Thank you to everyone for the advice and help. At this point I'm just going to see if I can get a quote from a local repair shop. If I can't get it fixed for a reasonable price I'll just get a new printer. I love the 1400 but I'm done fiddling with it. If I have to get a new 13 x 19 photo...
Thanks bplaman,
I changed the language to English and ran PrintHelp.
PrintHelp recognizes the Epson 1400.
When I go to disable Epson processes PrintHelp doesn't detect any.
It says that “According to your printers status printer is still fully operable”.
Waste counters read 29.72% and 17.6%...
I followed the instructions in the video: It did not help.
Prinhelp.exe seems to be able to find the Epson 1400 but since I don't speak Ukrainian I have no idea if it is giving me any additional information on the printer.
Thanks;
Only the power button blinks. .5 sec on, .5 sec off repeat endlessly while the printer head moves back and forth. I've let it go on for hours before turning it off so this is not just normal charging of inkheads. Occasionally it will stop for about 1 second then resume.
I've got an Epson stylus photo1400. I don't use it often. When I tried to start it up recently it won't stop initializing. By initializing I mean the print head moves back and forth and it sounds like it's charging the heads. Even after several hours it's still going. I've tried starting it up...
