You can also just put a few drops of ammoniated window cleaner into the ink cartridge outlet and a few drops on the ink nipple (the spike that punctures the ink cartridge) before installing it, this can help to prevent an air lock, clean the valve and help the ink to run better.

I have changed all 4 colour cartridges on my fairly new Epson Stylus
D68 (it's not yet one year old) but I cannot get it to print the colour
red for love nor money.
I have repeatedly used the head cleaning facility in maintenance (from
printing preferences) but I still cannot get red out of this printer.
It was all fine before I changed the cartridges.
As I suggested this morning to someone with the same problem:

Happens sometime.
One of the cures is to remove the cartridge, then insert a
straightened paper clip in the ink hole of the cartridge. Push in and
out a few times for the valve to wake up.
Do it over a newspaper or tissue, not on your lap as a few drops of
ink are likely to come out.
Re-insert cartridge. Should work.
