2 colours in my cartridge are blocked

2 colours in my cartridge are blocked

2005-05-22 by freduardook2000

i have a mis continious flow system with org b w colour
and a 1200 epson printer

i first thought that my tubes are blocked 
but now i cleaned them and the problem still was there
so i tried to pull out some ink with a syringe without the tubes atached

on 2 colours i still feel a lot of resistance when i pull back the
syringe   so the problem must be inside the cartridge 

any ideas how i could clean a cartridge 

sure a new one would be the easiest but i am not from usa and i dont
have a credit card so it is very difficult to order stuff from usa

thanks for any help

just found out that now after a special treatment only 1 colour is
still blocked when i do a nozzle check 
curious is this :
when i print a test pattern the colour appears 
 
magenta in my case   

looikng at the nozzle check magenta is not visible and on the test
pattern it is fully visible not even a banding line  
this is getting more and more difficult

adios fred
