Epson Printer


[link to this post]
 
After only a few years light use [new 2002] our Epson C80 ink jet printer has packed up. After not being used for several months there are now blocked print nozzles which have defied the usual nozzle cleaning cycles. It seems a shame to just put it on the tip, when it may be of use to someone for spares, or for someone with more patience and expertise than I have at clearing nozzles.
It can be collected for free from Manchester area.
Send me a private message [PM] for location.

If the nozzles are blocked if you simply hold the cartridge in a saucer of warm water for a minute or so (not touching the bottom of the saucer) that may do the trick.

That trick also works with Asthma Inhalers, and such like
