There's a pump to pull the waste ink away from the head sponge into the
waste ink receptacle at the bottom of the printer but I don't think it
actually sucks (sorry, ENR)ink from the head. There is a function to
make the print head run full speed (for want of a better description) to
try to blow ink through all nozzles.
Godfrey's 1270, the 1280, and most of the higher end consumer Epson printers
all have it.
