They sell kits. The "solvent" used is just plain ink base with no
dye/pigment in it. I've used it here with excellent results.

I don't know for a fact, but i'd ask at cartridgeworld. I'm not in the
UK but i've seen the name popup from time to time.

http://www.cartridgeworld.co.uk/

Otherwise, windolene(sp) I believe is the prefered medium for a
cleaning solution.

The one I hear most often reccomended is "windex no drip formula" which
is ammonia and alchohol if i'm not mistaken. I think the Windolene
equilivent would be "crystal clear formula" but I don't know... the
only cleaning solution i've met personal was Detol no taint.

I'd be afraid of UK tap or any other reason with heavy water. While
i've not met it personaly trying to match the taste of british ales
requires adding talc... lots and lots of talc. It might not be an
issue but then again why take a chance with a cleaning product that
costs a pound or so wil do the trick and leave you with something to
clean a window.

Thanks. i've seen the windex mentioned before i beleive it has to be
watered down first.

as for windolene i don't know if the mixture is the same. I take it the
ingredient we printer users are interested in is ammonia?

Some Cartridge Worlds (www.cartridgeworld.org) will try to clean the
printhead for you. Try taking it in and asking. You have nothing to lose

sure if the power switch is faulty. It wobbles an awful lot.

Hi Ian,
Sorry I'm too late, but you could have saved yourself a whole lot of
expense by using JetTec Cartridge Flush; soaking the printhead
nozzles for a couple of hours in a saucer with a shallow depth of
this solution will usually cure the problem.
Obtainable from www.mouse2house.co.uk.
Might be useful for future reference.
