I would appreciate help in finding someone local that does apple computer/epson printer repair inexpensively.i can't print, and screens say that it is out of ink, but that is not the case since we just refilled the ink. So frustrated…I am just a tech person.

I wish I was a tech person, there used to be a computer repair shop on 1960 near Timber Forest in that shopping strip with the meat market and car repair shop. www.computeravenue.com is their website

I also recommend Computer Avenue, I used them this summer - their work, customer service, and prices were outstanding!

Sounds stupid, but sometimes unplugging for 10 min, & then powering on sometimes works.

Texasdaughter : Is the cartridge an Epson brand or an off-brand? I have been using Epson printers for years and use both Epson and off-brands. Sometimes you just need to take out the cartridges and just reinstall them, i.e. Just lift them up and click them in again.
 
Another option is to go to settings and do a head cleaning and it will then hopefully recognize the new cartridges.
 
Same thing will work with alignment.
 
Epson is notorious for having glitches like this and it depends on how old the printer is. If it is older, it will be prone to a few more glitches, but there are work arounds.
 
Another option is if you have Apple Support or even if you don't they usually still will help you. Sometimes they will work with you over the phone and take over you computer and show you what to do.

Thank you for great support. Not being a tech person is a true handicap in today's world - VOE.

Texasdaughter : I suggest you contact Epson's customer service at 562-276-1300 to see if they can help get your printer back on line. The customer service rep I spoke with yesterday was able to get my printer back up and running.

We just dealt with something similar over the last 2 days at the MIL's place. iMac and a Canon printer. Computer suddenly couldn't find the printer. Same error message...out of ink, but it wasn't. Tried everything but couldn't get computer connected to the printer even though she hadn't disconnected or changed anything. Bought a new printer yesterday..newer version of the same Canon...hooked right up and is working as it should. Her printer wasn't that old, but apparently too old.

I know what's going to happen to me-- I'll be on a ventilator in the hospital and my kids will unplug it to charge their cell phone. 🙄🫩😬
