    I don’t see a replacement print head for the 8550 on your website or the new software to install.

    Is there any software needed after installing a new printhead or should it work just like normal?

    • @dalinjimenez
      @dalinjimenez Před 8 měsíci

      Yes, you need EPSON adjustment program. Each printhead have a unique sequence number, is very important.

      Is your printer based on 1390? You cannot use the motor for L-1800.

      ​@@BCHTechnologiesI'm most curious to know the best approach to re-priming dampers and head without getting air in the head. Not sure why they designed the dampers the way they did Instead of having a spike on the manifold. I tried charging by pulling through the waste like I do on the l1800. Still not getting all colors. I feel like I'm vapor locked in some channels.

  • @queenb4king1
    @queenb4king1 Před 7 měsíci

    For the life of me I cannot get these dampers back on. I almost started crying. I cant get the little metal bar in the back slot and get the front to lock at the same time. I have already cracked one damper. Please help

  • @Sliminem04691
    @Sliminem04691 Před 11 měsíci +2

    Dont do this. Youll get ink all over the motherboard once that ink drips down the printhead.
    The better way is to remove the ink lines wile the printhead is locked on the capping station. Then suck the ink out the waste line. If you have a vacuum pump setup they will work faster.
    Once you have the ink out the cartridge. Then remove them. Youll have almost no ink to spill.
    P.s.leave the spring and clamp the ink lines so the ink wont run out. You can remove the rest as 1 piece.

      If your printhead is not waterproofed, it is crucial to extract the ink from the "damper" before removing it. You can use the "flushing syringe" tool to suck ink out. I won't suck the capping station because I don't like the direction of the ink flow. If the printhead is waterproofed, I will remove the damper without further work. While the ink typically doesn't penetrate as far as the mainboard, some cleanup is necessary.
