I have an Epson Artisan 50 that I'm using with a CISS. I like the printer but for the last several months I've had cleaning problems that the cleaning utility won't fix:
1. Yellow often will not print at all without repeated cleaning cycles.
2. Lots of streaking in all colors.
3. Printing of pictures (kids, etc) is really crappy because a particular color (usually yellow) will get spotty/stop printing/have missing lines at various points in the page, and because of streaking.
Is there a way to really clean this printer to return to like-new clean condition? Note that I've seen the more generic cleaning guides on line, but I can't figure out how, on this printer, to get to the print heads directly. Note that I've put a cotton swab on the cleaning pad to soak up extra ink.
