.

Click on "Control Panel", then "printers and other devices. Finally click on "View Installed Printers or fax printers."

Right-click on the name of your printer and choose "Printing Preferences". This should open a new window; Then look for a tab or button labeled maintenance, or something similar.

Find the button that says "Print heads" or "Clean print heads" and click it. You may be asked to choose the print heads; Choose them all if you are. Make sure that there is no paper and ink in your printer, and it is turned forward.

Remove the page that your printer has printed and see if there are the missing gates or boxes. If it does not exist, you can just exit the program - your print heads are not blocked. If there is missing grids, then click on the "cleanup" or even button labeled.

Once you have finished the cleaning, print another page to make sure that your printheads are is more clogged. If they are still clogged, repeat steps 1 through 5 until your printer is printing clearly.

  • Satellite A200 and Epson Stylus SX100 - printer, Scanner recognized not

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A200 (originally with Vista Home Basic) and re-installed Windows XP Home SP3 32-bit edition. Everything worked very well, all USB ports are ok (tested with PDA, webcams, USB drives...). I installed a multifunction Epson Stylus SX100 printer and the laptop only detected the Scanner, but not the printer.

    This multifunction printer has been tested on a non - laptop Toshiba and everything was ok. (The same drivers from the Epson web site). If I install the CD-Rom Epson, with the ease of installation, then it asks me to connect the printer (the first driver it installs). After a few minutes, the program stops installation because it can not detect the printer. If I install it manually (sending to the printer to another port), and then install the scanner. then the scanner is detected, but not the printer.
    I can't go to the properties of the printer and redirect the printer to the USB port as the port is not in the list.

    I downloaded the drivers for Satellite A200 WXp32 tips from the Toshiba web page.

    Any idea?
    Thank you

    Hello!

    Have you updated Windows with all hotfixes from Microsoft? Check the Windows Update site.

    Also try the latest driver on Epson site. Maybe they could work.

    And what's happened, if you delete the printer driver, and then connect the printer to the laptop?

    Good bye

  • Epson Stylus CX9300F printer getting the error "paper is low or empty.

    I just added my Epson Stylus CX9300F printer to my laptop Windows 7 (64-bit) and the resolution of the problems are saying that there is 'no paper' in the printer... I also use this printer with my Office Windows 10 (64 bit) - and it prints perfectly fine from this source.

    Does anyone have any ideas as to why there is this error display "paper is low or empty" on the laptop?

    Soon :)

    Hello

    I suggest you try it please add the printer manually:

    Click "Start" > click "devices and printers".
    Click on "add a printer".
    Click "add a local printer.
    Click on "Create a new Port" > scroll down to "Standard TCP/IP Port" > click "next".

    Type the IP address of the printer and click "Next".

    The printer must be found and use the USB driver that you have already installed, if the driver is not used you will need to add the driver.

    I hope this helps!

    You gave them remote access they may try to steal your credit card and bank information and also perform an identity theft on you.

  • Reference Dell 2135cn print very light drum cartridge replace?

    I have a Dell 2135cn printer.  It is 1 year.  It has started printing very light copies.  I replaced the toner cartridges, but he continued to print light.  I have ordered that a drum cartridge and who took care of the problem.  That was 3 months ago.  Now the printer prints very light once again, without success, when I replace the toner cartridges.  Do I need an another drum cartridge?  Is it normal to have to replace the drum cartridge so often.  What else could be the cause of this problem?  Thanks for your help.

    I just had the same experience - called Dell technical support.  I use the replacement toner.  Even if my 2135cn is 3 years old, he apparently has a support life support phone.  In any case, the fix was to enter in the Setup, maintenance, admin, non Dell toner - be sure to what it gives 'On '.  My was not, and as soon as I changed it to, black printing went from barely legible to acceptable.
