Re: Nozzle Clogs on 1280 With MIS VM Cartridges

2003-03-05 by Shilesh Jani

Tom,

Try putting in the Epson OEM carts.  I have found these OEM inks to 
be very good at clearing out bad nozzle checks.  There is something 
magical about them - probably very well filled, that's all.  I have 
two 1280s, and I routinely give one of them some rest with OEM carts.
