I've got another Printer to give away, it's an Epson Stylus Colour 880.

It comes with one colour and one black cartidge as well as a cleaning cartidge. The colour printhead appears to be blocked, a couple of cleaning cycles and runs with the cleaning cartidge didn't fix it, however I think with a bit more patience you may well get it back to 100% again.

I've also got a few Print-Rite compatible cartidges for other Epson printers available, they're as good as originals and unopened as they're from a since departed printer.

2x Epson Stylus Colour 440/640/740 (20191)
1x Epson Stylus Photo Colour Photo/Photo 700/Photo Ex (20110)
3x Epson Stylus Black 440/640/750/1200/Photo (20187)
1x Epson Stylus Black 400/500/600/Photo/700/Ex/LP100 (20093)

Chris Mapey got the last printer in exchange for some Stella and a drive in a V70R. Automotive offerings would be nice, but in the absence of that, they'll go free to a good "PH" home .

BUMP, it's still here clogging up the loft! I'm 99% that with a little patience it will work., I just don't have a need for it, even if it is working!

I had an Epson 740 that worked superbly in black, but the colour head clogged and it would miss lines periodically as a result. I ar5ed around with it for ages but never did unclog it. In the end I gave it to my mother as she's unlikely to print hi-res pics anyway.

Bought a CX5400 3-in-1 to replace it, hope that doesn't go the same way...
