• OfficeJet pro 8500: print heads and things

  OK, maybe it's a bit confusing. I have three printers Officejet 8500. No. 1 went into a never-ending cycle of clean print heads (after more than 30,000 pages) and without me being in the room the right side of the printer depot of ink on the table. Tried the reset but not good. Bought a second hand and after a few weeks, it came in paper jam mode. Could not resolve so finally bought number three. Works a treat and has no problem. Numbers one and two are for recycling. Print heads removed and stored in an airtight box with damp cloth. What is staging. Now after spending all that money, the last thing I want, it's having problems with number three. However, I have three cartridge sets new and unopened from PC World (their own brand) which cost £39. They came with the number two of the machine. They are not dated and has no way to know at what age they are. They are not oem, I can't any advice on their likely performance, but what worries me, is can the ink begins to solidify and block print heads as they age? Like I said they are still sealed. If I change the cartridge and use a spare set of the print heads to check the print output and that something is wrong if I can swap cartridges and print heads back without the printer enter the cycle of constant head cleaning. I know there have been issues with these printers but mine is on 27 000 pages and all tests are reports back in good health. I have also several chips of HP cartridges genuine that I can use.  Sorry as that a little long-winded.

  Hello @notahappybunny,

  Welcome to the forums of HP.

  I understand that you have some questions and concerns about your ink cartridges non OEM 8500 and some.

  I would like to help.

  The following document explains on the expiry of the ink.

  Consumable inkjet HP - ink Expiration

  From what I've read, it's I think I understand that the ink may change over time.

  Because ink is sealed I don't think they're going to solidify, but the pigment used in the ink may eventually separate from water. This will certainly cause print quality problems.

  In addition, your first 8500 printhead might not be good.

  A bad print head may cause the impression of entering the cycle without end cleaning.

  I hope that I have answered your question.

• print head problem Officejet 8500 has

  Hello

  I just replaced all my ink cartridges, and still it tells me that there is a printhead problem; the message says to replace the printhead to resume printing.

  Didn't I do it when I changed the ink cartridges?  Visual instructions on the printer seems to show a slightly different model of what I, and the print head seems to be separate.  It does not have to be the case in my model.  Anyway, the instructions also say press the button 'change print head' in the main menu, I can not even to the main menu but it is stuck on the message "print head problem".

  I'd appreciate some advice on how to proceed!

  Thanks in advance!

• How to determine if your print head is still under warranty.

  The type of print head you have will determine the type of warranty on it.  Only removable heads have a separate warranty from the printer, and not all printers have a print head.  Some printers print heads are part of the ink cartridge.  These printers are easy to identify because they use the black cartridges and colors, such as the printers of envy and the Officejet 4500 series.

  Printers with print heads have a separate for each color cartridge.  The print head can be removed either a lever on the right side of the cart (for printers where the ink lies on the transport, such as the Photosmart C310a), or by leaving the carriage will move to the left side of the printer and raise the tab that contains the print heads in (for printers where the ink is distinct from the transport such as the Officejet Pro 8500 A909a).  Once you know if the print head can be removed, go ahead and remove it.  Once this is done, follow the link below to find out if your print head is still under warranty or not.

• Problem with the HP Officejet Pro 8500 printer: clean the print heads each time it is turned on

  Hello everyone,

  the printer HP all-in-one Officejet Pro 8500 (A909a - product n. CB022A) clean the print heads whenever I turn it on. This problem affects any HP Officejet Pro 8500 printer, it is not a problem only of this one I bought. It is a boring bug and annoying because each power clean print heads on involves two bad disadvantages:

  1. waste of ink (each heads cleaning process consumes little ink);
  2. too much time (2-3 minutes) to prepare the printer after plugging.

  I upgraded my printer with the latest firmware available on the HP site (firmware ver. DLM1FN1006BR), but the bug is still present.

  At this point, I ask:

  1. There is a way (or procedure) to disable automatic cleaning this useless to all power on?
  2. Can we communicate with the HP engineers or tell me how to contact directly one of them to indicate the bug and request a new firmware updated?

  Please don't tell me to leave the printer on all the time or that the printheads to each cleaning power is normal behavior! Where then are power and ink savings claimed for this printer model?

  I hope that a solution to this problem. Thanks in advance to everyone will help me!

  Maintenance when the printer is turned on is normal and is required to keep the printheads in good health (not blocked). See here for more information.

  With respect to energy savings, the printer automatically goes to low power mode when the don't feel not for awhile.  It is not necessary turn the unit on to save energy.

• DesignJet 5500: print head print test very good page, but I still get the error message to replace the printhead

  On my DesignJet 5500, I rswitched the ink tubes, printheads and printhead cleaners dyeing anti-UV, 81 to 83.

  I got an error message saying that the black print head needed to be replaced so I bought another head black printing and after that, I was able to print a test page that shows all the colors (image quality page?).

  Magenta not give not any code of error before, but now I get an error message saying that the printhead magenta must be replaced, even if magenta print well on the printed test page.

  Hello

  The printer give you a warning when the health of the print head is low, but it will continue to print.

  If the problem has been solved after all print head replacement can be that a print head cause others to fail

  Or, just a few bad print heads

• 7520 new stuck in the installation phase. Print head move load ink cartridges

  I'm stuck in the new phase of printer configuration. After running through the commissioning of questions and I opened the cover to charge the ink cartridges and the print head did not move. I ran across several reset process... Unplug the printer. Wait 60 seconds and plug it in again. Browse the configuration... Unplug the printer... more.

  This printer does not seem to be any cartriages.

  Hey JohnTT,

  Sometimes, these printers come with packaging that holds the printhead completely to the right at the gas station.  This avoids damage to the product during shipping.  You see all plastic parts orange that it may contain in place or Blue Ribbon?

  So, have you tried the carriage to the right hand?  Can it be moved or is it blocked?

  If the printer still will not release the print carriage after the power cycles and move it by hand, then I suggest you return the product and return to the retailer of purchase or by calling the HP Technical Support to see about a replacement.  The phone number for the USA / Canada residents is 1-800-474-6836.  If you are not in this region, click here.

  I hope this helps.

• Photosmart Pro B9180 'Replace due to defective print head' WARNING

  My B9180 gave me the msg "replace the defective print head" after a period of inactivity.  I'm using Snow Leopard on a Mac Pro 10.6.8.  The printer went through several periods of non-use, since I bought it used, but almost nine.  Usually, I experience white lines in my impressions after using the printer, I've always been able to fix by cleaning of the nozzles and/or the print heads, either automatically, or manually.  The last round resulted in the warning "defective printhead" even after repeated manual cleaning.  In fact, the process to put off the printer and back, with and without unplugging it, led to 'replace' warnings for ALL the printheads several times, only 2 print heads a couple of times a moment seems to be giving me just the consistantly 'replace magenta/yellow print head.  The strip of plastic that surrounds the ink nozzles is loose to the point of current on the PH.  My printer is no longer under warranty, but before I spend money on phone support and new print heads, I want to look at other possibilities.  The book says that if the manual cleaning of the printheads does not, HP support should be contacted, suggesting that there could be other possible remedies, before you buy new print heads.   I wouldn't begin to buy new print heads to find that again, they will not work because of some other problem.  I am also concerned by the other warnings of print head, even if they did not intervene now.

  Also, opening lid for cleaning of the PH, I noticed a lot of ink accumulate in 4 coarse foam pads, each in its own little tray located inside the printer on the right side.  some of them were overflowing. / I carefully daubbed a part of the ink with q-tips, but I wonder if this condition could be or cause problems.

  Ideas?

  Finally got tired of waiting on HP.  Expected response Bob during the 'days of Forum' or whatever they called.  My problems with their goods should not have affected them too!

  FYI, I ordered a new printhead magenta/yellow, installed and still had "replace print head faulty warning."  Has released the new printhead, cleaned of some sort of clear, gelatinous * beep * of gold contacts with a q - Tip and reinstalled.  Surprisingly, printer started working.  (Took a lot of time to do her routine 'thump, bump & hum'.)  Don't know how long it will last.

  My next printer will be a Canon or an Epson!

• DesignJet 1050c more: 1050c print head cleaning

  Hi all

  I recently bought a 1050c more printer in fairly decent condition. I used to use a Roland SP540v at the office but this 1050c was home so I'm somewhat familiar with printers large format.

  His print beautifully after I replaced the timing belt, new valves of printhead on the ramasseherbe Assembly and removed all the air from the system. The only thing I noticed when I got all the covers off the coast has been the print head cleaning.

  The cleaners C, M and received this pleated filter sitting at the window near the wipers but the black does not. Is this normal? I can see what appears to be a sponge sitting at the front of the vacuum cleaner that I don't see in color.

  Refurbishable are printhead cleaning products? I only ask because it will be a unit of the House and I would try save as much as I can where I can.

  Kind regards

  Select this option.

  I just went down and checked on my 1050C cleaners and Yes, they are the same.  Also the same on the cleaners of the 5000 series, IIRC.  Foam on all colors but black without foam.

  Can you tell me where you extracted the floodgates of print head?  Also, I have a problem with the air in the lines on my 1050c and seeks to replace the system of whole tube by a refurbished.  But if I can try to solve it by simply replacing print head valves, I could even quite a bit of money.

  Thank you!

• DesignJet 1050c more: 1050c failure print head

  Hi guys,.

  So I have a 1050c that I had recently worked, there done upon arrival have air in the black line. I replaced the nozzle which leaked onto the station transport and removed all the air from the line. It worked perfectly for the last two days. Ive kept a close eye on the tube system to ensure no air flow. Last night when I tried to print, it came with printhead failure on black background.

  Now its almost certain air went up in the head after the first print test I did with the printer, I think it was the test of the palette. That's what prompted me to check the tubes in the first case.

  After I got the error last night I tripled checked the lines for all the bubbles that their absence. I also pulled the head and checked the nozzle and there certainly no air either, when I put the printhead in the unit, says its fine all it prints perfectly 3 or 4 passes and then triggers the error. If I reinstall it, it still print 4 or so passes and then triggers the error.

  Is there a chance the other than the head thing, I just want to avoid the replacement of the head to find her something else cause. I'll try and rinse the head with ink to make sure there is no air inside, could give the old head a new lease on life, but I have another head on command in any case.

  99% of the time it's a defective print head.  If the print head has got to air inside the first time you used it, then he should be replaced because there is no way to remove the air unless you can fashion a form of suction device that attaches to the side of nozzle and do enter the PIN that normally goes into the nozzle on the transport of ink.  A few years ago, I saw a device that somebody foreign did but have never seen one that was produced for the market.

• OfficeJet Pro 6230: Error Message: incompatible print heads

  The printer is not even a month and has worked perfectly, until last week when he simply stopped Mid-print page. There are no jams, no flashing lights, it just stopped printing. I turned it and turn it back on and that's when the ink lights began flashing. First there was black ink, which I changed with a new cartridge (even though I know that the configuration it was not empty). Then each colored ink lights began flashing. I replaced all four cartridges with the new HP ink and the Scan doctor says that the print heads are alternately missing, damaged or incompatible. The message passes whenever I check. I am at a loss and impossible even to contact someone to get this repaired thing (because it is still under warranty).

  None of the troubleshooting techniques worked. I had all the tried before they have been suggested, so I ended up contact HP and receiving a replacement printer. We'll see how it goes.
