I am not sure if this is the correct form or not . If not Mods please move it to the correct one.
I just had a friend bring over a Cannon Pixma Pro 9000 mark II. Said that is was working when he last used it and that if I wanted it it was mine. He is (his wife) house cleaning and he has the printer from his photo lab at his house( he down sized and moved to his house to save overhead). So he has no need for this one any longer. He also said that the photo paper for it would be brought by later.
Now the question. I assume I may need to clean the heads/ nozzles, and it takes a lot of ink cartridges. 8, I think. What would be the best way to clean the nozzles and is it a printer worth the investment in all the ink. He has been doing my printing for the last several years thru his business and home. I believe some of my earlier prints are from this machine.
