1) (After you have unplugged your cartridge, ) try not leaving the printer 
   on all the time.  When the printer powers up, it will run a test "squirt"
   of the jet onto the blotter at the far left of the carriage.  Mine works 
   great in the morning, but by mid-afternoon, it needs a half a line to 
   clear up.

2) To unclog your jet.  
   a) remove it.
   b) using a blunt object, push on the back of the ink bladder until ink flows
      from all the openings in the front.
   c) wipe ink from the front
   d) replace cartridge.
   e) go wash your hands.

Hope this helps
