I do not think so.  If one color is consistently printing wrong (after 
cleaning with windex, soaking and multiple cleaning cycles) it's a 
pretty good indication that the head is gone.  Replacing the ink by the 
pigmented ink (even if it's not a thicker ink at all) will not solve the 
head problem IMHO>
