I had the same problem, it happened twice in within a month. Trouble is
I didn't realise it was the tube that was clogged. I "blew" out the clog
with a syringe by detaching the tube from the carts elbow joint.
Trouble was I covered my wall with black ink !!!.

I have had two months of trouble free printing now.

Hope it helps

Josh
