Don't see any reason why not. I've used mineral spirits, laquer thinner in mine to clean air brushes.

Yep you can but dont buy one with a plastic surround because it wont last 5 minutes, I'll have to be careful with this one, as ive got solvent on the case, and it dosent like it.

Doesnt seem to have done much better with the head cleaning either

If it's a hopelessly clogged head, maybe try something a little more aggressive than 'head cleaner', what's its gonna hurt?

Ultrasonic cleaner

Well i was told by a tech that the ultrasonic cleaners are no good fo ra DX4 printhead, due to th enozzles being very small, they are however very good it seems for the larger xaar printheads and the like

He just recommended to give them a soak and see what happens
