Printer won't print?

I had a vacation a couple weeks ago, ran my cleaning cartidges thru my printer and all went fine, I loaded my ink back up Wednesday this week, so far so good, went to print a banner a few minutes ago and just a very light hint of Cyan shows up, I have did 2 power cleans and a normal clean and a couple nozzle checks, still notta, even less color now, I don't really want to call SW because it would be 2 weeks before a return call.
Anyhelp would be appreciated!

Looks like the ink is not flowing, I had a similar problem. We ended up sucking ink through the capping station on the waste bottle side with a syringe. Let it sit for a little while and all the colors came back. If you have any questions just pm me and I will send my number so you can give me a buzz.
 
I did the syringe trick on the black on got it running, but I have never did the syringe vacuum on the other waste line, does a person do it the same way as the black, I didn't know if it would"prime" all the colors or not?
Thanks!
