Epson Experts ~ 7600 Help
Clark:
I picked up a used 7600 yesterday, and it's been sitting in a hot print shop for the last year and a half. To my surprise after one head cleaning from the control panel, all heads are working somewhat. I read that if you run 5-6 consecutive head cleanings and nozzle checks that each progressive cleaning will get stronger. Only problem is when I open up the system preferences and go to the 7600 there is no utility tab for me to perform a nozzle check or head cleaning. I am running OSX. Any help with finding the utility, or on cleaning the heads is appreciated.

Don't have OCX and don't have an Epson, but did some surfing anyway. God I love the internet, lol.
Try browsing some of these links and maybe something will help -

Here's a follow-up.
A pdf from EPSON for the specifications to download.

Looks like Nozzle check is done using the printer control, not the software....I think.....see page 8.

I had looked at the first two links, but didn't see that third one. It's weird that that info wasn't in the manual that I received. I appreciate it, I followed the instructions and after alternating a nozzle check and cleaning 4 times I now have a perfectly functional Epson 7600....that I scored for $300! SWEET!
Now just gotta get this driver issue figured out.
Thanks for the help!
