Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean when the ink light on my Epson Stylus CX3800 suddenly flashes or stays on while printing?
A flashing ink light means an ink cartridge is running low on ink, while an ink light that stays on indicates an empty or incorrectly installed cartridge.
Is the newly installed remanufactured ink cartridge to blame for the light or dark bands across the printouts?
No. It could be that the printhead nozzles are clogged. To fix the light or dark bands across the printouts, try unclogging the nozzles by cleaning the printhead.
What to do if I’m getting jagged vertical lines?
To get rid of the jagged vertical lines, all you need to do is align the printhead.
