Thank you, Paul, as ever, for your prompt response.

I will have the printer sitting on cleaning fluid until Saturday and 
will see how it goes.  Recently I have been printing mostly colour 
(am I allowed to use that word on this list?) from my trip this 
spring to the US SW deserts but returned to make a sepia print and 
a 'neutral' print for the UK print exchange group.  That was when I 
found some of the cyan nozzles blocked.  A short while ago, a member 
of that group asked how things were with UT2 on the 1290: I responded 
saying I experienced few problems which were easily resolved: clearly 
my reply was the real problem! <g>

Not using the neutral settings is as a result of my conversion to BO 
using Eboni on my 2100!

Cheers,

Colin
