I wasn't using the printer much except to do tests once a week to keep the heads clean. I got that bit right. Unfortunately I let the CO on my Pro10s run out and suck air in. Can it be salvaged, or am I stuffed?
Thanks for any help.

No, the CO is usually very forgiving..

Thank you Hat. So should I just keep doing test prints each week and it will eventually push the ink through?

If your happy with your weekly test prints that will be ok, but I assume you’re talking about nozzle checks and not actual prints ?

Yes, I am talking about nozzle checks. So it is just a waiting game.
