Epson printer won't print
A little while back our Epson 740i printer ran out of ink. My brother took the cartridge out without telling me that he did so. After I had refilled the ink, I put it back in. The ink has since turned into the consistency of honey, according to the ink-by-the-pint company(http://www.oddparts.com/ink/so20089.htm for instructions). Now, no matter what we do, the printer will not print. Any ideas?

[Q]I believe in Epson printers, the print heads are contained in the printer and not the cartridges. <hr></blockquote>
Sounds right.
Is it possible you've got some dried ink clogging up the print heads? Have you tried cleaning them using the printers head cleaning cycle?<hr></blockquote>
Several bajillion times
That's why you shouldn't remove old cartridges, even if empty, until you've got new ones to replace them.
I wouldn't, but my brother was unaware of this.
