My black ink nozzle appears to be blocked on my EpsomD92 printer. I have tried all the tests and have decided to try and print in Blue instead. Is it possible?

There is no way to select just Blue Ink in the printer settings.

The printhead must be badly blocked with old, semi-dry black ink. Try removing the black ink cartridge, then put a couple of drops of plastic-safe solvent (eg alcohol-based) in the small hole at the bottom of the cradle where the black cartridge fits. Leave a few hours, put the cartridge back and try the cleaning process in the printer maintenance options again.

An alternative to using solvent is to remove all the cartridges, then remove the entire printhead if possible.
Then let it soak overnight is warm, soapy water. Next day, rinse it thoroughly then allow it to completely dry before re-fitting it.
