My brother recently gave me an Epson R200 printer with an ink system fitted. He hadn't used it for a while and the inks have gone 'sludgy'. Is there any way i can flush the bottles and cartridges to refill them?
Whatever you do, don't run the head cleaning utility without replacing the ink. You'll kill the print head if the ink has gone 'Sludgy' as you have said. Buy some cheap ink (refills will do) and run the maintenance routine until the lines printed are solid. While you are at it, ask your normal ink refill supplier if they can deal with the large CIS bottles. You may be stuck with having to use the manufacturers (of the CIS) inks.
