Q: L220

A: Please let us know what is the problem are you facing with this L220 printer, so that we can help you exactly.

Q: Why my epson L220 printer red light is blinking? How can I fix this?

A: Red light blinking in L220 printer means the printer may have roller jam problem OR sensor problem occurs. So, please check for roller jam and fix it.

Second, check the sensor's head and clean it too. If you can't do it manually, then check out the following video tutorial.

As an alternate, we suggest you to please follow the power drain process, maybe this will work for you.

Power Drain
Follow the following steps to power drain the printer.

  1. Turn off your printer and then unplug all the cables from the back of the L220 printer.
  2. Second, press and hold the power button of the printer for 30 seconds, after 30secĀ realize it.
  3. Now, put all the cable back to the printer and turn the printer ON, power drain process has been done here.

      The problem seems to be in the print head. It might need replacement.

    Hello there, I already clean the sensor disk and roller jam. When I turn on the printer it fixed and I can print and scan. However when I turn off the printer for more than 5 hours the problem will return again and I try to clean again and fixed again but after 5 hours of not using it it will return to same error.

      It could probably be paper jam. Please reset your printer settings to default using its resetter. Here’s the resetter download link: https://epson.com/support/epson-ink-pads-reset-utility-faqs

      Have you cleaned both the sensors properly? Have you done that in this way: https://youtu.be/R2mjmTRA9io
      Also, clean the rollers as well.

    Our Epson l220 printer had also this 2 red light blinking saying error and that we should cancel all print jobs, open the scanner and remove any jammed paper, close the unit and turn the power off and then on again. I already did those, even though there’s no paper jammed going on. It still keeps on blinking I can’t print anymore.

    When I am trying to print a document on my L220 printer, it is again and again showing a dialog box saying that your ink level is too low and red light is also blinking. I have refilled the ink but still I am facing the same problem.

      If this is the case, then we suggest you to please download and run the Epson L220 Adjustment resetter tool. It has the option to reset the Ink level.
