[PRODIG] 1160 'communication error'

[Richard Lewisohn]

Having had to replace a defunct Epson 1160, I've installed the Lyson 
Continuous Ink System (as before), successfully done several head 
cleans via the Epson Printer Utility, and pressed 'print'.  However I'm 
getting a dialog reading 'communication error with the printer.  Please 
reset (or turn on) the printer and try printing again'.  I've of course 
done that (and also restarted - Mac OSX 10.3, Photoshop CS), but to no 
avail.

It seems strange that Epson Printer Utility can tell the printer to do 
head cleans and nozzle checks, but that the printer software thinks it 
isn't communicating.  The only other strange thing is that there is no 
ink level reading at all (empty or otherwise) in the Printer Utility.

If anyone has any thoughts as to a next stop I will be most grateful.
