Had exactly the same problem. The grinding was at both ends. I put a tiny dot of super glue and accelerator in the same place and gave it a quick sand with fine paper. I put a very light line of super glue on the track part at the rear end as well , so basically the the whole piece was risen up by less than 1mm but that was enough to sort the problem. Thanks for the video tutorial it worked perfectly.
You're a star - it worked like a charm! I had grinding on both ends and so I did both your fixes as I figured it would extend the printer life. If you use a more fluid epoxy like Araldite then you can leave the sliding component at an angle while drying which leaves a natural ramp shape. I hope this epoxy proves as good as yours as the ramp ages. We will see - but many thanks either way! :)
Excellent & Clear Video . Congratulation. I have exactly same issue . It is so frustrating to hear from HP Printer service personnel that this is printer problem is not repairable ,being a use & throw printer . myself doing is it bit risky , i will show the video to a local technician to attend it in presence as per Video . Thanks a Lot.
Hi :) if you watch that section of video you'll notice in the lower part of the carriage assembly two white plastic rollers held in place by a black plastic piece. There's - i think - 4 or 5 of those black pieces, and each one is held in place by clips and a spring sandwitched between it and the metal carriage frame makes it spring loaded. During disassembly one of them popped out, but it shouldn't happen as in the printer I've got in the video it was a bit more loose than usual, it should stay in place. If that happens to you though, you can just look at how the other ones are attached and replicate the same.
Hello, the bottom mechanical adjustment of my HP 5525 printer, which is adjusted according to the paper width in the paper receiving tray, if the printer is still at the 10 cm width setting immediately after printing, a strong gear straining noise is heard from the printer shortly after printing (but no wear or damage is seen on the gears) . Even while printing (mechanical paper width adjustment at the bottom), if I change it to normal A4 paper size, there is no abnormal strain. When the paper size setting is adjusted to 10 cm width, why can this excessive strain on the gears occur after printing? What does the paper width setting have to do with these gears? Is there anything I can do to fix the problem? Note: If the mechanical paper width adjustment at the bottom is according to A4 paper, this straining sound is never heard. Thank you.
Hi! :) Is the CR Encoder strip correctly in place and clean of any ink? If you manually move the carriage to the left side then power on the printer, does it move correctly to the right or it jumps really fast from one place to another? The CR Encoder strip is a plastic transparent strip that runs through the carriage from one side to the other of the printer, you can check on google for an image of it, just search for "CR Encoder Strip".
It seems clean but yes the cartridge moves quickly and if it does break free of the locking lever it slams into the right side of the printer really hard
That's tipical of a CR Encoder that is not in place, or the sensor that reads it (it's located at the rear side of the printhead) is not working. Try to remove the CR Encoder strip and install it again correctly, be sure that passes through the sensor behind the printhead. The CR Encoder Strip also has a series of black vertical lines on it, it's difficult to see at naked eye.
I have a video on how to replace the printhead on this model, I show how to remove and reinstall the CR Encoder Strip, there's the link, I hope it helps: th-cam.com/video/b_gFslJYXRI/w-d-xo.html
Hi, how about when printer can't turn on? tried to bring it to computer service they said the board needs to replace but i dont believe because i just used it the day before i bring to shop .. what i did is after i made factory reset it never turns on.. thanks i hope you notice this message.
Hi, great video, I have an HP Deskjet that used the 2 cartridges black and tri color my printer makes some banging nosies like if the carriers is too speed up that it bangs on the sides of the printer do you have an idea of what it might be causing this? I appriciate if you would help me.
Wow, the best fix solution for HP 3520/5520/6510 models! This machine has another problem that cannot pickup paper and has wired sound (gears?) during print head cleaning on the left side. I don't know about it if you have any ideas? Thank you.
Ho esattamente lo stesso problema. Ma volendo comprare quel carrellino di alloggiamento testina, dove posso trovarlo? Come posso cercarlo? Grazie per l'aiuto ;)
Ciao! Sono introvabili, non li vendono, e infatti l'impossibilità di comprare ricambi è uno dei motivi per cui non posso consigliare HP per gli acquisti di nuove stampanti. Se fosse stato possibile ordinare il ricambio mi sarei evitato con piacere 2 ore di lavoro con la resina epossidica e tutto il resto XD
Hi! That's probably the CR Encoder Strip not in place correctly, or dirty. Check if the CR Encoder strip is in place, passes through the black sensor behind the printhead, and it's not stained with ink.
Yes, because it usually doesn't happen, that plastic clip that holds the rollers and spring assembly was more loose than normal :/ also every one of those black assemblies is fixed exactly the same, so it's easy to look at the others and get it back into place like the other ones, that's why I didn't mention it :)
Salve, le volevo chiedere un'informazione. Nel video della pulizia delle testine di stampa Canon, bisogna usare il Quasar Vetri formula originale CON ALCOL o CON AMMONIACA? La ringrazio in anticipo. Saluti, Nicola.
Buonasera Nicola! Il Quasar Vetri formula originale non è né quello con alcool né quello con ammoniaca, c'è scritto solo "Quasar vetri". Se non lo trova cerchi quello con ammoniaca.
@@PaoloMarcelliPutroppo non ho trovato il Quasar "Originale". Ho comprato il Quasar con AMMONIACA, non ci sono problemi giusto? La ringrazio tanto per avermi risposto. Saluti, Nicola.
@@PaoloMarcelli Vero ma nel mio caso era inceppata la levetta sblocca testina quella che fa correre il carrello col blocco aspirazione. Per cui smontando, pulendo con acqua ed ammoniaca tiepidi con molta prudenza e tanta pazienza, rimontando il tutto e facendo allineare alla macchina il tutto adesso stampa PERFETTAMENTE. Vabbè nuova esperienza se girando la rotella non si sblocca leverino bloccato causa sporco eccessivo una delle cause possibili.

Unfortunately HP is one of the worst companies abour repair :/
Very Instructive video, I did notice a small loose spring in the video just when you remove the carriage assembley, where does that go?

One of the best repair videos I have ever viewed. Excellente...bravo! Fixed my rear movement problem. Peter.
Thank you so much for your comment Peter, good job!
Thank you for all the info however I keep getting a clear cartridge jam error because it seems to get hung up on the locking lever. Any ideas?

j'ai même problème
It's work thank you so much. Very Very useful and helpful 👍 👌
Excelente vídeo com muita informação e obrigado por partilhar seus conhecimentos.
GREAT VIDEO - I just used it to repair my own printer.

Hi! The CR Encoder strip is stained with ink/something or is mounted incorrectly, what model of printer is it?
@@PaoloMarcelli the printer is a Desk jet Ink Advantage 2775
Wow, the best fix solution for HP 3520/5520/6510 models!
This machine has another problem that cannot pickup paper and has wired sound (gears?) during print head cleaning on the left side.
I don't know about it if you have any ideas? Thank you.
Hi! Could you please send me a video of the defect via email, or post a link here? :)
@@PaoloMarcelli i found the 'left gear sets' has damaged and cannot pickup paper.
@@meitetsusai3787 I have a video on that!
@@PaoloMarcelli wow, i hope to watch that soon. ^^
The grinding noise is gone but when I try to print, black ink is not working. My cartridge inks are still full.
Ho esattamente lo stesso problema. Ma volendo comprare quel carrellino di alloggiamento testina, dove posso trovarlo? Come posso cercarlo? Grazie per l'aiuto ;)

I'm getting a Carriage Jam error but without any grinding. The Carriage is slamming around sort of forcefully, knocking around , and not as smooth.
Hi! That's probably the CR Encoder Strip not in place correctly, or dirty. Check if the CR Encoder strip is in place, passes through the black sensor behind the printhead, and it's not stained with ink.
At 8:35 a spring falls out, then disappears without mention. ???
Yes, because it usually doesn't happen, that plastic clip that holds the rollers and spring assembly was more loose than normal :/ also every one of those black assemblies is fixed exactly the same, so it's easy to look at the others and get it back into place like the other ones, that's why I didn't mention it :)
Great video!!! My photosmart works perfectly aga!n!!!
May the drum causes the same noise if it's damaged ??
Hi! What do you mean by the drum? The drum is a component only present in laser printers, this is an InkJet so it doesn't have a drum.

NON FUNZIONA POTETE FAR GIRARE QUANTO VI PARE MA IL CARRELLO NON SI SBLOCCA!
Nel video ho chiaramente mostrato che funziona, se nel tuo caso non hai risolto non posso farci molto, vedi se non c'è un problema diverso.
