The Yellow, Magenta and Cyan cartridges are all brand new... The yellow and cyan were nearly depleted earlier and those were replaced yesterday... and a couple of nozzle checks run, today I replaced the magenta... If the whole carriage was off, the first 5 would not be ok.. and the matte

Re: update on the new printer

Ann, I am neither of those three, but I will chime in as well. In my, even most severe case, when I needed 5+ cycles of head cleaning, none of the colors was missing completely, only certain areas of them. I am guessing that if the entire color is missing, it might be a sign that the clogging

Well I didn't try to mix his formula... I did a couple of other things one or another of the several vids I watched suggested, plus the usualhead cleaner run.. so far the result is that the 5 left-most cartridges and heads are working fine or minorly off... but the 3 right most - cyan,

Re: update on the new printer

On a serious note: In the other thread on "unclogging a printer head" I posted a link to a video from a fellow who describes making a DIY nozzle cleaning solution. His recipe does include Windex, but it is important to note that Windex now has multiple formulations and his recipe specifies using

Re: update on the new printer

Jostein, It's probably the most popular brand of window (and kitchen counter) surface cleaner in the US: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windex "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" movie had a big reference to it. (Btw, that was a nice comedy, imho.) And I referred to that movie in my response as well.

Re: update on the new printer

Jostein, the quoting was used to understand what keeps you attached to your printer. Almost any glue has some solvent that will work on it. :-) Igor PS. Never had to use a solvent against mice droppings, but have to deal with those in the patio every so often. Once, we've got mice visiting

Glad to hear that, Jostein I'm off to B to buy two more cartridges that I should have gotten yesterday... don't ask.. I used the Rite-aidverson of Windex on a paper towel to wipe the spikes last night not realizing it wasn't Official Windex that I was loaned but the same chemistry.

My Epson stylus photo 2100 just keeps on working. It suffered one and a half years sitting in an uninsulated barn, collecting dust and mouse droppings, and still came through after four rounds through the cleaning process. I believe I'm stuck with it for good... Or at least as long as there's
