Abstract

The invention relates to a method of cleaning ink-jet printers by the user himself, i.e. without disconnecting the printer from the computer for transportation to a specialist maintenance provider, as well as to special cartridges for this cleaning. It is characterized by the use of either old used cartridges filled with ink solvent and installed in the ink cartridge holders or by the manufacture of solvent filled cartridges or by the manufacture of double cartridges, fitted with a small space for the ink and a small space for the solvent.Then, the printer receives the command to perform cleaning of the heads. Then, an image is printed with the said solvent and the printing procedure is repeated (printing the same image) several times; each time the printout quality improves, until it becomes perfect.
