Thank you for being so in-depth with your videos !! What do you suggest for print heads that are not stay raised for “ thick” paper … It is smearing all the time 😢
Did you raise the print head? There are 2 screws that hold the position on the level. one on each side of the head...they are towards the top of the print carriage
Quick question. Why would my white under base print gray. All nozzle checks and print head cleanings come out fine but when printing my under base is gray. I have the appropriate setting with my chose on 4. That you for sharing the video.😊
Usually Ink contamination, sometimes after a cleaning or when wet capping the inks can get be absorbed in different channels. Doing 1 or 2 prints in the rip should push out the dirty ink.
Your CISS set-up appears to be different than your other CISS videos in that the ink lines are running along the back. Is there an updated video for this set-up? And did you completely remove the ink lines from the tanks, or just cut the lines to remove them along with the travel lock?
I just converted this new printer 8550 and the black will not print, but it seemed to print the black when I do the nozzle check. Should I follow the step above?
In your Ciss system setup video i see you ran the lines under neath the ink colors did you just switch the lines straight to the print head from the ciss system if that makes any sense
It may take a few times, I recommend using a stronger DTF cleaner, that is made to break down and dissolve DTF ink residue inside the printer & Printhead. aaprintsupplyco.com/products/color-max-cleaning-solution-1kg?ref=hangrymuscle
@@HangryMuscle I went back and noticed that because I removed all of the parts that there was a gap where the screw wasn’t seated all the way down so I torqued them down so that they were seated flush with the plastic and it’s working now.
I took out my dampers and cleaned them all, but after a run a powerclean, none of the ink is going into any of my dampers, any suggestions? I pull ink through each of the tubes to check if there’s a clogs in my hoses but everything is good, just can’t get the ink back into my dampers for some reason..
@@breegarcia9649yes! And everything was back to working normally again, before that though, I took out everything and clean it thoroughly, even my printhead, dissemble everything and clean clean clean, let it sit for a day to dry, and then put everything back together, and then suck the ink through the waste hose
Make sure the dampers and everything is connected properly and when you clean the printer it may take a while for the dried DTF ink causing clogs to breakdown inside the printhead. Are you seeing the all the colors on the paper towel?
@@HangryMusclethe video only shows the tanks being cleaned and the top of the print head. What about the rest of the lower parts? Do they need service like this somehow?
There is no need to remove the fucking printhead because "wetcapping" breaks down the ink residue in and underneath the printhead. I've explained this multiple times
@@HangryMuscle I started this extra cleaning because my whites weren’t printing at all so I did everything in the vid but neither of my whites are working still
Just an update, turns out my white lines coagulated, or solidified inside of the cis line coming from the exterior tank. No idea how that happens but I’ve ordered a new cis system and I’ve connected my lines directly to the print head tanks from the cis. Hopefully that will be the fix. Hope this helps someone in the future.
Do you need to let the dampers dry completely?
I normally remove the water from dampers before I put them back in

So my printer has sat for a couple months!! Should I buy the CISS system and start from there? Or try this method first!! Please HELP

I would double check your rip setting are correct.
What cleaning solution u use
Ammonia mainly

Can I use design space for my epson et8500 DTF converted
In your Ciss system setup video i see you ran the lines under neath the ink colors did you just switch the lines straight to the print head from the ciss system if that makes any sense
I only ask that because i purchased your CISS system !
DO YOU USE THE CISS SYSTEM BECAUSE IT HELPS WITH CLOGGING?
Yes the ciss makes it easier to swap out the ink and flush out the DTF ink residue from the printer.
Quick questions why did you stop using the external waste tank
Because it can cause issues and I do not do excessive auto printhead cleans or power cleans so my normal box takes awhile to fill up.
Does this only work with ciss
It is easier with the ciss
Can I still do these steps if I don’t have a ciss? My white is clogged
My white is clogged what did u do?
Yes, it is the same process, the removable ciss just makes it easier to maintain and swap the inks when needed.
What solutions do you use for wetcap?
Ammonia and Piezoflush mainly.
Thanks Bro💪🏿✊🏿
Link? Want you to get your commis, if possible.
Im not affiliated and ammonia can get at most stores
Appreciate the video glad I followed you
Happy to help 💪🏾
So I did all this, but my printer is not pulling ink on a power clean. None of them. Idk what else to do.
Either it is not hooked up correctly so the printer can't pull the ink or it is still clogged.
@@HangryMuscle would you suggest taking out the entire printhead and cleaning the screens? Or would the clog more than likely be in the capstation?
Hello, I followed the steps in your video and my yellow and red are still clogged. Nothing is coming out of either one

Bro seeing you up in the top left speaking as the voice over goes its making me tweek hahahaha
Hey I took off my travel lock but now it thinks it’s in travel mode with the lock on how do I bypass that?
I have mine completely removed, so i never run into this issue. Without troubleshooting I'm not sure.

How do u clean the print head once it’s removed
The printhead ""DOES NOT"" need to be removed to be cleaned, using this method.
How do I remove the transport lock?
There's 2 screws I think that remove the little assembly

You ever figure it out?
@@Luxbyinryyes! I sucked the ink through the drain waste hose, using a syringe, and everything is back to normal 😊😊
I’m having this same problem and I followed all of his steps, you just sucked out the ink from the waste tank hose ?
@@breegarcia9649yes! And everything was back to working normally again, before that though, I took out everything and clean it thoroughly, even my printhead, dissemble everything and clean clean clean, let it sit for a day to dry, and then put everything back together, and then suck the ink through the waste hose
