Get several cotton balls and a bottle of rubbing alcohol. Turn off the printer. Soak a cotton ball, not dripping or saturated with the alcohol. Clean the paper path ( area underneath where the print cartridge carrier travels back and forth over the paper. ) This area becomes coated with ink and gets sticky, Clean the area until all ink is removed, you will use many cotton balls, continue until clean. Check the carrier parked area. You will note 2 rubber boots, 1 for each ink cartridge, make certain they are clean as well. They seal the cartridges so they don't dry out.
