I'm trying to get under it with paper towel to absorb cleaning solution I'll be pushing through the system. I found a suggestion for a similar model of holding the cancel button but that didnt work. Any ideas? I know printers move the printhead our of their seats but I don't know why and how to invoke this.
How to get printhead to move out into open MFC-240C

Have you found out how?
I think so. Someone suggested just turning it off then on then timing it while the carriage is moving out take out the plug, which sounds like it would work. Just haven't gotten to it yet. Sounds about right no?

@bencowles Yes. Turning the machine on unparks printer head and you can move it after disconnecting machine from power.
I am to lubricate the bar that printhead rests on because of squeaking noises machine makes when printing and clean the ink feeding system with cleaning solution.
Which cleaning solution are you using?

@bencowles I saw cleaning solutions are sold together with syringe, tubes and adapters specifically for cleaning printer. I bought relatively cheap one from chinese website. Don't know about rubbing alcohol. I saw isopropyl alcohol was suggested.
"rubbing" is the same as isopropyl. As far as I know at least. It's what I call "isopropyl alcohol"
