Hello, thank you for using Howly.
Have you tried to restart your Epson xp-4100?
yes
Ok, do you have paper loaded into your printer? A few sheets.
yes
Ok, good.
On your printer's control panel, do you see "Maintenance" button?
yes
Ok, press it and then press "Print Head Nozzle Check".
Then press "Print" and tell me if it will print any patterns.
it printed and at the left top of the page is a very light, almost not there black and white image about 1 inch x 1 inch figure and right next to it is a lightly colored horizontal striped colored striped square the same size.
If there are gaps or the pattern is faint, select X on your printer's control panel and continue.
selected,. it says to hit start to clean the print head, is this what i should do?
Correct.
i'll let you know when it finishes.
Of course!
finished. i hit the "check" button to see if the print head requires cleaning. The result looks good.
Great. Now try to print something else, like a document from acomputer.
fixed. Thank you for your help!
I am so pleased to see your issue got resolved!
