I recently asked this ng about getting a replacement head for this printer.
I have discovered, on taking the head off the spindle, that the section with
the contacts for the print cartridges can be taken out of the head.

Does anyone know if I could get this as a spare part. It was in fact the
colour cartridge contacts that somehow became twisted when I changed the
cartridge. (I find this a bit strange that it happened anyway in what is
normally a smooth and straight forward operation)
 
They may be available from an Epson tech service depot, if you smile and
ask nicely ;-)

Epson doesn't cover this under their warranty if it is caused by using
non-Epson cartridges, or accidentally putting a cart in with no chip.

If you are VERY careful you may be able to move them back, but they are
very brittle metal. They look just like the ones used in some phone
jacks. Maybe you can do something with them.
