I just bought a new c86 and MIS ink cartridges, inserted them & 
tried to print. Nothing printed on the page - came out blank.  Any

Try doing a nozzle check- did you by any chance make
sure to remove the yellow sealing tape off the cart vents?

Also - be sure the carts are seated correctly - and try printing a 4 color purge page (found 
at inksupply.com) If you get ink flowing and there is some banding, just wait a few hours 
for the air bubbles to sort themselves out. Avoid the temptation of running umpteen 
nozzle checks and cleaning cycles - that does more harm than good.

Folks say you should start with the epson inks first - to be sure the printer is working w/o 
voiding the warranty. My eBay printer came w/o inks so I started with the MIS carts. It 
prints like a dream now - but I did have some micro banding after initial install of the 
carts.

I hope this helps.
