Thanks everybody, fingers crossed

Thanks once again. Due to current medical problems. I do not feel confident that I can strip the whole printer down, and not really got suitable area to do so. This head will have to take its chance. Put in a new Photo Black/ink. New scan attached. I print few photos these days mostly web...

Thanks for your support and comments regarding the purge unit and PB cart/ink. I have looked as best I can at the purge unit flooded it with water. It does not pool but drains away. I tried checking the gaskets pads are clean and this time fluid still drained away but more slowly. Frankly to...
