ET ecotank Junk

[Dick7Access]

Back with the same printer problem less than a year with the piece of junk Epson Ecotank.

This is the third echotank to stop printing color. The ink level is only ¼ down. The last two I spent hours trying to clear the jets. I am not going to even try on this one.

My eys right now is on a HP 7602. My question to the clan. Anybody have a lot of trouble with the HP76022?

I’ve been using Brother printer/scanners for years without a problem. Don’t know about their tank equivalent as my print quantities are quite low, perhaps 100 pages/month. But you might want to investigate as an alternative manufacturer

Printers have very small nozzles that spray ink onto the paper, typically measuring about 10 to 75 micrometers (μm) in diameter.
If you don’t use them frequently, these nozzles can become clogged with dried ink left behind. This is almost inevitable over time.
It seems you may not be using your printer very often, which is likely the main cause of the issue.
Even if you don’t print regularly, it’s a good idea to run a head cleaning from time to time to prevent clogging.

You might also consider using a color laser printer instead of an inkjet printer.
