Hi there,

after 5 months not printing (travelling, photographing, developing, scanning) etc,
I tried to reactivate the Epson 4900 again, which I bought in May 2011.

I printed a nozzle test pattern and only 4 nozzles are clear,
the other 7 are 100% clogged, i.e. 0% ink on the paper!!!

Warrenty is only 1 year, so I'm a bit desperate.

I now know that regular printing seems to be a _must_,
before I only thought that some clogging will appear,
which can be fixed with a couple of powerful cleaning runs...


Hmmm what issue could that be? Extreme clogging in the head and within the hoses between ink and head?

Has anyone experienced something like that?


Does anyone have a 4900 repair manual / service manual?


Best,
Martin
