Hello
On my Epson Stylus D88, the two red lights on the left are flashing simultaneously... This happened after a print job got stuck halfway without ever finishing.
Since then, the printer has remained silent...
I have checked the website and tried the various solutions suggested, but nothing works...
Can someone help me
Thank you in advance ...

    Hello

    This printer on the right concerns the power (green light), the one in the center concerns restarting in case of jam or paper shortage; I think it clears the error message issued by the printer (red light), and the one on the left concerns the ink (red light)... It's these last two that are blinking simultaneously.
    I tried the methods suggested in the forum:
    - Turn off the printer and press both red buttons continuously while pressing the power button in the same manner. I should release all the buttons as soon as the middle one lights up, but nothing happens at all...
    - I downloaded SSC utility, but it tells me it's another problem...
    - I also checked carefully to see if a piece of paper was stuck under the print head, but nothing.
    - I removed the cartridges and unplugged the printer for a night. I was hoping it would clear its memory...

    Result: Every time I power it up... These two buttons blink.

    Hello

    Thanks to those who tried to help me!
    I managed to restart my printer. My desktop computer is running Windows 8.1 and I believe that was what was blocking SSC....
    I did the operation again under Vista and it worked like a charm.

      Excellent then, it is true that the question regarding the operating system has not been addressed, nor has SSC for that matter, perhaps you could clarify!
      You seem to have managed it correctly, so I will mark your topic as Resolved and wish you all the best.
      Best regards.

      EPICURIEN28: Can you tell me how you managed to fix your D88 plus printer issue? I have saved sscserve.exe but it's still on standby!
      Thank you in advance for your help.

    Good evening,
    What do the two indicators in question relate to?
    See you later
