DEAR JEREMY,
I prayed that your method would work but, after 5 attempts, I am
still getting a midtone gray rectangle which means that the LK and LLK are
printing but not the PK/MK head.
Any other ideas? Living here in Barbados we have lovely weather
but getting things repaired, shipping things in and out for factory service,
and getting parts is a nightmare.
CHEERS!
BOB

Bob,
Before doing a power cleaning just print a large block of pure black. This
will often fix a clog without needing to waste any of the other colors like
a power cleaning. This works for every color, though I don't remember the
RGB numbers for the other colors off the top of my head black is an easy one
:)
Just fill a rectangle with pure black in Photoshop and print it on a sheet
of cheap paper. I like to make a long rectangle that's on the edge of an
8.5x11" page. This way I can just turn the page around and run it back
through if I need to do it again. Never needed to do it more than twice so
far (knock on wood).
