    Ran into a bit problem trying to print my own photograph. hope somebody here and help me out.
    I tried to print a Photo of my own which is mostly B/W with selected area in red. On my Epson SP1400. Some how print a hint of green in some black colour area. Even after i desaturated the heck out of that area.
    The original colour space of the photo is in sRGB IEC 61966-2.1. I converted it to Epson 1400 1410 UPGP in photoshop because that's the colour profile of the paper suggested by the printer. Then use the Print Menu I let photoshop manage colour. Printing with Epson 1400 1410 UPGP as the printer profile. Paper as Ultra Premium Photo Paper Glossy.

    Is there any mistake with my process? or is it just the printer?

    "I would try the following: get a pan and put 1/2" of very hot (not boiling) water in the bottom. Next remove all the ink cartridges, then remove the printhead assembly. Gently put the printhead nozzles down in the water and let it soak for five minutes. Remove the printhead from the water and gently dry the electrical contacts. Put the printhead back in the printer and then reinstall the ink cartridges."
