Missing black lines

[y.and.v.designs]

Hello!
I bought brand new printer Epson L1250 EcoTank, I run nozzle test and Cyan, Magenta, Yellow were printed perfect, but Black is missing lines. I ran at least 10 head cleanings - still the same. Ran Power Clean - also the same. Also make manual cleaniing with a solution - also nothing better. And everytime I print nozzle check, everytime the same lines are missing.

Hey there, did you ever figure it out? Having your problem word for word

Sounds like a clogged black nozzle that’s being stubborn. If power cleaning and manual cleaning didn’t help, you might need to let the cleaning solution sit on the cap station or in the head for a few hours (or overnight) to loosen the clog. Just don’t overdo the cleanings or you’ll waste ink fast. If it still doesn’t improve, could be a defective printhead – might be worth contacting Epson support while it’s still under warranty
