Try several cleaning cycles. See your printer maintenance options.

I'm not an expert, only a long-time printer user. I have found that if my printer is acting up and I can't fix it pretty quickly, I can go out and buy a new one with a lot less stress.

Thanks to the suggestion of the cleaning cycles. I also neede to replace 2 colors. They Appeared to have enough ink, but things changed when they were replaced. Never had the blue overall tint though, while many times did need the cleaning cycles after sitting a while.

Glenn, are you using Epson brand ink & cartridges or something else?

I use only epson branded inks. the main use for my printer is to proof my work before i send the file off for acrylic prints.
