Digital BW, The Print

Have been using an Epson 1200 with the Permaflow CIS and VT Blax varitone
inks - I think this is the UK version of MIS hexachrome inks. Results have
been fine though the cool tone is far too blue for my liking - the neutral
Cool is a bit too cool but the warm tones on Lyson standard Fine Art paper
are outstanding.

However...I get random clogging. Reset the colour cartridge today as I had
my fist 'ink out' light and the black cart now refuses to print. I've tried
three cleaning cycles and printed a purge pattern followed by two more
cleaning cycles but the problem has got worse not better. Any one know
anything else I can try - pumping all that ink through the heads in
continuous cycles of cleaning seem to do no good whatever.
