I own an Epson DX4400 printer, and it's been working fine in the 6 months or so that I've had it. My black ink cartridge recently ran out so I replaced it with a new one (of the Epson brand as advised), yet I've had problems with printing in general; white lines will cut across black text and whole lines of writing will be cut off completely, so it's not even possible to read it. Any way of fixing this, preferably a way that doesn't involve replacing the cartridge again? (I need to print something soon so I don't really want to go to the trouble). Thanks in advance!
It really sounds like your print cartridge is not utilizing all of the printhead jets (one or more are blocked or clogged) which is causing your white lines thru the print. Check the cartridge for any remaining pieces of the sealing tape that may be left on, try reseating the cartridge and check any contacts for ink or other debris and clean as needed, then try running your printhead cleaning utilities to see if that clears it up, if not then I'd take the defective cartridge back and request a replacement at no charge. Good luck.
