It helps to know the model number and what your printing.

but.......

"magic inkjet flush" head cleaning kit. i got one on ebay for about 20-25 bucks. soak it over night in the solution. worked for two of my epson 3000's and now i have a ton of solution left over to service printers for years to come.

if that doesnt work. its pretty clogged. if a 3 night soak and some serious cleaning doesnt help, your shopping for a new print head or a complete new printer.

with the CORRECT chemicals and application methods.....explained in the kit in full detail. you should be able to get it flowing. the secret is in the soak time. you cant actually touch the dried in k so you must just soak and wait for the chemical of choice to saok up "to " the problem area.

good luck

Kevin

i didnt take off the printhead just lay a soaked soft "pillow" provided in kit. looks like a mini tampon. it sits under the heads with the printer off and the head slid to the left. i believe you turn the printer on and then when the head moves away from the storage area you yank the power cord from the socket so it is movable and the " solvent soaked pillow" will fit below the print head and soak up the juice.
