<p>Philippe,<br> Thank you very much for the info on the details of what was wrong. I could not come up with that when I was researching the problem earlier so just got a new printer. Next time if it happens I will take it in for repair.</p> <p>Thanks again,<br> Jon</p>

<p>About a month ago I posted a question about head clogging on the 3880 and trying a few of the suggestions resolved that issue. That problem finally cleared up after about 7 head cleanings with a power cleaning as well. Right after that black ink began to come out in blobs ruining the print and then the head clogged again. Multiple cleanings later I got it to run but now with almost every print job large amounts of black ink get smeared on the prints sporadically. So the question is whether that type of problem is worth the repair cost. I cannot find any info in a web search of this problem and while I have given up and ordered a new one I might fix this one as a back up if that is a reasonable thing to do. Thanks for any comments you would like to share.</p> <p> <img src="../photo/16657412" alt="" /></p><div></div>
