These directions were perfect! My magenta hadn't been working right for months and the cyan kept missing lines after performing the head cleaning and running a nozzle check. Using this product and following the directions in the video worked like a charm! Just make sure you do the power cleaning after cleaning the printer heads with the cleaning solution and run another nozzle check to ensure everything is printing properly.
Im having the same problems with magenta and cyan! Im going to try this!
Awesome! Yes it is important after using the cleaning kit, geni.us/wArXsZT , too run a power cleaning so that the ink is pushed into the system.
Mine just started with the magenta so I’m going to try this as well.
These directions are so clear and simple to follow. After: 3 nozzle checks, 2 print-head cleanings, and 1 power cleaning --- my printer works again. Thank you so much for filming such clear instructions and for selling a reliable cleaning kit product.
Great to hear!
This worked perfectly! My printer was basically printing blank pages. After using the kit, then doing 2 nozzle cleanings, and 1 power cleaning it worked. I was going to give up after nozzle cleanings but the power cleaning made the big difference. Thank you.
Thank you! This was very thorough and easy to watch. Others I’ve watched gave too much info. You were straight to the point. Ordering my kit today and I’m hoping this work.
Awesome and thanks for subscribing!
Thank-goodness for you and CZcams!! I tried other suggestions prior to buying the Printhead Cleaning Kit and Power Cleaning (which many said not to do). NOTHING worked until I did BOTH the Printhead Cleaning AND the POWER CLEANING! Everything is back to normal!! THANK YOU SO MUCH for your video!!
You are so welcome!!!!
Same here. I was hitting a brick wall until using both to clear a blockage in the Black nozzle and Power Cleaning my way back to clear print.
I was getting white vertical lines through some of my text and followed Janice Carter's suggestion of a power cleaning. It worked! Thank you Janice. Good video.
Sorry I wasn’t able to get to you message. Please create a new comment with the same question if you still need a response. Thank you!
This worked for me and I was happy with the purchase rather than buying a new printer at $300. I put in some suggestions for some things I learned and put them in my Amazon review for the product.
Awesome, thank you!
I followed your tutorial to the T. It was informative and precise. When I was finished, I ran a head cleaning and nozzle check and my magenta lines were still missing. I read the comments down below and learned about Power Cleaning. So I did that. I'm not sure if it was the Power Cleaning that brought back the magenta lines or a combination of both methods, but I got all my colors back.
Great job!
Worked perfectly, this is the second time in about a year that I used your cleaning kit. Thanks!
Glad to hear it worked for you!
I did this and I made 200 copies and my black ink isn't coming out
@@duanewilson3390 There was another suggestion to turn the printer off when not using it. Helps to keep from drying the ink out. After I used the kit and started turning the printer off...have had the best results doing that.
2nd time?! I hope this doesn’t become a regular occurrence.
Purchased your Cleaning Kit, it worked like a dream. Don't forget to do the power cleaning. Thanks
Many many thanks for this excellent, clear and well filmed video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Consider subscribing to my channel
THANK YOU! For me it was just about the first part of the video, with interrupting the nozzle check and then placing a paper towel to collect all the excess ink! Everything is clean now, and saved me a lot of frustration😌🙏🏻
Glad it helped!
Oh thank you for the tip, so easy and much simpler!
You bet!
Finally got around to using this product on the Cyan printhead. This did the trick. In my case the ink levels were still 2/3 full. I think it might be a good idea to print in full color periodically just to keep things moving.
My color ink wells are over 1/2 full.
You just need to do a Power clean. Hold the on/off button and the "?" Button. This guy is only trying to sell his stuff while it can easily be fixed
Absolutely, I am glad it worked for you!
@@quatrax8691 Did a power clean still doesn't work
@@quatrax8691 I did 2 power cleanings in addition to at least 5 print head cleanings and my black still wouldn't work until I used this product. While there's other cleaners on the market, his kit is set up for easy & immediate use. And with Amazon Prime, you can get it delivered same day. Your negative comment is completely undeserving b/c power cleanings don't work for everyone, as per lots of other comments on here.
You say the cause of clogged nozzle is usually due to running the ink tank too low. For me that's not the case and I suspect my issue is infrequent use with ink drying in the nozzle tips. Do you agree?
This guy is just trying to sell ink and kits. Generally the head can dry out a bit or cheap ink can cause this issue as well.
Yes, my infrequent use causes the ink head to dry out, power cleaning usually works, but this may work if it doesn't.
@@JohnSmith-un9fy exactly lol 99 times out of 100 power cleaning works and even if it doesn't you can easily make your own fluid with a tiny bit of research.
@@jeremyp8501 so my et2750 doesnt have the power clean option so whats the way you guys power clean? Cause ill yake a tooth brush and some rubbing alcohol and scrub a dub lol
@@JackkBurtonn press the question mark and power button until the power cleaning option comes on
This worked for me. Thanks for the instruction video and kit links 💪🏾💪🏾
Great to hear!
4 years later and this was still very helpful!! !Thank you!!!
Great to hear!
Thank you for the tip,. I have added it to my tool kit! Cheers
So happy to hear that! Consider subscribing to my channel and leaving a 5 star review in Amazon
Great video. Can't wait to give it a try. I do have a question however. It is possible that the clog is at the supply tank into the vein as opposed to at the print head?
Great instructions. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
What if when you did your maintenance checks and literally no ink prints ? I was getting vertical lines prior and at times just blotches on the paper. Would I use the same method?
It worked for me too! Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
Thank you sooo much! I was able to fix my printer thanks to you.
Hi! Thanks for your video. I have a question; my 2760 doesn’t feed up the ink from the tank through the tube to the cartridge. I have full tank of ink but my cartridge is empty. How can I fix this issue?? Help me please
Really appreciate this... well-done video that I could follow along with. My Cyan is totally clogged!
Great to hear!
Worked like a charm! Thank you!
Glad it helped!
I had a black clip fall off when I was putting the paper towel on and was curious if you had a pic or video so I can put it back on thank you
I just ordered the cleaning kit because two of my colours are not coming out well and one not at all. I was just wondering should I fill my ink before cleaning? My ink levels are half full or more on all. I have done head cleaning and a power clean and left off for 24hrs then I did it again but still not working, hence why I ordered your cleaner. Please advise I just want to know if it would be best to fill ink first. Thanks
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP! I

Can I use the cleaning kit for sublimation printing?
After using the cleaning solution. I ran through a "power cleaning". After the power cleaning everything works well. The cleaning solution worked well but I needed that final step.
Yes I just came to the same conclusion and added it to the description. Thank you for sharing.
Help please with my epson et-2750. My cayan is printing green. I've done head
cleaning & power clean. What els can I do
That was a great video......explained well.....
Glad it helped!
@@BestPrinters The person didnt say it worked.
Worked well to me congrats 🎉
Well done!
Just purchased the cleaning kit. So thankful it's available for same day delivery via Prime. Hoping this works because my ET-2750 is only 4 years old and I've only printed 189 times with it according to the print counter. I've done a print head cleaning at least 5 times now along with 2 power cleanings but the black will still only print with a very faint outline of fonts. It won't print at all on a nozzle check or alignment. I've spent way too much time on it now so this is my final attempt at fixing it before I throw in the towel and buy a new printer, which won't be an Epson.
Best of luck, please feel free to reach out via Amazon messaging if you have any questions or concerns.
@@BestPrinters I just finished and it worked like a charm! The only nit I have is the instructions could have been a little better... such as what all the accessories are for and the best way to heat & fill the syringe (ie: heat a mug of water in microwave for 1 minute then let bottle sit in mug for a few minutes & then to fill the syringe, feed plastic tubing into bottle to suck up fluid). Fortunately I rescue squirrels so am familiar with syringe feeding & food warming, but people who aren't might have issues, especially if they're elderly. I'm very happy with the results and your video gave excellent guidance. Just gave you a 5-star rating on Amazon. Thanks so much!
Thank for that feedback! I am glad you were able to manage and get your printhead cleaned. Also thank you for the review, that really helps! Have a great day!
@@BestPrinters FYI that I just sent you a support question via Amazon regarding an issue that developed...
Perfect. Tried head cleaning and power cleaning but didn't work. My yellow was dead. Cleaned yellow, did test print and perfect. Blue had lines so did same to it....perfect. THANKS.
Awesome!
Looks good. Thanks.
You bet
When our ink supply on the ET 2750 is completely full we get an error message that warns "low ink please check ink levels." every time we print. test printing looks ok.
I ordered your kit flushed the tubes & it’s printing now with blank lines now. Some of the color is working, but not 100%. Any suggestions?
I need this and a tutorial for the Epson WP-4025, please. Thank you so much! Greetings from Germany.
worked thanks!
Glad it helped! Consider leaving a 5 star review on Amazon.
After following the first steps and taking the screw off, I then had to put it all back because it wasn't forewarned that we had to buy a kit to follow it. Might be helpful to have had this warning early on!
Ok, thank you for your feedback.
I followed all instructions as per video (twice) and it is still not printing correctly. I left it overnight and although it appears to be printing, it is extremely faint. The printer is only just over a year old but still now out of warranty, do you have any other suggestions?
Right when I needed it.
Cool!
Great Tips- easy
Nice!
How did you center the printhead? When you power off the printer, the print head automatically moves to the right hand side and the printer locks it there.
Worked for all my colors except black. There was a lot of resistance and it would not let me flush the solution. Any tips?
It did work for me. It went from not printing at all to printing perfectly well, but I had to do a power clean.
Glad to hear that!
Many ET-2750 has a software fault that prevent the operation of power cleaning ( and normal start) , I found that just tilting the printer in all directions , one after the other, up to about 60-70 degrees had an excellent cleaning effect. The printer became as good as new. Epson suggest to get the software fixed but it is too expensive my service center says.
I just used this after having dry printer heads and it worked perfectly.
I did this and I so far printed 200 pieces of paper and I still don't have any black ink coming out
Well, most recently, I’ve had printer problems and tried to clean again but can’t get the colors to print. I’m buying a new printer and not the Epson
I am so glad to hear that!
So after cleaning my printer heads using your product I went to run a nozzle check and the printer shut off in the middle of the check. Now it won't turn on at all. Have you run into this issue and would you have a solution to this problem?
Thanks!
You bet!
Hi, great video! I bought the solution and follow what you have thought. The black ink went well however I face a lot of resistance with the color inks even after flushing it twice on the yellow one, don’t have enough solution to flush twice for the other 2 colors. Ithe colors still did not come out on after nozzle check Appreciate advise. Thanks
Hi, just run power cleaning until the color returns.
Hi… thanks for posting this. I followed your tutorial and it work great except now my prints and very feint/wishy washy… like the ink has been diluted… any advice please 🙏
Repeat the process with the kit and also run a power cleaning.
Brandon
I have this printer and i have a question when I print a photo when it comes out there are white lines in the photo is there a setting for this or should I clean the way you did with the cleaner...or should I get an extra lazer printer for photos...thanks
Hey Rick, yes so try going into your settings on your computer and make sure it is set to print on photo paper. If it already is then this kit will help with the problem.
I bought the cleaner solution and I followed all instructions, the cyan is not printing at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
This usually works and has already for CM&Y but not K. I've run a couple ounces at least of isopropyl alcohol through to some paper towel underneath and it's still not printing but showing full ink on a new cartridge. Sounds like the printhead dead no? Or do I just keep going a few more rounds?
Keep on doing the cleaning a few more times and make sure you the power cleaning once you are done with the kit.
Where can I get the printer cleaning solition
Do you know how to get all the ink out??
Thank you! 👏
Your'e welcome!
Great tutorial! my only question is- once you're finished, do you run a nozzle check or do you need to clean the printer head after? Like what's the follow up afterwards? TIA
Yes you will need to run a printhead cleaning until the color returns.
@@BestPrinters ok thanks so much! Im waiting for the kit. Fingers crossed it works! 🤞
Thanks for the video.
I have a question a friend lent me this printer but I can't lower the upper door, where is the release button?
You have to push it up before it unlocks and comes down.
Hello, I've replaced the ink and cleaned the ink cartridges and printhead. I did the nozzle check, print head cleaning and power cleaning and nothing has worked. The horizontal printing isn't working well and when I print out the sheet all the segments are spaced apart none touch at all or overlap. Idk what else to try. If you can please put some input on what else i can do. Thank you.
You will need to repeat the cleaning process again and you may need to also warm up the fluid over boiling water, and reapply warmed up solution.
Hi, what should I do if I have A LOT of resistance in the black color? I continued to run the fluid through the others just fine! Thank you for your help.
Also, my towel keeps collecting black ink? But lots of resistance from the top part where I put the fluid in
Warm up the cleaning fluid before application.
I ordered one of these kits from Amazon, but sadly FedEx lost it in transit (as usual). Hopefully they find it and send it to me for my older Brother printer.
Hey man message me directly, click on Best Printers on my listing page and I will get you a replacement.
I am having issues with my et2800 printer. My black ink cartridge causing vertical stripes on the image.
Hi Best Printers,
Have you ever used this product with an Epson ET-2550-? I am able to clean printer head but not the lines.. and I may need more color ink but I have black and only need black at this time. Can you help? Thank you... or should I just save time and buy an HP jet printer? TY
SO the printhead is the only thing you really need to clean. After doing the cleaning run a power cleaning. You should have full quality once you complete those two things.
I need help on how to clean because my ink spilled all in it and inside
Will the cleaning kit work with an Epson 2720. Also my problem seems to have occurred when I overfilled the magneta and now I can only print back or pink. Any suggestions?
The cleaner should help.
Hey I got a question…I accidentally set up my brand new ET2750 I load couple of the inks and I forgot to load up the black and the yellow… but I filled them afterwards, but it doesn’t give me an options to charge the black and the yellow… eventhough I reset the ink the black and the yellow still not printing or showing… what should I do ??
In the settings there should be an option to charge the ink after set up.
Now that the cartridge is empty how long does it to draw ink from the reservoir? Right now my black and cyan are blank
it may need to go through a few manual cleaning cycles through the system before it's back to normal
i did used print head cleaning but needle still hard to press and not full yet. Looks like under hole blocks?
If you remove the plastic cartridges you can clean the nozzles directly.
Hi
I have the same Model i did not use it for 4-5 Months and now it print white papers 😢 what should I do ?
Directions were great followed them to the T. But I am now having issues with the one that I cleaned. The cartridge will not refill again. Any tips on correcting that?
Yes run a power cleaning after using the kit.
Hi! I did the steps from the video and also power-cleaned the printer. However, I noticed how all colors were used except for black while power cleaning. Does this mean there's an issue with my black ink in the ink tank? Also the inks have been there for at least 9 months, what should I do? THANK YOUU
Not necessarily, repeat the process until all the colors return though.
Hi I have followed the procedure, but after that, it works for five papers, and then it shows me fail. Error code E-01 031004 .
Do you know what that’s mean?
If you can help
Thanks! I used your kit to clean all four colors. I thought the printer was toast. A little messy though, so be sure to use latex gloves. At first the printer wouldn't print at all, but after leaving it sitting for 24 hours, the printing miraculously started to work (faintly), but two print head cleaning cycles from the Epson printer interface cleared everything up and it's all good!
Great to hear!
So after the flushing, what about the left over cleaning solution? Will it containment the rest of the ink when it starts to fill the print head chamber?
No just run a power cleaning and it will be flushed out.
UPDATE: I did a "power cleaning" and that fixed my problem. I probably didn't need to order and perform the cleaning with the Printhead Cleaning Kit.
Followed directions after ordering the cleaner. It's the magenta that is causing my problems. Ran multiple head cleaning and nozzle check after cleaning, still no magenta showing up on the nozzle check printout. Any suggestions?
Make sure Magenta is totally full and run another power cleaning.
Awesome video. Purchased the cleaning kit just ran the nozzle check and flushed the heads out. The color segments are not printing still. Only the black color. Any other suggestions?
You will need to run a power cleaning after running the kit.
:( I have an error message that I cannot bypass after I completed the cleaning kit instructions.
I was getting the colors but no black printing. I tried head cleaning and it didn't help. I tried using the kit to flush the black, and when pushing slowly on the syringe, the tube popped off and I got black ink everywhere. Any other suggestions?
You will need to warm up the solution and reapply. Gently steady pressure will eventually allow for the blockage to break and you'll be able to clean the printhead.
I cannot push the syringe down. The pressure build up in the ink tank is not allowing it. In other words I can't push any fluid through.
What do I need to do l?
Warm up the cleaning solution.
Cleaning went well. I cleaned all the four inks. Although it started to work with anemic results, as I printed, the ink almost completely disappeared. It seems that the ink is not coming to the print head. What can I do to fix this? Tks
Hermes, is correct.
At 0.18 I thought he was going to start saying "If you're having printer problems, I feel bad for you son. I've got 99 problems, but a printer ain't one"
lol
Hi, I just saw your video. A very good attempt to help people. I want to ask you if you could help me fix my printer problem please. It is printing haphazardly in portions of the page.
Hi! Yes you will need to do this cleaning.
Hello i followed step by step the instructions of flushing the printhead, when i went to do the power clean, the Printer went in error 031004. Checking with Epson site, the problem was common after flushing, the recommendation was to replace the printer head, that it is basically too expensive. What did it go wrong? Have you experienced this situation before?
i have a epson et 2750 printer using the ink that came with the printer and epson ultra premium photo paper glossy new out of the box only been using it about a month or so every time i run a print of a picture i end up with a blue line at the bottom some times blue and purple line but if i copy a photo from the scanner no problems ive tried reinstall of the drivers and software still the same problem even tried using a different computer with just the drivers tried nozzle check head cleaning power cleaning any idea what is causing this and is the link you left for ink is it good as the original in printing photos
turns out a bad wireless connection caused the problem after disconnecting the printer and reconnecting its printing pictures just right
What is in the fluid, please? Is that something we can replace ourselves?
I cleaned my rosin et 2750 and error message came up reading the 031006. Are you familiar with this
Try resetting the printer.
I have an issue in that my black ink will simply not go into the reservoir! It's been fine before, now I turn it upside down & it will not drip into the tank. I have the Epson ET-2750. Any help will be appreciated, thanks!!
Run a power cleaning.
If everything is coming out just a blue color will I need 4 kits to clear out the each color.
That's normal. You only need one kit maybe one additional if you need more solution.
Why does a power cleaning need to be done after doing the flush?
Hi there, is it normal that after doing your procedure my printer is printing blank sheets?? can you advise? Thanks!
That is very normal after doing a power cleaning it will come back to standard printing
Hoping you get this and have an Idea...Bought your solution and flushed everything. Everything flowing well and even pulled ink back into the print head cartridges. All colors are not printing at all!! It's like its not pulling the ink out of the tanks. There is ink from tank to nozzle but not to paper.....any ideas?
Now you will need to run a power cleaning. That will push the ink back into the system.
Where can I buy a extra empty cartridge for my ink. The pink cartridge nozzle broke right were the tube connects
You will have to look up the replacement part. Maybe on eBay.
I like this printer because it is economical. I don't like the fact that you have to set parameters every time you print for paper size, paper type. I am so used to that being automatic. But money savings takes precedent. :)
Thanks for sharing!
I have the Epson ET-2720 and the top glass does not lift up so I can't get to the print nozzles. All the colors stopped working. Is there any way to fix this printer?
Yes you will need to remove the screws around the glass scanner to reach the printhead.
I had filled the ink wells and then found that the colours were faint. By flushing/cleaning as per your video do i lose all the ink that was in the wells?
Yes
Have you changed your cleaning kit? I clicked on the direct link in your video and was taken to Amazon which showed Best Printers cleaning kit. I was sent a generic version with parts that clearly do not fit each other.
All the parts fit.
@Best Printers I may not have made myself clear. The kit I was sent did not say anywhere on it Best Printers. There was only one adapter that definitely did not fit the tube (it was way too small). I'm wondering if your original kit has been changed? Amazon claimed it was the correct kit. Looking back at the transaction, even though I clicked on the link provided here (it did take me to Best Printers kit) it was not Amazon or Best Printers who sent it. There was a 3rd party. I'm trying to figure out if this is supposed to be the kit you are selling or if the issue is on Amazon's side. I've ordered 2 and sent back 2. They do not resemble the kit you describe in your video or on your website.
Hey. So i did this now its not sucking any new ink from tank. What after the video how will the ink return in the cartridge head as its all flushed with clean solution
Use the power cleaning function.
