Clogged printer head on a 1280

Clogged printer head on a 1280

Could someone tell me how to clear a clogged printer head on a 1280 or
refer me to a website that describes the process?
Thank you.

Make a mixture of 1 part ammonia to 10 parts water and put both on the 
parking pad and in empty cartridges to run several sheets of paper 
through the printer. If that doesn't work right away, then let the 
printer sit overnight and try again. This almost always works just 
fine; just be patient.

Your friend in Photography,

Johnny
