hi,
I have an Australian Epson photo 720 which is the equivalent to the photo
700. I print out the colour pattern after doing a head clean and the photo
blue is missing most bars, I have done a number of head cleans and still not
full pattern. I am using a continuous ink system but I assume a blocked head
would need the same type of cleaning wether for a cartridge or continuous
ink feed.

thanks for the advice,

Hi Grant,

I had similar problems with my Photo 700, and found that I had to do at least 6
if not 10 head cleans before the problem was fixed.

I tried refilling the ink catridge and after a couple of fills my heads got
clogged and repeated cleaning cycles did not help. It cost AU$80 (in Melbourne)
to get the heads clean. It is still going strong, but I'm using Epson brand ink now.
 
hi ben,
thanks for the advive, where in melbourne did you get your heads cleaned? i
might need it done properly, i will try 10 cleaning cycles and see if that
works.

regards,
grant.

On St Kilda Rd just south of St Kilda junction. I don't remember the name, but
when I rang Epson direct, they referred me to that shop.
