Have you cleaned and aligned the print heads?

[classicsoftware]

Have you cleaned the print head inside the printer?

[no2like]

Then it's time for a new printer as the Z_52 is worth about $40.00

[no2like]

yes i can always to that.still would like to know why

It's a disposible printer...a full cartridge set costs more than the printer is worth.

Lately I have been partial to the Epson printers. They seem to less disposable than other printers.

I'm partial to both Epsons and the mid to upper HP models...mainly because both not only work well in Windows but in Linux too. Canon and Lexmak are hit or miss for Linux and most often nothing more than basic functions.
