I think my printer is dead. I put new ink cartridges in it, cleaned the nozzles, checked status and everything should be working. It's operating like it always has, but no ink goes on the paper. It's an Epson Stylus C80.
Should I throw it in the trash?

try calling the manufacturer of the printer?

i don't mean to sound like an ass but i do silly things like this sometimes...
did you make sure to take the seal off the ink cartridges first?

I swear I don't remember ever doing that before. I think this is only the second time I had to replace the cartridges.
I took off the little plastic coverings but it still doesn't put a speck of ink on the paper.

Did you run the Print Test routine? (not the Nozzle Clean)... I'm guessing it wont work, but thats what you should run first...

did you close it firm and tight? maybe it doesn't make contact? or perhaps there's dirt in the cartridge holder or something?
