I see numerous post by people having trouble with clogged heads, perhaps due to under use. MIS Supply has a free program call MIS Autoprint which will allow you to print a page at scheduled times from once daily to, I believe, once a week. I set it to print every 3 days at 9PM. I use a photo which has all different colors. The head on my MP600 prints perfect head test patterns after having gone through 8 oz of pigment black and 4 oz of each color. I consider it a very worthwhile addition. It's at www.inksupply.com on the CFS page about halfway down and is called Autoprint - PC Version.

And what about the scheduler service? (Control Panel > Scheduled Tasks)
