sidrick Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Do you have a printer utility installed that will clean the heads/nozzles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordie_aaron Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 yeah - tried all those options.... 1 sheet got jammed as i put it in bent and loads of ink was on that...... just as it slides along 'printing' it doesn't leave the ink. but when i've taken the inks out again....the ink IS 100% coming out the bottom as it should.... i thought it was just clogged as no being used for a couple month... but im stumped now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeeWee Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I use this on Epson printers, its the utility used to service them, far more useful than anything you get with the printer.clicky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottg17 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Has the printer registered that it has new ink or not? sometimes repeating the pint cleaning a few times will fix the prob mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
