It's been 13 years since I did this. My memory is fading with that much time. I think it took some attention to other parts of the system. Check to make sure you have good suction to the heads and the dampers are full. You can use a syringe to draw ink through the pumping station to clear out any dried ink.
Hi Mate, thanks for your advice. I'm back again working on my printer. I've tried pulling ink from the caps lines and didn't get any ink through any of the lines. However, there were ink in the dampers. I felt some resistance from the black and yellow lines. However, the red and yellow lines had air leak and no resistance. Please what does this mean or what do you suggest I do from here? (I have not changed the caps yet as I want to see if there may be other parts that I may need and order them at the same time).
I'm not sure how the cap top works but I'm unable to pull or flush any fluid through the K, C, M. from the end of the cap top lines. When I put cleaning fluid on top of the K, C, M caps it just sits on top. However, when I put the fluid on the top cap of the Y, the fluid runs through and come out of the end of line. I took out the top caps and put a syringe to the end line of each cap and siphoned each line and there was a strong resistant for K, C, M except for Y. I even tried to run cleaning fluid from the syringe to the line to the cap top but the fluid wouldn't go out of the syringe. Please any suggestions...
