RE: [Digital BW] 2000P query

2005-05-05 by Paul Roark

If the suggestion below does not work, buy cleaning carts from MIS and let
that sit in there for a while.  Also, cleaning the heads from the bottom
with some bias tape (or folded paper towel) and Windex or Simple Green might
knock off dried ink. You may well be able to save the printer.  Any clogs
will be right at the outlets.

Good luck.
