I have a 1270 the way I have cleaned the rollers is to run cheap printer
paper through it a few times.
The leaking should be fixed by installing a new cartridge. so much of the
printing work is done by the cartridge. all the nozzles are there etc..

Subject: [OM] printer woes
So I'm down to the wire and I have to print out photos for my wife and I
to enter in the county fair this week and leave enough time to have them
matted tomorrow. Preliminary results from PhotoShop look promising
except for some ink spots on the proofs. Just clean up the rollers I
think. But the next proof has bigger smudges. I open the lid and watch
the heads smear black ink on the rollers as it moves back and forth
which in turn leave black tracks on my picture. &^%$#@ A call to Epson
seems to indicate "crud on the heads" syndrome which requires
disassembly, clean, recalibrate.
Anyone else have this problem with an Epson printer? Is it user
serviceable? Printer is a 2000p which looks basically like a 1280.
You Latte Drinkers in the Seattle area know of a good service center? So
far I talked to Kevin at the Mac Store on 45th who seemed knowledgeable.
The local person with the 9600 in town is off on the mainland so that
option is out. So now I'm waiting for a friend with a 2200 to call back
and offer the use of their printer.
thanks, Mike
