Need Help Xc540 printer help needed

Hello Forum,
I am new to this printing world and just did some horse trading for a Roland XC540 printer. I am not looking to make a living with it or anything like that, just looking to start a little side hustle at some point in time. Unfortunately the previous owner had it sitting for a few months before I made the purchase and from what I have learned in a short period of time, this is what might be leading to my problem. I was hoping to pick some of your brains on what my next steps should be. I ran a few cleanings and did a couple test prints but ran out of ink. so I purchased all new inks, did three powerful cleanings and seem to be stuck at the same test results. Before I start throwing money at things I don't need or trying to find a Roland tech here in Central NY, I was hoping you could suggest some tricks of the trade to try. Thank you for your time.

Replace your captops and do an overnight head soak and a couple of powerful cleans the next day and see if it improves. Is quite likely though the heads will need replacing if it has been left unused as they will clog and it isn't normally possible to rescue them
