    Have you tried all of the usual cleaning methods / purges?

    eg. manually (maintenance) clean, head soak overnight, powerful cleans.

    what age is the machine / heads, how much use does it get, what inks…

    done all usual cleaning routines, machine has always been well maintained
    only 18 months old, these are the 2nd set of print heads on machine, roland changed the first in april!
    Just wondering if anybody has had similar problems, because these print heads cost an absolute fortune!
