If your EPSON Ecotank printer keeps jamming or having paper feed issues then this fix may work for you, thanks for watching! If you have any questions please ask them below.
The cleaning product I am using is AF Platenclene (link below) I highly recommend it, be really careful when using isopropanol or other cleaning solutions they can damage components and cause an even bigger problem I speak from experience.

I learned the back part came off on my ET-2800! I clicked a little white plactic part back into place and now it works again, thanks.

I had a little piece stuck and took needle nose pliers in the back where the paper goes and got the piece out, cause I saw no way to remove the back cover. Hope you can help in case it happens again.

@@lindabradford9591 I found out today...the top can come off completely. First, you have to pull out and up the display screen, then pull down another part under(the part with the serial number). Lift gently the display screen and it will lift the top to a small degree. To the left side where the power button is, there is a little sliding part you have to slide it through a little maze thing. Then it will lift completely. Now towards the back, there are two parts you squeeze together to snap out the top. Lol...no screws involve just snap snap....while doing that I accidentally temporarily fixed my feeding issue. The feeding ball at the bottom fell out. I somehow wondered if I can print without it, tried it and it worked, only downside, can only fit one paper in at a time. I saw a video showing how to turn over the printer and put it back in...I'll do that some other time. Right now I have work to do and can't risk it not working again

Thanks! I didn’t even have to go this far with cleaning it- it turns out something fell inside and kept misaligning the paper while being fed through 😑 I thought the new Epson eco tank et-2850 was junK before I even got to use it.

Would the inside rollers be the cause when the paper feed stops half way into the feeder?

@OnthLvRoad 2 ай бұрын

I had the same issue and I repair it a few hours ago after disassemble the device 6 times... The first time I found a torn paper that was 2x2cm from last year (I recognize the document). Then a scan error appeared, I disassemble again and failed but that allows me to understand how to disassemble the upper part of the device entirely. My problem was that my paper can't slide so the last time, I disassemble the whole thing and I really check all the little hole where the paper should slide and I found my bunny's pellet (3mm) in the middle hole... I took it with a barbecue stick with a double sided adhesive paper at the end. I used "Kevin at bch" channel with the video named "100016 scanner error" (there are 2 videos I watched both of them). If you don't have warranty like me anymore, I truly recommend to try this. And make a camera record while you disassemble so that you know the place of every piece. I recommend to be with someone to help because I couldn't do it on my own. I hope this will help !

I have a Epson ET-15000 how do you take the paper tray off of the rear feed to clean those rollers? Thank You

@DanielJohnHowTo 3 ай бұрын

I would refer to the epson website and user manuals as that printer is quite expensive you wouldn't want to break anything and I can't advise properly as I don't have that model unfortunately.

I have the same crooked paper problem! Despite it being tightly within the blue tabs it drags one side of the paper down and feeds it through at an angle and it folds the corner when it feeds and doesn’t print properly. Printer is 18 months old ET3800 and done 2 whole sets of ink. Thanks for the back panel tip, I will take it off and report back …

if you do a lot of printing and have paper jams it could be the paper because I had the same issue

@pippijane20 Ай бұрын

What happens if you do this and it DOESNT help? Says paper jam or foreign object and theres no paper jam- it was happily printing away and then just STOPPED. I have one day left to send it back and i know its not broken... wits end. SOS

if you have tried everything, then it could just be faulty.
