This option doesn't seem to exist anymore in the System Preferences for
Printers and Faxes for the B9180. The printhead cleaning option only
seems to allow multiple passes at the same level. Maybe that is enough,
but it is a very slow process.

As an aside, the selection panel says this takes about two minutes. It
takes more like 10 or more. Maybe it actually is deep cleaning. I
don't know.

I would go to the HP Printers web page to see if they have updated Print
drivers and utilities.

I had to do this for my Epson Inkjet printer after upgrading to Snow
Leopard.
