  • How to clean the print-head nozzles of an Epson inkjet printer using a damp cloth. No need to remove the print-head. If your Epson ink-jet printer prints with horizontal white stripes, some colors disappear, the image is partially missing, probably you have some clogged nozzles. If a normal cleaning does not solve the problem, try this method.

    Perfect solution to the problem. I waited a couple of days for everything to dry out and the printer is now working properly again. Thank you!

    Thank you! I was on the verge of buying a new printer - watched several solutions and none worked. Tried yours and then did one more nozzle clean and it cleared the blockage completely!

    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I too was on the verge of buying a new printer as mine is about 8 years old. Once through using your cleaning method got back all but the top and bottom black lines in a nozzle check test, and running the cleaning cycle on my printer got the rest.

    I think its better to use a womans thin menstral pad , it absorbs all liquids immediately and is thin enough so you can slide it under the printer head no problem.

    Hi - I work with an epson printer to print edible images at high volumes, every week there is a new issue. The current problem is it is printing codes and special characters on the paper, would a clogged print head cause this problem? What do you recommend doing?

    • @viandant5
      @viandant5  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Which problem? wrong characters on paper? For sure it could be caused by a clogged nozzle

      Try to change the paper, may be the paper is damp. Print the nozzles test, check if all nozzles are present.

    My printhead carriage is stuck all the way to the left. Printer reports paper jam. Epson Rx595. It has been stuck there for a couple of years. Do I have to disassemble? Is it worth it? I would like to use the scanner.

      It the printhead had been on the left for years the nozzles are clogged for sure. I think you should have to change the print-head for start. I think it's no more worth

    Ciao!
    Forse potrei ricevere aiuto da te per la mia Epson P900.
    Ogni settimana stampo almeno un Controllo Ugelli, o alcune stampe Fine Art A4 su carta Hahnemühle Matte.
    Ieri ho eseguito un Controllo Ugelli, tutto è perfetto, tranne il LGY (grigio) che esce con solo poche righe.
    Lo ripeto e LGY è completamente vuoto.
    Ho sostituito la cartuccia LGY con una nuova (quella precedente era quasi vuota).
    Ho ripetuto la pulizia della testina e il controllo degli ugelli alternativamente 3 volte, nessun reale progresso, stampando solo 2 linee molto piccole.
    Ho spento la stampante e ho aspettato circa 18 ore, ho anche rimosso, smosso e reinstallato la cartuccia, senza risolvere il problema.
    Non è possibile eseguire una pulizia completa (Powwer Cleaning) perché la maggior parte delle cartucce d'inchiostro sono quasi esaurite.
    Qualsiasi suggerimento è molto gradito, spero di non doverlo inviare all'Assistenza, anche perbhè la Garanzia è scaduta da un mese😔
    Grazie mille in anticipo!
    I miei saluti dalla Germania 😊

      Quindi ho stampato un disegno Fine Art, realizzato in varie tonalità di grigio, senza alcun problema, qualità perfetta.
      Tuttavia la stampa Controllo Ugelli mostra solo 8 piccole linee in LGY.
