Re: Printed with no paper! Yech! Help!

Don,

I did the same thing with an Epson 1200. I just cleaned up what I 
could see with windex and paper towels and then ran sheets of plain 
paper through the printer until there were no more ink stains.  As I 
recall, it was not that awful and did not take a huge number of 
sheets to get one that came through clean on both sides.
