Epson picture mate PM-400
Hi everyone,

I have an Epson PictureMate PM-400 that was unused for more than a year. After setting it up, all prints are completely blank,

I have tried:
  • Printing from computer and mobile — both blank.
  • Built-in Nozzle Check — completely blank.
  • Head Cleaning twice — no improvement.
  • Ink level decreases after cleaning/nozzle checks.
  • Cartridge is an Epson 320-I Initial Cartridge and all four ink outlets appear wet/contain ink.
Since the printer was unused for a long time, I suspect the print head/nozzles or ink delivery path is clogged.

Can anyone help with:

  1. How can I confirm whether ink is reaching the print head?
  2. Is there a safe way to physically/manual clean the PM-400 print head?
  3. Is there any cleaning solution/method ?
  4. Please advice how to solve this issue and get printer Working..
Thanks in advance
