People automatically assume that they have blocked head when the nozzle check doesn't print properly, but trapped air, or air leaks can also cause these problems.
If you have an air leak, then the printer when printing, or nozzle cleaning, will just be pulling through more air rather than any ink.
One way to see if this is the case is that your carts remain full when the computer/printer are reporting they are used up from all the head cleans, or depending on your printer, the waste/maintenance tank/pad not getting fuller.
