After all my clogging nightmares, I've been working on a good
cleaner/solvent - better than Windex/Fantastik for Epson printers. We have
one that seems to do an excellent job on Cone and MIS pigmented inks - and
it's fully biodegradable. I'm looking for a few volunteers with terminal
clogs to give the product a try using the "Windex" method - either pad to
soak heads or direct injection and extraction from heads. If it proves
successful in restoring a few old dead 1160s, 3000s etc. then I will make it
available to the list at a reasonable cost. I will send the first six
volunteers a small bottle (free) with the following caveat:

This is a largely UNTESTED product. While I have no reason to believe that
it will damage Epson heads, and while it has shown great promise on
pigmented inks, I will not be responsible if damage results to your printer.
CAVEAT EMPTOR. If you have an otherwise dead (from clogs) printer -
especially one that's been sitting for a long time unused, let me know off
list. If you're one of the first six, I will send you a trial bottle of the
product free.
