    Nozzle issue with Epson Workforce 3640

    I own an Epson Workforce 845 with CISS carts. Both are about 5 years old. I have had my shares of not-firing, mis-firing nozzles and fuzzy letters. @jpegman, you have done all things correctly like, head cleaning and cleaning of head with Windex. Though I did not have as bad a case of letter...

    I like this photo. How one gets such strong/vivid colors, I wonder.

    Epson PX 830 FWD issue

    I'm not sure about the CISS cartridges you have, on mine there is a battery. When my CISS cartridges were not being recognized, I realized my battery was almost two years old, so I replaced the battery with a new one and printer recognized the carts.

    CIS/CFS system maintenance

    I attached a CIS/CFS system around February, 2013 to my Epson WF845. After the ink level dropped to slightly less than a third, I refilled all the inks in the tanks to full. That was in January, 2015. Needless to say I'm not a big time printer, just my office documents, my kids school...

    SERVICE MANUALS LINKS - post here -Compliments of PeterBJ

    Continuation of post +188... I found out from Websnail that Epson workforce 845 in USA is practically the same as Epson Stylus Office BX935FWD sold in Europe. Anybody know where to get a service manual for free? 2manuals.com sells it for $19.99. That may be my last hope.

    Lets talk about air

    Websnail, you actually hit the proverbial nail on the head! After what I thought was a successful unclogging of all nozzles in my desktop printer WF845, I noticed that two nozzles, though firing, were deflecting the dye ink. See the first photo taken on 8/31/15 at 7:53 PM. I've marked the two...

    Lets talk about air

    SUCCESS!!! Finally last night I was able to get some time to really clean my WF845. 1. I thoroughly cleaned the parking pad and the rubber wiper with straight, Original Windex with Ammonia-D. It took me close to two dozen flushings to clean the sponges in parking pad to my satisfaction. 2...

    Lets talk about air

    Cross my fingers... If it doesn't improve overnight, I may try nozzle cleaning over the weekend. I'm not good with electrical stuff. Which brings me back to questions I raised in my first posting - any preferred way of cleaning?

    Lets talk about air

    Thank you, turbguy, for your reply. I followed your instructions and let the printer rest overnight. About an hour ago I ran a nozzle check and found nothing has changed - still magenta shows the SAME missing bars. I ran a head cleaning and ran another nozzle check after about 10 minutes...

    Lets talk about air

    I did not print while I was on vacation for two weeks and my Epson Workforce 845 connected to a CISS was idle the whole time. After returning from vacation, the print nozzle check showed missing bars on all 3 colors and one black. After several head cleanings, I still have a few bars missing...

    Help before I get my hammer out!

    Joe For a double decker printer like Epson Workforce 845 the CISS unit needs to be raised a good 3 inches above the table level at which printer is kept. I take added precaution to raise the ink tanks periodically, as the ink levels in the tanks start to go down due to printer usage. I focus on...

    Help before I get my hammer out!

    I have installed CISS from InkXpro on Epson Workforce 845. It has been about 3 months since CISS installation. Everything is working fine - nozzle print OK, no banding in any of the four BYMC colors. However, I've noticed two or three small air bubbles (about 5 to 10mm long) ONLY in yellow tube...
