Causes Of Printer Blinking Error Epson L3110
Blinking of power, ink, and paper lights (error blinking) on the Epson l3110 printer, generally caused by the following things:

This cable is located under the printer scanner in the casing, to see it then we have to lift the printer scanner by opening the two bolts in front.
For some reason, this cable is sometimes dirty, loose, or detached which results in the scanner not being read by the printer.
The signs are the power, ink and paper indicator lights flashing at the same time.
2. Gear or Roller paper jam
Power lights, ink, and Epson l3110 paper that blink together can also be caused by a printer gear or paper roller that is stuck so that it cannot rotate as it should.
This congestion often occurs because of the remaining pieces of print activity that block the rotation of the gear or paper roller.
The printer Gear is located on the left side of the inside of the printer, we must open the case to be able to see it.
Meanwhile, the paper roller is located on the inside of the upper and lower printer.
3. The Service Life Of The Ink Pad Ends
Epson l3110 printers that experience blinking errors can also occur due to the life of ink pads (waste ink pads) that have ended (full).
