Yellow colour not printing

[Arnod Bhattacharjee]

I have an Epson L210 printer which uses ink bottles rather than cartridges. For the first 2-3 months of purchase it worked fine but now the yellow ink is not printing at all. I checked the ink levels but it's more than half. Please help. Thanks in advance.

run head cleaning utility

Sometimes the ink level utility is wrong. Buy some yellow. You will need to someday anyways.

its a tank system printer--you can just look to see how much ink is in there

I see, thanks for the heads up. run head cleaning utility or pull the bottle and clean with alcohol and q-tip

funnily enough wizz and some other glass cleaning products also dissolve printer ink if you have no alcohol handy

if those solutions dont work its probably clogged where the pipes for the ink go into nozzles-- turn off the ink flow--should be a lever to do it

pinch the tubes as will be ink in them--have cloth or kitchen towel handy--remove tubes and clean nozzles as before
