Hello,
I have an EPSON XP 245 printer that hasn't worked for several months. I've put in new cartridges. It doesn't print black but it does print gray....
Does anyone know the solution please?
Thank you
Best regards

everything the Epson book says: alignment, cleaning, cartridge removal, unplugging for 10 minutes; 1 hour.....

I see............... or rather I don't see very well...
You never know...

If you have only done one cleaning, it will not have been sufficient after several months in the cupboard...
Either you do more cleanings via the computer, or, more economical and eco-friendly, a manual cleaning of the nozzles.

I did several, both automatically and manually, by removing the cartridges and using a cotton swab...
-
Are these Epson cartridges?
Are the drivers up to date?
-
For the cartridges: yes
As for the drivers, they installed automatically yesterday by connecting the printer to a PC with Windows 10
-
Yes...
There aren't many possibilities left.
It could be:
If the problem persists, turn off the device and leave it for at least eight hours. This should help eliminate any clogging of the print heads.
