Or do i simply buy new cartridges?
Thanks a lot! ^^

Redwing,
When you say you followed the manual, does that mean you went into the cleaning routine either from the Printer control panel or the one in the computer/printer section and ran the print head cleaning routine followed by the nozzle print check. ???
You also mentioned the 'Cartridge Nozzles'......but the nozzles are not on the cartridge. They are a permanent part of the print head/carriage assembly. You cannot physically reach them without disassembling the printer, which of course would void your warranty.
The cart is nothing but an ink tank. It either has ink in it, or it doesn't.
Have you been using Genuine Epson Ink?
If you're using Epson Ink and the printer still refuses to print even after multiple cleaning cycles, then Epson will probably send you a new printer. But you have to call them and ask them.
They sent me two new printers last year because of the CD print slides jamming in the printer. Other than that, both printers worked 100%.
Give them a call. That's my best advise, as a factory trained Epson tech. (now retired)
Good luck,
The Shadow
