Just print one page, any page, even text, every week and you will not have this problem. Epson printers are prone to clogging, and if the heads get clogged, just buy a new printer, irs more cost effective. The ink that generally gives the most issues is yellow. I have tried, in the dim past, two third party ink systems, MIS and Cone, and both create even more problems with awful to negligible service support, so I decided to stick to Epson inks, at least I am guaranteed service support!
