I just tried the nozzle check for the 1st time, after reading the previous
post about it (checked out fine on mine). I'll have to remember to do it if
there's any degradation in the printing. The Epson 740 has really been
trouble-free for me. I buy cheap generic cartridges too (carsysink.com).
Thanks.
