Have the printer head move away from the park position. Put some hot
ammonia and water mixture onto the sponge where the head normally
rests on when parked and then let the head move to park position. It
should suck up the clogged head. Some people have used Windex with
success as well.

If the printer head gets clogged real frequently, here's something to
consider:

If you're using ink refill, the ink may not be suitable for this
particular brand. Also having the printer run at least once a day
helps minimize clogging issues.

3rd party ink cart could be the issue, try a different 3rd party brand
or stick with official brand.

If you're using new ink carts and not refilled, the waste ink bin may
be too full.

If you're using CIS (continuous ink system, AKA CFS), the reservoir
may be set too low. Try raising the tank a couple inches so the ink
doesn't have to fight gravity as much.
