I'm not sure it has nothing to do with the low ink, that's what I'm trying to ascertain. I'm aware of Epson maintenance issues, but from what I have read, some printers do fine without being left on, and others need regular maintenance, probably due to variations in local humidity and manufacturing. My previous Epson, the 3880, could be left off for months and when turned on almost never needed unclogging. I've had my P900 for over three years and have experience few clogs after it has been left off for weeks and sometimes months. And when there was a clog, it only required one print head cleaning to fix things. Recently I've had two clogs after turning it off for only a week. The first clog required two print cleanings. The latest clog was serious. The first print nozzle check was completely white: no ink at all on paper. After four print cleanings the nozzle check still showed several clogged colors. At that point, I had four colors reading "low" so I replaced the low cartridges and that fixed the problem. I'm by no means an engineer or up on printer workings, but this seems to me pretty circumstantial evidence that the low ink readings are somehow involved in the clogs.
