I'm not certain that I can help, but I am familiar with the Epson does things with their printers and all-in-ones. The thing is, printers are pretty cheap to buy. Where these companies make lotsa bucks is in the aftermarket products, which in this case is printer ink. Therefore, these printers are designed to now allow you to do much of anything with all the ink cartridges installed. I can certainly understand your frustration, and if I am wrong about this, I would like someone who considers themselves an "expert" to tell me so. Good luck, and my advice would be, next time don't buy an Epson. They are the worst company for high-priced ink, and if you use anything except Epson brand ink, you void the warranty. Sucks!

Changing ink reservor on Epson rx620

Are you often to used refilled cartridge? That's possible your waste tank has been fulled. Hold down the 'Stop' AND the 'B&W' button while powering up. This seems to clear the error message and restore the printer. Worked for me--dunno how long it will last tho!

Please rate me SOLVED.

Regards.

Ink out. Press the OK button to replace the cartridge. So I do and I get, Open the scanner unit, replace the appropriate ink cartridges and Close the scanner unit. This after I filled the ink cartridges.

Here are a couple of sites that will help you replace your cartridges.

I have been using non Epson cartridges for years on my RX620 but today when I changed the black cartridge, I got a message that none of my cartridges were recognized as Epson and the printer is now locked...

Newer Epson ink cartridges and other manufacturers place a chip in the cartridge that interacts with the printer, telling it is a genuine cartridge.

If an aftermarket cartridge is used, it may not have the chip and subsequently will not work with the printer.

The best work around is to use genuine Epson cartridges, but when they are empty, take them to a store that can re-fill them or exchange them for a previously refilled genuine cartridge.

Epsom Rx620 states use originals for ink cartridges

Try to hold down both 'stop' and 'B&W' button when you press the 'on' button to start the printer machine. This should erase the error message and let you print.

Changing ink reservor on Epson rx620

You will need a rescue from http://www.TheServiceManualShop.com. This will give all you need to pull the machine apart and clean the ink pads in the base of machine. You will also need the special bit of software they include to enable you to reset the counter in the printers firmware. Once all done you will be right as rain. If the machine is within its warranty period Epson will fix it.
