The print head removal procedure is the opposite of the print head install procedure, done when setting up the printer.

With the printer turned on, open the printer as if you would change a cartridge. When the print head carriage is in the change cartridge position, pull out the printer's power cord without first switching off the printer. Remove the cartridges and lift the print head locking lever. The print head can now be lifted out from the printer.

This instruction is for installing the print head in a Canon iP3600. Maybe your printer is so similar, that you can use this instruction backwards:

Thank you PeterBJ. I have removed the head and am washing with warm water. I had the privelege of visiting your city, Copenhagen on a cruise in August 2013. Your Little Mermaid spoke to me of you.
Thanks
