Default How to "de-coke" Epson printer ink jets ?

I have the Epson Stylus Photo 890 printer and it has been little used for
some time.
I put in a new set of ink cartridges, ran the cleaning cycle several times
but still it won't fire from all the jets.

Last time this happened to me was with a previous printer which was in
warranty and the engineer attended and sorted out in a "few minutes"
according to the person who was present, but I wasn't so didn't see how he
did it / any re-aligning procedure.

Can anyone tell me how to get the ink flowing on this or a similar model ? I
am sure its the bit that the cartridges sit on that has got some jets
blocked.

Thanks,

Nick
