Can't you just open the front cover and push & hold the colour or black
button (depending on which head you want to clean) and hold if for about 3
seconds?  The head cleaning cycle should start for the head you've
selected.  

I don't know the codes to make it do it from the computer though...
http://www.epson.co.uk/support/manuals/select/escp.htm might have some
information if you get the .pdf files and read them.
