Hello,
I have Brother DCP-T220 inkjet printer (Tank Refill system), I forgot to print a page every 10 - 15 days as I should with inkjet printers, and after 2+ months of being idle I needed to print and the print quality was very bad -both colored and black-.
Did some normal cleaning pages, very slight improvement, tried Deep Clean cycle (repeated three times) and problem was not solved.
Did some research online and found out a method involving unplugging power while the printer is printing something to release the head, then opening the printer, placing a tissue damped with distilled water for about 15 minutes under the print head to dissolve the dry ink.
Do you recommend this method? or do you have a better way?
Thanks in advance for your time.
Kind Regards
