When I turn on
If it is still covered by warranty, I recommend that you contact Epson's support center.
Otherwise, is there any error message displayed on the LCD display?
My printer just quit after printing 1 document.
I would check the power connection and usb cable. For example, unplug the printer; plug back in and see if things go back online. Try another usb slot. If those fails, it may be prudent to seek professional repair or simply to replace it. The CX5800 is getting up there in years and may be less expensive to just replace it.

Not Printing
Most likely not. Some internet shops sell inkjet "solvents" which you put into empty cartridges & run, but it's effectiveness is questionable.
If the print head & the ink tank are separate units (which I must assume since you just replaced the cartridges), then you will have to replace the print heads (the cost of which may exceed buying a new cheap printer.)
If the additional expenses are not worth it & you're ready to throw the darn thing away, then you can try one thing as a last resort before trashing it. Take the print heads out. Place on a cotton cosmetic pad. Dampen the pad with alcohol (not the drinking kind). Leave for days on end & pray. If you're lucky, the jets may unclog. Most likely, not.
Sorry.
