Finally I have picked up this thread again to let those who responded, know the outcome of my problem, As I said the printer kept repeating the head clean process,and being totally p----d of I put it in the shed for the next tip trip. I was later told to manually force the print head out of the head clean position (Left ) to break the chip connection, having done this it went into the usual clean process and parked. I have had no further problems with this . Relating to colour reproduction the inks I use are as good as Epson I have some good prints of photos I have taken, many thank your input, ( not sure if am allowed to give the details of the inks I use on this forum )
