I have now received the new PRO-1 Printhead, what is the next move?
PS What does PM stand for apart from Post Mortem or Prime Minister ?
Many thanks for your help so far.

Please tell me how - it's 2300 in Europe, so I'm going to bed for the moment.

My new printhead is on it's way from France :) It is currently clearing the customs. I hope it gets to me safe and sound, and I will be able to use that successful formula "Patience + The Hat = Success".

Private Message. Also used as a verb "to PM someone", thanks to the wonderful way of word formation - zero derivation, or conversion, which is possible in the English language because of it's analytic nature.

So, I am ready to install the new print head. I turned the printer on - with the old leaking print head - to check whether I have enough ink supply in the cartridges.
Almost immediately after startup the printer showed the 1300 error (paper jam), but there is no paper in the tray, not even little bits. No foreign objects either. So I wonder, is it becase of the faulty print head, or may be some sensor got dirty with the leaked ink, and I will face the same problem after the head swap. And I allowed to perform a change of the print head in this situation at all?
