    Scrape it out with a small dental pick. If you can get the nozzle of a caned air can to it you can hold the can upside down and spray. The propellant will come out of the can and it is a cold liquid that should freeze the come making it easier to chip out. Remember this will also freeze any plastic parts in the printer and this could make them easier to break be careful.
