Status
Non-functional. Printer is electromechanically in working order, but is reporting minor problems, such as clogged nozzles. Marginal success has been seen depositing magenta and cyan ink during built-in test routines.
History
Was donated in near-new condition, needing only a new ink cartridge. However, more pressing concerns delayed us setting it up for a few years. Recently, we have replaced the ink cartridge, and attempted printing.
Issues
DryInkjets
Prolonged disuse is presumed to have resulted in inkjet heads having dried up.
Ultrasonic cleaning may be a solution.
