OK I have an MP620 with a bad logic board good print head, now I found a 620 with a bad print head and good logic board, however I never removed the good print head and it is dry dry dry (should have flushed it or left wet cartridges in it) oh well it has been sitting for say 9 months in the printer. Soooooo what would be the best way to soak the head for maybe a week then try to flush? Any and all ideas are welcome. may the forum be with you

@mrelmo, No great big hassle at all, to start with just leave it to soak in a bowl of warm water with a couple of drops of Dreft washing liquid in it right up to the ink inlets, add a good couple of squirts of Windex also especially in and around the ink inlets.

Then check on it occasionally and add a couple more squirts of Windex if needed, if you leave it there a week it will come out fresh as a daisy, then dry it thoroughly but before putting it back into the printer put one or two drops of Windex on each ink inlet.
Happy Printing..
