Hi Ron,

Just tonight I happened to come across a note in InkJetArt's e-mail
newsletter regarding a head cleaning kit that includes syringes and an ink
solvent--supposedly used by Epson tech folks--for removing really stubborn
clogs. You may want to check out:  http://fixyourownprinter.com/kea0.html. I
think the kit cost is something like $10 so, for a total investment of $35,
you might wind up with a really decent printer...assuming, of course, that
nothing else is wrong with it! Anyway, maybe worth considering............

Good luck,
Alan Huntley
