My MP-390 had been printing badly, so I took out the print head to try
to clean it. Several times. I soaked it in scalding water, and soaked
it in rubbing alcohol. It didn't get any better. After the last such
soaking, my printer refuses to recognize there are two cartridges in
the print head. It flashes the amber Alarm light, and says "PUT IN
CARTRIDGE".
Have I damaged the print head somehow with all that soaking, so that it
can't "see" the cartridges?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
