Re: [Digital BW] Epson 1430 Cleaning Solution

2013-04-30 by Sylvain M.

Jus my 2c: A few months ago, I decided to keep my 1400 ON, and since
then I did not have clogging any more. Completely finished... Since I
have a CISS, I find this much better than cleaning!

with my new Epson 1430, which I am using for color printing. The old
1400 is now a dedicated B&W machine. It seems the black ink head was
quite clogged and I emptied a full set of cartridges (MIS, not Epson!)
doing head cleanings before I finally got a good nozzle check. This got
me thinking that I really should get some head cleaning fluid, but which
one to buy? Most of the commercially available fluids are nearly as
expensive as ink - and are probably just distilled water and a bit of
ammonia and alcohol. I have nearly a pint of PR-Clearbase-PT solution.
Any thoughts as to how this would work as a head cleaning solution?
Should I add a little ammonia and/or isopropyl alcohol?
