The clog issue happens way more often with printers than it should. Would love it if the printer companies actually added a cleaning solution tank and clean the heads for you instead of wasting a bunch of ink; but, we know that would impact re-sales. Anyway, it is much more of an issue with EcoTanks because you aren't swapping cartridges. This is very helpful and I will be printing pages more often to avoid the clogs, but use this when I forget. NOTE: My only issue with your steps is having people run a power clean at the end. Instead, I would do a nozzle check because a power clean will fill up the maintenance box with ink and eventually that would have to be replaced. Running some ink purge sheets (Pages or images that just have the 4 ink colors in stripes or a full sheet of color) through multiple times would be better to clear out any excess air and then get the ink flowing through the heads instead of wasting a bunch of ink with a power clean.

It is true that our cleaning uses more ink however, it is the quickest way to get back to printing normally again. As ink is able to fill the system much quicker actually when you do a nozzle check or a nozzle cleaning it's the same process just in a smaller dose so if you have to do multiple nozzle cleanings, you may end up with the same amount of ink being used. Rather than using the power cleaning twice at the most, and having instant results.
@jackkraken38886 ай бұрын
Excellent point that print flush is probably something to avoid as much as possible so we don't end up soaking the maintenance box and needing to replace it sooner rather than later.! Once the maintenance box with is often little more than a little container with a sponge inside gets full you have to replace it otherwise the printer will refuse to work and even with the bypass that is sometimes available it could theoretically cause the the excess ink to spill inside the printer!

To EASILY unlatch that "lid holder upper thingee": 1. lift your control panel up completely. 2. lower or completely remove the black plastic panel directly under the lifted control panel. 3. open the printer lid the least amount that allows you to get your fingers on that latch. 4. lower the lid and latch straight down as far as possible while continuing to hold onto the latch. 5. Push the lowest portion of the latch you are touching, straight back towards the back of the printer. This allows the small protruding "knobs" on the bottom sides of the latch, to clear the plastic housing that holds it in. (I forgot to look to see if there is a "knob" on each side at the bottom of the latch or just on the left side, but this works either way). 6. After you push the latch to the rear and it clears that housing, continue to hold it back as you lift the printer lid. The latch is spring hinged, so you must hold it back to keep it from going back into place and re-latching inside the housing. To replace, just hold the latch behind the housing, bring the lid down as far as possible and push the bottom of the latch forward toward the front of the printer. Lift up slightly on the lid.

Oh wow, I should've read this before I began. How many times do we have to do this cleaning process? Is this a yearly thing with these epson printers? I didn't know I was buying such a high maintenance printer. The liquid cleaner was also very hard to squeeze through the tube for all the colors. I even pushed too hard at one point and exploded all the liquid all over inside, so hopefully it didn't ruin anything.

I tried this on my Epson ET - 2800 which wasn't printing magenta or cyan. Now it is barely printing yellow and black is right out. Went to Settings, ran the nozzle scrub program (1/9 under settings). It started to improve after 2-3 rounds. Magenta worked, if not black. Went to a 110 weight piece of paper that would press a little more against the nozzles and it is up to 75% working.

The hinges that attach the scanner to the main body just have to move a quarter inch and they disconnect yanking the two scanner cables loose . To prevent this tape the rear corners to prevent sideways movements and the hinges won't come loose. To release the catch for the scanner apply gentle pressure to the lower section below the spring and lower the scanner until you feel the catch snap out of it's track holding it to the rear raise the scanner.

The nozzle check after the deep clean was PERFECT! This is great because I had absolutely NO black printing, and the colors were very broken. I had cleaned until the fluids ran clear and it was a great thing. So if this un-mechanical person can get this one with the success I experienced, anyone can.

So once you see that the cleaning has worked with the kit one time for the most part, you really don't need to use it again. Well you can do now is do deep cleanings, and once you start to print normally and a regular basis, you can pull away from doing those, but you'll have to do several deep cleanings and maybe even another power cleaning in this process.

For the less frequent printing home, in your opinion would saturating a papertowel with cleaning solution, after printing, and then moving the printhead over the top of the papertowel to rinse away the ink, be a more effective method to keep the ink from clogging, rather than having to pump solution through from the top of color inlets when they get real bad? It seems like taking the time to do it after printing would be less tediuos and use up less solution and ink.
@BestPrinters2 ай бұрын
Unfortunately, that would not be a good option because overtime you could have a carriage problem by having that paper towel under the carriage. To make sure that this doesn't happen is simply printing on a weekly basis even if it's just a test print, that'll keep the ink flowing through the print and stop it from drying.
@adamberkey88802 ай бұрын
I wouldn’t expect that anybody would leave the paper towel under the carriage after cleaning the printhead. But I would expect that the ink in the printhead would not be wasted when the problem is dried ink on the surface of it. By cleaning the surface of the printhead before the ink dries and clogs at the surface of the printhead I’m suggesting wasting ink with a complete flush could be avoided.

@BestPrinters6 ай бұрын
With your specific scenario, it seems like the lines may be clogged. That is the lines that go to the printhead so in this case, what you want to do is run a power cleaning, and that should push the ink through those lines into the printhead. so this cleaning may and may not help try doing the power cleaning first and if it solves the problem and you noticed that there's ink back in those cartridges then you're good if the problem persist you may wanna continue on with this cleaning.

If you click on my channel icon and go to my channel page, then click on videos there should be a search bar where you're able to search up videos. It may be that you just need to do a upward and downward motion while installing the ink bottle and that would free up the ink so that it's able to flow into the ink tanks. If you require any additional help, please create a new comment so that I am notified.

You need to do a printhead cleaning!
@h.m.24344 ай бұрын
This printer has a head cleaning option feature (under the maintenance menu) that takes about 3 minutes to run. Does that really do anything?

Great video, covers the cleaning perfectly, but it's a semi-fail because there are no instructions for re-attaching the two, small ribbon cables that come off on a lot of first time cleaning projects. It's easy to see where these go if you look at the backside. They do require very careful reattachment, using a very steady hand, good illumination and needle nose pliers or forceps, being very careful not to pinch the cable and damage it. I strongly suggest taping the top cover of the printer to the body so it does not fall off. The blue-tipped ribbon cable only goes in a few mm, not all the way, so don't damage it by trying to push in too far. Blue side up. The bottom line, DO NOT LET THE BACK OF THE COVER COME OFF!

I have Ecotank 2710 and it had some problems with printing colours. I bought the kit on Amazon and I did the procedure. The printer does not print any colours at all anymore, except for black. Any advice?

that is normal. You will need to run a power cleaning after using the cleaning kit.

Those cables disconnected on me towards the end. Where do they connect to? I can’t find that
@heatherkundzicz4638 Жыл бұрын
Get an assistant to hold the top hinged-and-ready to close at about a 45 degree angle. Then get a bright little flashlight to look in from the back corner under the top, and find the connecters for the cables on the board, and wiggle them back in. It was not easy, but it can be done. If you have "fat fingers", you may want to enlist someone with smaller hands.

Is there advice on how to reconnect the fragile white scanner cords after they have detached? My printer is now unable to function, because the scanner (which I don't use at all) is now disconnected.
