This is yet
another common printer problem. Your printer is printing but when
the paper appears it is completely blank and nothing is written on
it!!
There are 2 reasons why this might be
happening:
- Your print cartridges (ink) have dried up or are
faulty.
- Your print head has dried
up.
To check to see
if your cartridge (ink) has dried up, take out the cartridge, get some tissue
and dab the cartridge with your tissue.
If you are only
seeing small dots of ink on you tissue this is called bleeding the cartridge
(this will allow for the ink in your cartridge to flow properly again). If after
a few minutes, there is no ink on the tissue, it is a safe bet to say you need a
new cartridge.
Now on the other
hand, if you are seeing ink on the tissue but your printer is still not
printing, then your print head is blocked and depending on how bad it is
blocked, you might need a new printer.
If you use an
Epson printer and you haven’t cleaned your print heads now is a good time
to do so.
