Thank you so much.
I used one brand of cheaper (recycled) cartridges although I now realise that buying a stock of them was silly as the inks can cause problems if out of date.

I can see an option for Head cleaning on the printer but no other cleaning option.

Presumably I should I just keep inserting the cartridge in and out (turning on and off etc) to allow the printer to do its own cleaning?

Thank you again
Hope you have a good day
Tim

yes, please use this 'Head cleaning' function , start it and do a nozzle check print once it finishes - the driver is directly offering that after the cleaning action, and you may start the cleaning function again, but don't do it more than a few times. Re-inserting the cartridge is not a good idea because that can get new airbubbles into the ink flow .
