I have had some success in submerging the print head in water for a few
minutes, then taking it out and whipping the print head on paper towel. Most
of these ink heads use water soluble ink and this seems to dissolve the
build up.

I hope someone can come up with an answer.  I have a Canon I850 printer that
has a clogged printer head.  I have run ink thru this head trying to clean
it according to the book, but no success.  Does anyone have a suggestion for
cleaning this head after removing from the printer.
