Thanks. I've done all and nothing seems to help. Trying to get a new printhead from alibaba (china). If I cannot get it or is too expensive, I 'll have to throw it away. This is annoying.
OK, after some more days I can push fluid through the head, but the nozzle check shows missing gaps (specially in blue and some in yellow), and the print shows white bands in the cyan (some in the yellow) area. What Can I do now?. Head cleanings do not help.
