Bernhard,

One good thing to try would be to install a set of Epson cartridges and run
a nozzle check. The Epson inks seem to be very good at cleaning out clogged
nozzles. You will have to remove both CIS cartridges and install both the
color and B&W Epson cartridges. I always try to keep some Epson cartridges
on hand for this. There is no need to purge when switching except for the
nozzle checks.

Subject: [Digital BW] clog with CIS and MIS VM on black cart


After not having used the printer (1160 with MIS variable mixed tones) for a
while - not too long - I noticed that while the colors were good after one
cleaning cycle, the black one is 100% clogged. The paper stays litterally
white.

What would you others out there suggest? Put in cleaning cartridges? (I\ufffdd
have to put back the parts you have to take out to install the CIS) but then
is it possible to use the same CIS after this?
Or put some cleaning fluid on the the place where the printhead settles when
switched out?

I\ufffdd be very thankful for any advice...

greetings Bernhard
