Re: head clogging - UNCLOGGING Print every day, I skip one day on my t3 and I'm fighting to unclog it. I am on my third printhead since I bought the machine 1 year ago but I believe I have got a pretty good system going now. Every day when I'm done printing I wipe around the edge of the capping station with a q- tip soaked in windex. I manually eject the wiper blade,clean and stow it and then put several drops in each side. Enough to make it obviously wet but not full of liquid(this can cause a siphoning effect that will empty your tanks into the waste tank so clip off the hoses also) I have even had to remove the print head from the machine and force liquid through the printhead but be sure to power down and unplug both the power cord and USB before removal. I once had nightmares with this machine but now get perfect prints every day on a Fast T Jet 3 refurb. Hard to believe, huh? |
