    Hey there! OK, so when I print the printer (EPSON STYLUS COLOR 440) moves as it should and the paper runs thru, but when it comes out the other side there isn't a single thing printed on the page. I have replaced the ink cartridge, so I don't think it's that. Possibly a driver issue? I have no idea. I d.l.'d an updated driver from Epson, but still nothing.

    possible the print head is clogged with dried ink.

    Is there a way to rectify this, or would I have to get a new cartridge?

    Thanks

    you can't fix that with a new cartridge on an epson printer. You would need the head cleaned...
