People take their Epson R300 into a repair shop because "it needs a service" and the disgusting this is that when you have left the shop they have a little trick that they don't tell you about but when you collect your printer thinking they have replaced certain parts or had your machine in bits to repair it, and it has cost you more than fifty pounds, all they have done is pressed 3 buttons and your printer is fixed, taking about 20 seconds to do it.
This is what you do.............switch the printer off, use 3 fingers to press 3 buttons at the same time (the stop button, the print button & the little grey button below them with a light above it). While your fingers are pressing these buttons down, turn the machine on, you will hear an awful grating noise and may probably think that you have broken it but allow this to continue until the grating stops, usually about 5-10 seconds. That's it done! You can now get back to printing.
