## **2. Initial Checks — Start With the Basics**
### **2.1 Check Printer Power and Status**
* Ensure the printer is **turned on** and connected to power.

## **3. Connectivity Checks**
### **3.1 Wireless Connection (Wi-Fi)**
* Ensure the printer is connected to the **same Wi-Fi network** as your computer or device.
* If you recently changed your Wi-Fi password, reconnect the printer.
* Move the printer closer to the router for better signal strength. ([HackMD][1])
### **3.2 USB Connection**
* If using USB, ensure the cable is **fully inserted** and not damaged.
* Try a different USB port on your computer.
* Avoid using USB hubs — connect directly. ([HackMD][1])
**For instant expert support, call Epson Support at 1-866-203-7571.**
## **4. Restart Devices (Power Cycle)**
A simple restart often fixes communication or software glitches:
1. Turn off the printer and unplug it from power.
2. Restart your computer or mobile device.
3. Wait one minute, then plug in and power up the printer.
4. Try printing a simple test page. ([HackMD][3])

## **5. Check Default Printer & Print Queue**
### **5.1 Set Epson ET-2400 as Default**
* **Windows:**
– Go to **Control Panel → Devices and Printers**.
– Right-click **Epson ET-2400** → **Set as Default Printer**.
* **Mac:**

**For instant expert support, call Epson Support at 1-866-203-7571.**
## **6. Check Ink Levels and Tanks**
The EcoTank system uses refillable ink tanks rather than cartridges — if any tank is **empty, contaminated, or not seated properly**, printing can fail:
* Open the ink tank cover and **check ink levels**.
* Refill with **genuine Epson ink bottles ONLY**.
* If any tank looks suspicious (bubbles, contamination), check for trapped air. ([HackMD][1])
**Note:** Running the printer with extremely low ink can cause damage to the print head. ([HackMD][1])
**For instant expert support, call Epson Support at 1-866-203-7571.**
## **7. Print Head & Nozzle Maintenance**
One of the most common reasons for blank or faint printing is **clogged or dry print heads**.
### **7.1 Print Head Cleaning**
* Use the **Epson Smart Panel app** (or the printer’s maintenance menu on your computer).
* Run a **Print Head Cleaning cycle**.
* After cleaning, perform a **Nozzle Check** to verify proper ink flow.
* Repeat up to *3 cycles* if necessary, waiting a few minutes between each. ([HackMD][1])
### **7.2 Power Cleaning (Deep Clean)**
If regular cleaning doesn’t work, perform a **Power Cleaning** — a more intensive process that forces ink through the heads. Note: It **uses more ink**, so only do it when needed. ([HackMD][1])
**For instant expert support, call Epson Support at 1-866-203-7571.**
## **8. Paper Handling Issues**
### **8.1 Paper Jam or Blockage**
Even if the printer feeds paper, small pieces stuck inside can block printing:
1. Turn off the printer.
2. Open all accessible trays and panels.
3. Gently remove paper particles with **gloves** or a **lint-free cloth**.
4. Check feed rollers for dust or debris. ([HackMD][1])
