Epson says: print regularly to avoid clogs. But who remembers? After every long business trip, I always return to find my Epson color inkjet printer clogged. The only option is to run the built-in cleaning program, which consumes a lot of ink β€” more ink goes into cleaning than actual printing. Living in Beijing probably doesn’t help β€” it's very dry here. Epson recommends printing regularly to keep the ink flowing, but I always forget. After my last trip to Italy, the printhead was clogged again. That was the final straw. I decided to solve the problem once and for all. With help from ChatGPT, I wrote a macOS utility called NozzleClogFree. It automatically prints a small test page at scheduled intervals to prevent nozzle clogging. I just came back from another trip to Germany β€” this time, the printer worked perfectly. No clogs, no wasted ink. Hopefully, it can save you the same trouble.
