Printing Has Stopped But The Pause Light Is Off; You See A System Memory Error Message On Your Pc And The Printer Does Not Print - Epson Stylus 1500 Reference Manual

Printing has stopped but the Pause light is off.

One or both ink cartridges may be empty or too old. A
cartridge is too old if it has been used longer than six months or
beyond the date on its packaging. First clean the print heads as
described in Chapter 3. If this does not solve the problem,
replace the ink cartridge(s).
Caution:
c
If you replace an ink cartridge before its Ink Out light flashes,
the sensor that tells you when the ink is out will not work with
the new cartridge.
Make sure both ends of the interface cable are plugged in
securely.
The cable between the printer and computer might not meet
the specifications for the printer or computer.
Turn off the printer and perform a self test as described in
Chapter 1 of your Setup and Software Guide. If the self test does
not print, the problem is with the printer. If the self test prints
correctly, the problem is probably caused by your software.
You see a system memory error message on your PC
and the printer does not print.
The Copies options in the Windows printer driver require
additional system memory. If you see an error message or are
unable to print using these options, try closing any unnecessary
applications, reducing the size of your print job, turning off the
Copies options, or increasing system memory.
