Cleaning Your Inkjet Printer
If you are planning on doing this to your inkjet printer because it's printing badly think again...
When your inkjet printer isn’t printing correctly, it could be because there are dried up inks clogging the cartridge, heads are dirty or the rollers are covered in ink. It’s vital these get cleaned or your print jobs won’t come out as expected.
One problem you may run into is the ideal liquid solution to clean with. You don’t want to use an abrasive or you will ruin your printer and cartridge. Good solvents will make short work of dried inks, and won’t harm the plastic casings of printer and cartridges.
Bathroom cleaners can be a good cleaning solution. They are easily accessible (since you keep them in your cupboard for cleaning the bathroom) and they are inexpensive. As long as they contain no sodium hydroxide and only isopropanol and propylene glycol, you should be fine. You can also just use a solution of isopropanol and propylene glycol with water, as well.
You can spray the solution on a paper towel and touch the paper towel to the print head of an old cartridge. Just make a quick wipe then run a test sheet to see if that fixed the problem.
You can also take a piece of paper, the largest size your printer will take, and spray it with the cleaner and feed it through a couple of times. This will clean off the rollers. Don’t get the paper too wet or you will be trying to get soggy pieces of paper out of your printer!
