Only one not recommended, although working for me.
Found a ten year old HP 6600 on the streets. Because I had no printer
since decades I basically wanted to see how printers work on Linux today.
Got a "print head jammed" error too. Wouldn't move at all. I used a small
hammer and hit it several times to no avail. Thinking this will be a
total loss I hammered it harder. To my surprise that solved the
problem. And that the ink cartridges were more than 50% full. :-)
So, if nothing helps and you're about to write it off, apply (also
excessive) force to the print head.
