There is still ink in there. With the prices of ink for this printer at a high price, I would suggest finding a better solution to your printing needs.
In attempting to correct gaps in printing, it is suggested one use the nozzle head cleaning. Knowing what I know now, that is, that Epson Ink does not last very long, I would NOT have purchased this printer.
Forget it. I have done this several times, and to no avail.
Meanwhile, it is using a ton of ink to clean, and pretty soon I will need to buy even more ink. Epson (online troubleshooting) suggests I purchase new ink cartridges since it has taken more than four tries and the problem still occurs.
What a waste.
I don't usually write reviews, but after seeing the terrible reviews for this printer I just had to share my opinion. I've never had a problem with it, and it has consistently printed fantastic documents and even better photos. I've had this printer since my sophomore year in college, 2004. It is still working great as ever. No one knows my framed pictures are from my printer and not from a photo lab. Maybe I'm just lucky, but I really only have good things to say about this printer and about Epson.
We own both the C84 and C86 (they share the same cartridges). They've both died and I don't think I'll let my supply of cartridges influence my next purchase. As others have pointed out, these are fine until they break, which is early. Epson needs a new Chinese supplier for these $400 plastic printers.
Owned 2 of these. Garbage. And if you pay the $275 the last buyer I saw had this listed for you must be on Crack. My $.02.
I paid probably $50 for my Epson C84 printer and used it MAYBE 3 months with light print jobs. I've read the reviews here and it appears just about everyone has experienced the same problems. Lose customers, lose your business, period. Replaced the ink. Congratulations Epson, you've made yourself into an incompetant manufaturer. Thank goodness I didn't pay full price because now the heads are clogged (after repeated head cleanings and running through the ink even faster), and I'm still getting blank pages. I ran out of ink. I don't know if anyone from Epson reads these reviews, but they need a reality check.
I'll be doing my homework and checking reviews thoroughy before I buy my next printer. But I'll NEVER buy anything from Epson again. This printer is a pure piece of trash. Never again.
