depends on how long the printer has sat

-is it a new clog?
-is it an old clog?
I would say old however the white inks in the tank are still free flow lol
I see you have another post where you are printing just black ink. Have you been dry firing your printer?

No ink the white but still printing?

That's not good, running your printer without fluid in the nozzles is considered dry firing. Your printer does not know when its out of ink so its going to use all the nozzles if there isn't something there its going to get hot and eventually burn up.

Causing damage from your printhead down to your motherboard.

#1 STOP!

#2 Replace the white ink lines, dampers

#3 Replace your printhead because its toast

#4 Replace your capping station assembly and ribbon cable

White ink is like cement in your printhead and ink lines there is no salvaging in and its not worth the hassle of doing so cause you are going to do it again.
