Jeff,
I had the same problem with 2 Epson 600 printers (bought at same time). I finally took the one to a Epson authorized repair center. They said the problem is the print head. It needed replaced (hadn't been used very much). Cost would be at least $120. I wouldn't spend it, so dropped it off at the nearest dumpster. Then, a year later the other printer went too (same problem, diagnosis). It seems you can't let them sit very long without use. As far as trying to clean it, I don't know. Before taking it in for repair I looked at taking it apart to look at the printhead, but it was too complicated. I use HP printers now, and never have a problem. I know this doesn't help you much, but if the problem with yours is the print head, it's going to cost a bunch.
