But which is the proper solution, @The Hat?! All those that I've tried were recommended by you and others on this forum, not my inventions!
Let's look, for example, to the pharmacist's post, from the link you have put just above:
The formula that I've used - but only as the last resort, after trying without success all other more soft solutions, including "warm water and a squirt of fairy liquid" - is not so radically different.
It can be written as:
33 ml isopropyl alcohol (well, instead of 20 ml)
33 ml of Windex - which formula is <5% ammonia, <5% isopropyl alcohol, <1% other components and, the rest, distilled water - instead of 20-25 drops of concentrated ammonia
33 ml of water
What do you see so bad here?
Let's look, for example, to the pharmacist's post, from the link you have put just above:
-3 ml propylene glycol (or 2 % glycerol)
-20 ml isopropylalcohol
-distilled water up to 100 ml
The cleaning solution to free up clogged printheads is by adding 20-25 drops of concentrated ammonia to each 100 ml of cleaning solution.
