    Canon IP3000 wont print

    well put water on a few times and it went down the tubes!. Funny thing is when you remove the cartridges the ink is sat there but nothin on the underneath of the printhead! As its brand new out of the packet it should be OK should it not? The sponges were full of ink but did go nearly white...
