Discuss the different brands, makes and models of printers used to print inkjet and laser heat transfers. Also includes information on the inks that can be used to make your own transfers.
I just bought an Epson C120 and at first it would print but it would be in all the wrong colors now it doesn't print at all. It tries to print, it even goes through all of the motions it just doesn't put anything on the paper. I've done the head cleaning option and it leaves ink in the cotton at the bottom of the printer so ink is going through just not onto the paper. Does anyone know what's going on? Or should I just buy a new printer?
If it leaves ink on the felt then the heads aren't blocked so I would suspect a signal failure - either on the main board or at the head.
The cost of finding out means that its probably not worth it. Buy a new one :-(
Are you using Epson ink or sublimation Ink? It kind of souds like the colors are in the wrong positions! If that isn't the case, it’s just the printer and Epson needs to get involved.
Well actually I just tried printing again and it leaves lines. I just tried printing out a word document and the letters are only printed every 2 or 3 lines. Like if 1 letter took up 10 lines only 3 or of them would be printed so you get kind of a letter shape made of dashes. I hope that makes sense.
I assume that means compatible, I rarely see Epson's dying with original inks in the head. Compatible inks are often less compatible than they claim.
You could try flushing them out and replacing with OEM but there's a danger that it still won't work and you've shelled out for a set of inks and cleaning carts.
