Re: [Digital BW] r1900 problems

well I don't recall now, but it was not close to reset time, like maybe 40%... but I reset it anyway thinking that might clear out it's brain fart somehow... so it's back to near zero. I've gone over everything I can find, including new carts etc.. resets, unplug, plug back in, on and on. All the paper and head paths are clear, etc. 
Somehow I managed to toast it right when new inks to play with came arrived at the door. I guess I could call Epson, but they're going to tell me to find a nice African Violet to plant in it I'm sure.
