I got a an error on my 3800 this morning that I had a "cartridge error" on my LLK. I turned off the printer, turned it back on, and the error went away. I ran a nozzle check and everything looked fine.
So I went to print in ABW mode and the LLK clearly stopped being laid down about 10% into the print.
Does this mean my cartridge has to be replaced? It's still half-full.
Of course the Epson documentation says to replace it, but I was wondering if running some cleaning cycles or pulling it out would help.
I don't want to try printing again for fear of damaging the print head, so I was hoping someone else dealt with the same problem before.

Well, I just went for it and its fixed. I took the cartridge out and put it back in and did a power cleaning.
To clarify, the error was that it was an incorrect cartridge. I am 5 months into it's 6 month life based on the status print.
Hopefully this will be helpful for someone else.
