Epson blinking red after replacing cartridges usually occurs because the printer hasn’t properly recognized the new ink. This can happen if the cartridges aren’t fully seated, the protective tape wasn’t removed, or incompatible cartridges were used. To fix it, turn off the printer, reseat the cartridges firmly, and ensure they are genuine or compatible Epson cartridges. Close the cover, power on the printer, and run a test print. The Epson blinking red should stop once the printer detects the new ink correctly.
