Well folks it's fixed. I tried the computer ON-OFF approach, tried to check the ink levels, no joy. I even went on the Epson help chat line. Still no joy. I then did fat8biker "Daves" solution and fitted a complete set of new cartridges (That gave me a pain in the wallet as all but the cyan were recently replaced) but it worked. I now have a working R800 again.
Thanks for all suggestions.
CHEERS Vic.

You did not read it right if you had it might have saved you some money.

Remove all the inks and then put them back in.
This might fool the printer in to thinking you have replaced with new.

If you print using Elements to colour manage, i have found the print turns out darker than if you use the printer to colour manage.
This is using an Epson 720.

The problem with 35mm, either a slide or neg, is ... you have to produce an output of some type.... If you're scanning then you need a lot of elements in the process to come together optimally....

A digital camera with FF can produce all this with just one press of the shutter.
Yes, and that speaks for the convenience of digital. But excellent as digital is right now, even the best does not yet quite match the quality of some film in some hands. Those hands will be greatly more experienced than mine ... but I can judge the results with my eyes readily enough, and digital still has a distance to travel, if indeed it will ever match the tonal qualities of film.
About 25 years, by then most if not all film users will be pushing up the buttercups.

Thanks all
It appears from web search's a graphics card is overkill for image editing, as you dont need 3D.
Money is better spent on a fast CPU (i7-3770K).
I am making a list of components, as i have allways wanted to build a PC.

Hi all
Will a graphics card be a worth while upgrade for photoshop elements.
Or stay with the onboard graphics and upgrade the CPU and fit more Ram.
