Alan, I know what the problem is. I had the same problem with my Epson printer. Easy fix....

Take it back and buy a proper printer - like a HP.:laugh:

I take it there wasn't some packaging in the internals stopping the carriage moving that you didn't remove ?

I never buy Epson printers as they used to put some code into the printer so that when it got to so many prints, it would dump the cartridges onto the inside of the printer, rendering it unuseable... :argh::argh: Don't know if that practice is still going...
