Hi all - a major lightning strike took out many electrical items such as PC, TV decoders and other electronic gadgets last week. Not all though. My WF 2910 strangely printed for a couple of times last week but now is refusing to do anything much. Only bought in April so under warranty but maybe not totally fried. How can I be sure? Is it possible to do a complete reset and reinstall from scratch to see if it is salvageable? Can't find anything much on Epson's help or contact pages. TIA

Try a full reset (Home > Settings > Restore Default Settings > Clear All Settings) and reinstall drivers. If still not working, contact Epson warranty might cover surge damage.

Thanks David Parker, I will try that but it seems some work arounds are still possible as I've managed to reset printing and copying of the multifunction formats. Just scanning is playing up as it doesn't find the computer via the USB cable. I suspect that was possibly damaged in the strike? If I do clear all settings, I presume I must begin the whole setup process as well as resinstalling the drivers using the Epson wizard? Topicel
