Default Lexmark question!

A friend has a Lexmark all-in-one scanner/printer/fax,
it showed low ink, they replaced ink, & still no printing!
I know the stand alone printers have the same problems!
Can you easily clean the print heads? Any common "tricks",
to get it working? It's in perfect shape! Thanks, Rono.

I have a Lexmart X75 & have been refilling my Black caterages for about
a year. Often when I add ink the cat. will not print right. I put
common isoprell (rubing alachol) in a glass ash tray & clean the print
head, (they clog up) Slosh it gently in alachol & blot it on paper
towell, some times have to do this a couple of times to clear it. When
you put it back let the printer do the test page. The print head is
made into the bottom of cartrage
