Re: Epson 2000P photo printer
A "fixed head" inkjet that's been left 6 months - that's going to be trouble, as the head is going to have a really bad clog. A syringe and flexible tube over the ink takeup spikes might help, as it could well be too badly blocked for self cleaning to work. Use kitchen towel under the head to soak up what does flush out.
Another approach I've seen is to use strips of kitchen towel wetted with fluid under the head, to wipe the face of the head across.

Some youtubers show 2 year junked models being revived, but it's a lottery!
