Hi
I have an Epson R1900 which hasn't been used for a while. The yellow nozzle seems to be quite blocked , I purchased some cheap cleaning fluid and tried to push it through , I don't think anything is going in and if you draw the syringe slightly it snaps back due to vaccum.
I'm not sure what I can try to get this unblocked or is it 100% bin worthy? I don't mind if it's a case of little by little for a few weeks to see if it clears. Ive dampened a tissue under the carriage and it's cleared some.
The other 7 nozzles are free and working fine.
I'd be grateful of any suggestions , I'm not keen on removing the printhead as I know I'd break everything going.
