Google searches it better than the LuLa search does.
Cybis/Luc Busquin made it, I see,

first it was discussed in the middle of that endless thread:
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/forum/index.php?topic=61585.800

and it evolved to this thread:
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/forum/index.php?action=printpage;topic=75383.0

Where this link is given by Cybis:
This method 
(http://lucbusquin.com/content/purge-all-epson-x900-ink-channels) will 
exercise all nozzles in all channels exactly and equally using 
QuadtoneRIP on x900.

Must be possible to use it for other QTR supported models.
