printer not working.need help!
2 Answers
Can anyone help me out?
I printed a document the other day and the paper got jammed and now I am getting an error message on the printer saying I should contact my local dealer.
Then it says communication error.
The printer still thinks that there is still a piece of paper still in there but there isn't as I have taken it out.
Epson have said it could be a sensor .
I have tried taking it apart and I couldn't find out what was wrong with it.
Can anyone tell me what I should look for to repair it myself.
It is an epson stylus 580.
It hasn't been a very good printer so I am reluctant to spend any money having it repaired and would rather do it myself.
If it can't be reapaired can anyone please reccomend a good 3 in 1 printer that prints very good digital images from my digital camera.
I also want a good scanner in the 3 in 1 to scan my wedding photo's and negatives.
So if my current printer can't be repaired or is not worth getting reapaired then what is the best 3 in 1 to buy .
I don't want to spend more than 130 pounds.
I also want to be able fill the ink cartridges myself.
Thank you very much in advance for any infrormation.I am really grateful.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Aldi are doing/will soon be doing a Lexmark scanner/copier/printer for around �80, I have the same model from a previous offer, and have found it reliable. However I'm not 100% convinced that it will be of sufficiently high quality for VERY GOOD images - on the other hand, I don't think that m/any printers in the price range you mention will be! Never tried refilling the carts myself, but have had it done at Cartridge World, so I assume you can do it yourself. Also (I could be wrong here) I think that you will need a seperate device to scan negatives. I think some high-end printers may have this facility built in, but these will be way over your price range again.
