I just read the request about how to store a Canon printer. Well my
Canon printer had been sitting idle for about 2 years.

I replaced the inks but it was no use because apparently the print head
was totally clogged up with dried ink. Just as I was about to trash
it... my friend suggested I try an inkjet cleaning kit, like the one he
had bought on 'Ebay' (http://tinyurl.com/27lrd5) to unclog his Epson
printer. A bit sceptical at first, I bought a 'Magic Kit'
(http://tinyurl.com/27lrd5).

They gave me a link to download a manual after ordering. Although it
did not have my exact model, it did have lots of color photos, so even a
dummy like me could use it! When the kit finally arrived... 2 weeks
later! I was all set
to go and it came with 4 items. I warmed the Magic bottle in the
microwave, (my wife was happy because it did not blow up and no smells)
Then I injected the warmed Magic stuff through both ends of the print
head with a special rubber tipped -Magic Applicator-. I then left the
printhead soaking overnight on a -Magic Pillow- which are easy to use.

Next morning I inserted the inks and used the -Ink Priming Pump- to
draw the ink down after unclogging, its easy to use and because you can
see the ink flowing... you know the ink clog has been unblocked and
saves wasting your ink. I then installed the print head and inks. It
printed 1st time ! That 'Magic Inkjet Flush'
(http://tinyurl.com/27lrd5) stuff worked brilliant !!!

So if anyone else has an ink clog? here's the link to my frends
