So... has anyone tried this? My father-in-law has a CX4600 all-in-one that
gets sporadic use and more often than not is clogged when he wants to use
it. He knows to turn off the printer with it's on/off switch when it is not
being used, yet it still clogs. It stopped working last week and after
running the cleaning cycle a couple of times without success, the cartridges
were showing as empty. Put in all new carts and the black does not print at
all. Run a cleaning again, and still no black, but color works. Carts are
now showing about 1/8 depleted. Grrrrrrr! Going to try the Windex on the
photo page tomorrow. If that does not work then may try ordering the
Maxpatchink.com cleaning kit.

Subject: [H] Printer heads dry out update
Was in Comp-USA Saturday talking to an Epson rep. He said to spray a piece
of photo paper with Windex and print a multi colored image to clean the
heads. It sounds like it has potential.
If anyone tries it, please let us know how it worked out.
