If your 7600 is on the Epson stand unlock the wheels and roll the whole printer
sideways and back and forth a few times - pretty effective - much less wear and
tear on the carts - daily printing of a purge page is also a good idea- and is
cheaper than repeated cleanings/power cleans and other ways to move ink in the
lines
