Thank you for explicitly telling me what buttons to push.
Wow it’s massive, have a blessed & productive day 🙏🏽🔥
After removing my printhead how to I soak it for clogs? Very good video, your directions were spot on.
Excellent! I tried not to do this unless the print head is dead and need to replace. For clog problem I will always take out the right cover (with control panel) to clean both service station and print head, because you can understand if there is something scratched the head. Just power on the printer, when head is moving out from home position you can just open the front cover at once and the head will stop there, you can then power off the machine by power button. I will suggest do not unplug the power chord as that can make sure your machine is still grounding, that can reduce the risk of static shock. All you have to do is just unplug all cables from the mainboard and then you can freely remove the cleaning station, you can use non-woven cloth with 40-50°C hot distilled water and stick on the clogged head for 30 seconds, do couple times. You can also completely clean the wipers and service station by this chance, you may find some paper wool, even hair there.
Super useful! Thanks!!!❤️❤️❤️
You are so welcome
Maybe this might help someone through the first steps:
I was struggling to release the print head with the button combination on my P7000 epson. I didn’t get the maintenance menu but other kind of options.
I fugured that If I just turn the power off, turn it on again, wait and look through the plastic till the head moves and pull the plug at the right moment I can release the printhead too!
Great printer!
there are 3 screws in the ink selector. inside 3 of the 4 squares. if you take those out.. the 3 screws in the printhead will be more accessible.
Thanks great tip
Wowsa!! You’re good, lady printer! Tech ladies are awesome. We can be our own technicians if we work together. I have the 9880 and this helped me so much this morning. Plugging away at it….or rather….unplugging. lol
My machine Epson p6000 not colour llk. Print...
Hey! I just followed your tutorial on my Epson 7900, I really appreciate your advice - im sure this is completely my fault but after putting everything back together I got error code 1138, any idea how to fix that?
Turn the printer off and unplug for 15 minutes. See if you still have that error. I think it could be a over current issue .. can happen if anything is wet. Also could be the carriage stuck, or the print head leads are placed crooked. Try those. But I normally start with turning thr printer off and unplugging for a while. Let me know
Did it work?
I saw you mentioned- that you have a cleaner to use for cleaning clogged 9890 nozzles. I looked in your store- is it the eco solvent? . I’m using traditional inks in my 9890.
Thanks, led
Hello my eco solvent cleaner is not for traditional inks.. sorry
Hi how do you do whit the ink; put black on grey or have sublimation ink Gray an llg??
Trying to follow this for the Epson p9000, but I’m not seeing „wiper exchange“ in the maintenance mode. Is there another way to make the printed move freely?
Read the comment below by @ericwong432, I haven't tried his method but it sounds like it will work
Hi I had a question? After cleaning and putting back the printer head how do you get ink back into the printer head? Do you need to perform head cleaning? Or other option? So that ink gets back into the head. For nozzle Chek? I print now couple I nozzle but there is no ink.
If I put a new print head there, what's the next step? Printer head is empty and no ink should I do some normal cleaning? So that ink gets into the head Or refill ink?
I would think the initial cleaning option would do the trick
How do you know if you have a dead print head?!
That's a great question . It needs a complete video. It's hard to tell the difference between a dead head and clog. If you have a persistent clog that you can't clean it may be a damaged print head. If your print head is leaking then it is delaminated and that's considered dead. Also you could be getting a printhead error message that says your printhead is dead but it can actually be that the ribbon that is connected to the printhead is bent of damaged. It takes a lot of trouble shooting. Most of the time you can recover a clogged head. I sell a solution that can bust most clogs
I've followed all your istructions, but in my epson 7890 when I took away all 7 screws i cannot lift out the black plastic part to reach the printhead to clean it. In your tutorial it seems so easy.....I don't want to force anything.
. Have you any advice ? Pardon my english.
There must be another screw somewhere. Are you sure you got all of them. The first time I took it loose it was a little difficult to remove. I am happy to look at my printer tomorrow to double check and see what it could be. I need to clean it again to cover it over to dtf
@@ladyprintboss I try to check if tre are other screws. but it seems to be a spring that doesn't allow the removing....In any case thanks for your explanations.
Is it possible to clean an epson 9700 that has regular ink in order to put aublimation ink on it? Can you clean head and dampers?
Yes you can switch to sublimation inks. Just put the new inks in and start in service man mode do an initial fill and a level C cleaning . That will purge the pigment inks a fill the lines with the sublimation inks
You are awesome! My wife and I are both following you! So I got my 9700 from our town art gallery, the green was very clogged. I couldn't get anything through that channel on the head so I let it soak for a few hours, just the bottom, and when I came back the liquid was all green! Success! All channels rained beautiful little drops. But now, I have all 11 channels blinking at me with a red x. If I take one out, I didn't want to put the green back, it shows the rest. Even the new ones I put in. But as soon as I install them all, I get 11 dead channels. I am thinking suction? Pressure? The head doesn't try to move or anything and when I have it open the doors, I don't hear it release air. Do you think it's a cable? I'm not getting an error like others so I don't think so... I am buying the service program on Ebay but also wanted to see what you think.
I tried service mode and it doesn't offer a solution that I can see. Also, it turned on, then off the first time. I had to unplug it, push the power button to discharge the capacitors, then it turned on.
It did that at the gallery when we were looking at it, but it never came back so I bought another power board and it worked fine.
I did a print test and ONE channel showed ink and it was not clean. Thank you again!
Well, I figured I would just do a power clean from maint mode and it threw me error code 1439. I took out the wiper and cleaned it, I cleaned the pad to the left, and I cleaned the 4 slits that the head parks over, plus I messed with that screw and on the side and moved the "knob" that moves the carriage up and down... I'm going to leave it open to dry and leave it unplugged while I get this program going... I figured I would clean everything while I was there, now I don't now what caused this lol.
This sounds like a bad cartridge.. 2 bad cartridge will throwcall of them off.. I am going to reread this and see if I can figure out which one
That's a cap station error that is telling you something is not seated correctly check all those connections there and make sure everything is put back properly.
I think you also may need to check that green cartridge to see if it's reading properly. So you have a chip resetter
@@ladyprintboss yes! I think you are right! I spent nearly 12 hours on this!! It may not be finding wiper blade assembly as well. I will NEVER do it "all" at once. Clean ONE thing at a time and test.
The green cart is so low it won't do anything even when I did get them to show up. Idk how people are using these printers with 4 or 5 channels empty?! 🤔 I have one on the way! I didn't want to disassemble again until I've checked everything else.
I now have the service manual AND the Epson service program as well.
Thank you for your help and responding. I'll gladly pass on the service manual and service program if you want them.
I have def have a few issues going on. Now I just need that green cart. Going the refill route after this, these carts are from 2011!
Oh and no chip reset, but I will!
Bad carts is GOOD news! Bad head is terrible news, only 544 print jobs from this machine!
@@politicalprofessor keep me posted! Great printer keep at it
help please. The paint was not filled in on time , and the color completely disappeared , how to fix it ? we did different cleansings, nothing helped
This is also what I’m going through I can’t get my magenta running on nozzle check every other color is showing perfect
I think everyone should make their own how to video collection that is recorded on phone and then upload unpublished to. Tube channel so that we scan all remember what the heck we did last time. I am going to do this now.
That is exactly why I always record myself and say exactly what I am doing so that way I remember because I have referred back to videos years later
I have a lot of air in both magenta channels (that would be a 7890, not 9890), so it seems the printer is unable to draw ink from the cartridge. Would it be possible to suck ink from the exit holes on that first cover without actually dissasembling the actual print head? If it's avoidable, I mean.
If there is air in your lines. Start up your printer in service mode and do an iniziale fill. It used alot of ink but pushed all that air through the lines and prices the cartridges by sucking the ink up to the print head. You don't need to remove your printhead for that
@@ladyprintboss Hi Latonna I have tried 3 iniziale fills but still don't have ink in the printhead. anything I can do besides int. fill??]
Did u prime the cartridges before putting thrm in the printer?
@@ladyprintboss hello I’ve primed mine also changed my vivid magenta and did a few initial fills and color cleans still not printing any suggestions?
hello from Russia
Hi 👋
When you put back on. Does printhead is working? I don't see Part 3?
Yes the printer did worked with exception to one blue channel that had a dead head.
I never got a chance to do a part 3
@@ladyprintboss I clean printhead then put back but I have problem Epson say Error A137. What I do?
@@youwierd that error is a printhead connection error. So either the print head is crooked or the cable is not connected correctly. You have to make sure you do not damage the connection that connects the printhead. You will see a gold or silver bars at the end make sure they are not damaged
Yes, I found two connection was missing. I have problem printhead can not move to left side. I got stuck on right side like inside I can not fix. How can printhead move to left side.
What type of printer are you working on?
I cleaned up the print head, then put all it back, but it lost power😭😭 do you know what happened?
Yes the lead for the power line is scratched. It's an easy fix. I am just getting up but I will show you how to fix it.
@@ladyprintboss 🙏🙏🙏appreciate for that
@@ladyprintboss which way is the best to reach you?
@@ladyprintboss hey, any update could help me solve the power problem? Will appreciate for it 🙏🙏🙏🙏
When you cleaned the printer you did have thr printer off and unplugged right? Did you pull it back in? If so I wonder if your fuse is blown. At the very back of the printer there is a fuse on the mother board next to the power cord. Remove it and check it to make sure it's not blown. If you sent have a fuse tester just buy another one it's only a couple of bucks
I have followed the instruction on my 9890 that was losing the yellow channel. All went well but after assembly, I got error 1A39. The service manual says it is due to a slant cable connection but all 4 cables are sitting straight and connectors are perfect without any damage. Reassembly didn't help. I suspect the cleaning solution leaked into the head electronics and caused a short somewhere.
Check the 2 white cables going into the printhead. There are a little gold metal pieces on that cable make sure their is no damage to those and that it is pushed in all the way. I doubt if it printhead is dead. You will get that error but it will be the cable. I just had the same thing happen to me and it was the cable. It had a small scratch
When are u posting part 3
I will post it again it did not upload correctly. Part 3 was just my second tie doing the cleaning and shows different angles. Let me try to reupload it now
I have a 9890 so I need help with
