If clogged print heads are strong, and the software cleaning does not help, try to clean by using third-party tools. For this you need to extract the printhead from the printer. If you have a low budget printer in which the printheads are aligned with the ink, the operation is not difficult: perform the same sequence of actions as when replacing the empty ink tanks. If you have a more expensive printer with lots of ink (5 or more), you need a service manual, which you can request at the service center.
