Re: Troubleshooting Epson Artisan 1430 -- nozzle checks failing
2016-02-15 by paulmwhiting@...
The use of different sources of cartridges rang a bell for me... I had trouble with carts from various suppliers getting recognized and finally bought a set from Jon Cone. I felt a bit disloyal as he has another way of doing black and white as opposed to Paul Roark's. But apparently, I hope it's to safe to say they're "friendly rivals".
But Jon's carts work very well, and another thing I like about them is that they are manually resettable.
Back to the main issue... what I've learned is that works with clogs is time and patience. Sometimes it has worked for me just to apply whatever techniques and then let the printer sit overnight or a few days and let the solvent work at its own place. Easier said than done, I realize.
HTH,
Paul
