Damned printer! I have been out of ink for like two months now. I didn't know which ink was low so I had to track down some additional drivers for the printer, go to my friend Rand's house to download them (before I got the cable modem again), reinstall the printer to get the utility to work which told me I was out of COLOR ink. Ok fine. It wouldn't let me print, so I looked up what ink I needed. What I needed was the Epson S020110 Color Cartridge. I looked everywhere for it. And no one had it in stock. The only thing everyone had was the Espon S020093 - Black cartridge. I didn't buy it though because the utility told me I needed color.
Two months go by and my friend Rand finally orders it for me off the Epson site for like $18. (He needed their paper and buys it in higher quantity and gets it cheaper.) He gave it to me a couple days after Thanksgiving. I kept forgetting to replace it until tonight. Follow all the steps, get it all set back up, close the cover, press the button and weeee I think, I'll be able to print again!.
THE LIGHT IS STILL FLASHING.
Oh what now? So I refresh the utility and it tells me..... my black ink is low! ARG! Why didn't you tell me BOTH were low? Why did I have to replace ONE before you decided to mention the OTHER needed replacing too? GRRRRRRR. So, now, I'm back to square one: my printer won't print.
Of course, had the damned thing told me they were both too low to print, I could have had my friend order BOTH off the site and everything would have been fine. But nooooo...it didn't do that. ARG. So now, I need to wait - AGAIN - until I can get together like $25 to go buy another cartridge.
Epson you suck!! Grr.
