Unlike the HP printers, StyleWriters (Canons) have separate inkjet and reservoirs (the cartridge). The inkjets are likely still clogged. On a StyleWriter Pro I was able to unclog severely clogged inkjets by soaking them in denatured alcohol (90% Iso-propyl alcohol should do also). I took the ink cartridges out and just soaked the receiver port in alcohol and ran cleaning passes on the printer. This is one reason I like the HP printers. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
