Hi all, iv'e just bought a canon prograf 605 on ebay for 11 pence !!!!! it came with cartridges installed and a set of 6 extra cartridges. I picked it up today 400 mile round trip but hey sod the expense.
Ive plugged it in and it goes through the motions but when i click print it comes up with "execute printhead cleaning, if this message is displayed again replace printhead"
I was wondering if it's possible to clean this printhead off the printer and what would be best way to do it ( it's a pf-03 printhead) and 350 to replace
Have i been ripped off lol !!!
Just to add, even though it's been through several head cleanings the ink levels havent dropped at all, i dont mind buying a new head for it but dont want to blow 350 if it's not the problem. Is there anyone who can test the head or anything else i can try, iv'e looked at various head cleaning kits but some say "not suitable for large format"
Any advice much appreciated
