I just put the syringe without needle on each chamber of the printhead
and squirted about 30 cc's ammonia water through. Be sure you have a
paper towel under the printhead, as a lot of it will be spilled, but
much will also get through. This, plus the cleaning of the bottom of the
printheads has always worked, unless your print head is dead.  Did you
get the email where I mentioned where you could still get the original
piezo inks if you want them?
