I can switch the printer on as usual. There are three buttons on the top which light up. Normally the one on the left shows green. When printing that light flashes on and off then returns to steady green.On 30/11/12 09:36, Neil Winchurst wrote:Oh well, the situation has changed now. Turned the printer on this morning and was greeted with some flashing lights. It is completely unresponsive so I guess that is that. So now I really have to get a new one, and quickly. And all my research has left me more baffled than ever. Sigh, NeilCan you connect to the printer and ask it what is wrong - some do have diagnostics Tom te tom te tom
If there is a problem other lights come on red. Now the first light is flashing green and the middle light is flashing red. It will not respond to anything,
All these lights are also buttons. The third light/button from the left is the one to press to get the cartridge holder to move across so that I can change the inks. This button is now jammed and will not move.
I have had the printer a long time and I really don't think it is worth the bother any more.
I plan to look for a cheap one for now to keep me going while I decide what to do finally. There seem to be several available at about £40 to £60, so it is a matter of deciding which one to risk.
