Epson WorkForce WF-7620, WF-7610 and WF-7110 Printhead Replacement

Hi
In this video I'll perform a printhead replacement on an Epson WorkForce WF-7620. The procedure is the same on the WF-7110 and the WF-7610.
The entire repair process is relatively simple and can be done by anyone.
↓ Tools and things needed ↓
Phillips Screwdriver
Tweezers
Paper towels (Can be useful)
Latex Gloves
Of course, the Printhead
The printhead code is: FA13031
The printheads with part codes FA13001, FA13002 and FA13003 are OLD REVISIONS, NOT RELIABLE!!! IF SOMEONE TRIES TO SELL YOU THIS PART CODE DO NOT BUY, EVEN FOR A LOW PRICE!

[@chrisvanloot7505]

Thanks a lot. I just used your video to repair our 5 year old WF-7620 (it is a real shame it is giving up so quickly). This is saving us some money, but above all it is one big multi functional printer that at least for now does not end up on the junk yard and gets a new lease of life. The FA13031 was quite hard to find though (only one eBay vendor in Spain still had stock of new heads).

[@davidyates9275]

Nice job! I'm going to fix my dried-out 7620. No one is making an economical 11x17 printer anymore and I need to print my B-size schematics. Thanks!

[@PaoloMarcelli]

One suggestion if you clean or replace the head, instead of running cleaning cycles after, use WIC Reset to perform an ink charge, this particular function is free, it uses quite a bit of ink but it's better to prime a new printhead and purge air out of the system.

[@davidyates9275]

@@PaoloMarcelli I will try that, thanks. Just doing my first cleaning cycle now after changing the print head. Tossed the old ink carts - they were still wet but old and part of the problem, I'm sure. It sat for several years between uses and was clogged.

[@davidyates9275]

Just a follow-up: The new print head never started printing, even after running through an entire set of brand new ink cartridges during head cleaning. It cost me about $80 for the head and carts as well as hours of my time. I don't know if I'm going to try this again or dump this disappointment of a printer in the garbage. It is not like I installed it incompetently, I'm an electrical engineer with a lot of assembly and troubleshooting experience. At this point, if I could hand it off to someone and get it fixed for $200 I'd be good with that. Otherwise, I'll just have to find another way to print my 11x17 stuff. Ugh.

Another thing you can try is to disconnect the hose from the cleaning pump and suck the ink out there with a syringe. This is much faster and the counter of the ink pads does not go up in score. Good video. Cheers

Hi, I am mechanically inclined, actually mechanic- you did a fantastic job of the total process of print head replacement - do you have a store front - in the New York Area - we have 4 heads to install on different machines

[@douglasmoody8294]

You did a great job on this video. This is my printer, and my problem is not so much that I need a new printhead, but when I do a nozzle check there is one line in black that always has gaps, no matter how many cleaning cycles I do. I think I can take out the printhead and soak it in cleaning fluid (ammonia). Perhaps this will clear out those nozzles. I don't know for sure. But you said the sponge pads under the printhead can be replaced. I would love to know how to do that. I have run so many cleaning cycles that I think this pad is soaked with old ink. Can you tell me how to do that? One final point --- please put your camera on a fixed focus. Every time you put your arm in the scene it focuses on your arm instead of the printer. Thanks again. You teach well!

[@PaoloMarcelli]

Hi Douglas You can try to soak the printhead with cleaning solution but that actually doesn't require that you remove it from the printer, but more on this later. About the "pads that can be replaced" I meant the waste ink pads, they are contained in the maintenance box, and you can change the maintenance box on your printer when it reaches the end of its service life with no problem, but it's not needed to replace it before. About the manual cleaning of the printhead, you can just unlock the carriage (as I've done in the video) then deposit some cleaning solution (not pure ammonia, you could damage the printhead, use at max. 30% ammonia in 70% distilled water) on the black pad on the purge unit. When the pad is totally filled with cleaning solution you can just move very slowly the head on top of it, keep in mind that when you'll move the head on the purge unit the pads will come up making contact with the bottom of the printhead (nozzle plate) so it's actually the same effect as removing the printhead and soak it externally. Also you don't need to remove the cartridges, so no air will get inside of the printhead. Finally, for the camera focus issue, I'm aware of this problem but I don't have a solution for this :/ I use my phone to record that is a Huawei P10 Plus, I don't use a camera with any settings to record professionally, but I always try my best not to block the view. Thank you anyway for all the suggestions, and if you need anything else feel free to contact me again :) Paolo M.

Why didn't you remove the cartridge cover ? It is quite easy, and makes access much better

Great Video ADCSFX!! I removed my printhead and see that the printhead ribbon has had a short (and 2 connector pins have blow) where the ribbon connects to the printhead on the black ink side of the printhead. I can't figure how to get the ribbon out of the printhead housing and the springloaded white ribbon holder on the right side. Also it looks like it will be very hard to put the 3 connectors in on the left side of the printer (in the corner). I can send pictures if that would help. Thanks so much for your thoughts. Vince

[@PaoloMarcelli]

Hi Vince! Unfortunately when that happens the printhead is shorted, and you need to replace the printhead, the flat cables and also the main PCB :/

[@kavya1638]

Know a good place to buy print heads? Trying to avoid ebay and those 3rd party walmart listings. All of the parts sold there are guaranteed to fail or ship with blocked channels. Print tests always have missing lines, even after head cleanings. They are shipping junk as so-called refurbished. I don't mind refurbished, as long as all the channels work consistently, but most of these Chinese sellers are scrounging up scraps and reselling them. Model is wf-7610. My last ditch effort was to buy a wf-3520 for cheap and swap the head, but that option is out since they're now selling for over $100 (or googles silly results showing $800 on shopping). Odd thing is, ebay used to sell sealed print heads that came from epson. Since the 7610 is an old model, I would at least have expected them to sell heads for the newest models like the wf-7820, but nothing.. if i bought that new printer, there would be no head replacement options for it same as the 7610 on ebay.

[@PaoloMarcelli]

In Italy I can buy printheads directly from Epson by their authorized dealers and service centers, try contacting an epson authorized dealer and ask them if they can sell you the head, it's very expensive though.

[@PaoloMarcelli]

HEY :) As everyone is asking the same thing I'll pin a comment up here: Is the WF-7610/WF-7620 printhead the same of the WF-7710/WF-7720? The answer is... It depends on the printhead revision and part number. You see, Epson updates their components when any defects are discovered. FA13001 and FA13002 part numbers only work on the WF-7610/WF-7620 , FA13031 part number works on both the WF-7610/WF-7620 and the WF-7710/WF-7720 And also: Where do you get replacement printheads? In Italy we can buy them from Authorized Epson Repair Centers, I don't know about other countries! I know MK Electronics and GEDAT Spare Parts are reliable Epson parts stores in Europe, other than that you can try to look on eBay/AliExpress but PAY ATTENTION!!! Printheads with different part numbers could be visually the same and you could end up with a printhead that does not work reliably for you, so if you go that route check carefully to see if they are genuinely the part number you need.

Hi. What an interesting and useful discussion forum! I wonder can anyone tell me if the main board for a WF7610 is identical to the one fitted to the WF7620? My WF7620 is coming with the fault code of 0x9A which seems to mean that the main board has a fault and needs to be changed. I've been offered a WF7610 board which hopefully will do the job! Also does anyone have a reciepe for an effective printhead unblocking fluid because the ones I have seen recommended such as Piezoflush is ridiculously expensive. I can get basic items such as isoprop alcohol, ammonia solution etc but am unsure what to use. I did try ammonia some time ago and I think it damaged the printhead of a WF2750 - maybe too concentrated. I've also seen here in the UK a product called 'printhead magic' also pretty expensive whose componant parts seem jealously guarded!!

Yeah these printer models featured in this repair are prone to having problems in the printhead. They have been the first printers with PrecisionCore Technology, they haven't been tested throughfully and a lot of them appeared to be defective. Epson released a new printhead part number that works fine, but still you have to replace the head.

Hi Paolo - great video thanks. I have error code 0x9A which happened after I removed and tried to clean the printhead.

@@nicktasker4808 Hi Nick... is not easy. WF is not technician friendly at all. The fuse is F2, and yes, it usually blows when ink spills. You have to dissasemble nearly all the machine, dissasemble the mainboard and in the CG36 mainboard is located next to the F3 fuse (near the F4 too). The other fuse is in the other side of the board. After soldering the new fuse make sure to clean the printheads and the carriage contacts with isopropyl alcohol. About replacing printhead... I never needed to do like in other epsons. The fuse (F2) is a fast 0.5amps so it just only blows the fuse, but never seen a burned transistor or blowed printhead on these machine series (7710, 7715 and 7720)

Never tried but I think you could, but before replacing it I'd try to flush it with glass cleaner such as windex, then install refillable cartridges with sublimation inks and run an ink initialization with the Adjustment Program.

Where can I buy the printhead for the WF7610 - I am in USA - thanks

[@PaoloMarcelli]

Hi! Read the pinned comment I wrote

Quick question where do you find the flat cable? My 7620 wouldn't power up after I turned it off after 3 print head cleans. I watched a video on this problem, and it was said that the flat cables could be damaged, and if so, the prin tree er wouldn't turn on. I Took it apart, and low and be hold that's the problem. I just need to replace the flat cable. Where can I find that? Thank you.

[@PaoloMarcelli]

Hi! I don't know where could you find it, but for sure the problem is not that XD it's a main logic board failure. The printer should power on even without those flat cables.

[@mainmandev]

@@PaoloMarcelli Thank you. Can one of those boards be purchased? Or just get s new printer?

[@PaoloMarcelli]

@@mainmandev It depends by the country I think, here in Italy Epson Authorized Centers can sell you mainboards and other components, but sure they are very expensive.

[@mainmandev]

Expensive like how much?. The printer was $300. Is it more than that?

[@EbenezerScroogeMcDuck]

PSA: If you own a wf-7610 or similar, do not buy a replacement print head. All print heads in circulation are refurbished heads that were originally refurbished. This means 80% or less of the nozzles/channels are working. You will never get a 100% clean head test. Epson does not manufacture brand new print heads for these models anymore, so you are going to end up with malfunctioning refurbs on ebay or amazon etc.. There may be less than 5 brand new print heads listed on the internet right now, that's about it. Expect to pay $300 for one of these. Buy a new printer. 7820 is the latest equivalent for 7610 (7840 for 7620, yes, weird numbering..) The print heads on those models are brand new and replacements in circulation are also new stock.

[@nuznannie]

Sure wish I had read this sooner since I just purchased a $35. printhead for my WF7610 and it did not fix the non-printing. Mine does not print at all. I put in ONE new cartridge since I do not want to spend the money to buy new carts if it will not print. I thought I may just redo the whole procedure; maybe I did something wrong but I followed the video to the letter. I get power and everything else works; scanner and USB ports.

[@mikeekeocha2359]

Are the printheads on eBay defective? I bought four but they didn't print

[@teddyblankenship782]

u seem reall ygood with these printers. I was gonna ask if you or anyone could PLEASE make a video on showing how to remove the star shaped exit rollers that cause Pizza Wheel marks? Ive been told it can be done and doesnt hurt anything but i am scared to do it without a guide since im not overly familiar with these printers and have only had this Epson WF-7720 for 2 months. So if someone could PLEASE make a video for this or a video some other way showing how to get past the pizza wheel marks on glossy paper.

[@PaoloMarcelli]

Hi! Yes they could be removed but I would not do that. It's not likely to cause problems when you print on high weight paper like glossy photo paper, but common paper at 80g/m2 really needs the guide of those star shaped rollers at the end, that could eventually cause a paper jam because the paper sheet could get in the way of the printhead/carriage, or you could have ink smudges on the prints! Anyway, I'd make a video if I had a printer to make the video on :/ unfortunately I don't have one at the moment.

[@teddyblankenship782]

@@PaoloMarcelli is there a step by step or somewhere i could find instructions on how to remove them? I cant stop the damn pizza wheels and its driving me crazy. I just wanna get rid of them.

[@teddyblankenship782]

if anyone could make a video of how to remove the little white plastic wheels or just show me how to get to them so i can remove them i would gladly pay for the persons time.

[@dwaynebodzenta7994]

I followed your directions to a tee. Now I turn the printer on and get a error message OX9a error. Any idea on what the problem is and how to fix it?

[@havenpilates6956]

Any luck fixing this? Im getting the same after a clean.

[@jamespaishon2545]

Any luck with this, I am getting the same error.

[@brettpierce8659]

I got error code 0x9a after trying to clean inside the printer. It turned out that I got some ink on the encoder ribbon (mostly clear with very fine vertical lines) which runs behind the print head. I carefully cleaned this ribbon and the error code went away.

hi, is it safe to replace a wf series print head with one made in china? because the price is cheaper

[@PaoloMarcelli]

Those are genuine epson printheads, but used. It's impossible to manufacture printheads. That said you can try, but be sure to be able to ask for a refund if they don't work.

where do you get replacement print heads?

Hi! Local company who works with Epson, but you can find on AliExpress and other sites, just be sure it's the latest revision.

If my yellow and Magenta ink is leaking on my prints when I print, does that mean I need to replace my printhead? Its not simple ink spots or lines it actual blobs of ink on my prints

[@PhotographyChick17]

or do I just need nozzle part?

[@PaoloMarcelli]

@@PhotographyChick17 Hi! There are some things to check that I need to know: 1. What printer are you using? I mean brand and model number. 2. Are the paper settings correct? 3. What type of cartridges are you using? (ex. compatibles, refillables, OEMs)

hi.. what printhead model works on wf-3640?

[@oltrig8804]

Volevo chiederti un consiglio. Sono sempre alle prese con la pulizia testine di varie stamanti come la r200 che ha solo problema al nero ( due trattini) è una sx125 con problema al nero. Con il Quasar ho risolto Delle situazioni ma in questi due casi non sto risolvendo sia nella r200 che non migliora e la sx125 che è migliorata da totale assenza di nero al ritorno del nero però molto imperfetto. Allora ho deciso di provare con un liquido Ocp ESS specifico per stampanti Epson per vedere se riesco a risolvere. Lascerò per 3 giorni il liquido iniettato da un tubicino è una siringa sopra che fa da contenitore come ho fatto per il quasar. Secondo te potrebbe essere la strada giusta? Oppure secondo te meglio Quasar? Mi girerebbero buttare una r200 solo per due trattini. Domanda meglio Quasar oppure liquido OCP PER testine Epson? Ciao fammi sapere

[@PaoloMarcelli]

Ciao! Scusa per il ritardo, ma sono stato un bel po' in ferie :) Sinceramente non ho esperienza con il liquido OCP ESS, ma non ho trovato differenze tra i liquidi di pulizia testine che ho comprato gli anni passati e il quasar. Nei casi più estremi (ma lì davvero rischi di buttare via la testina) ci metto il pool, ma solo come last resort, dopo aver provato e fallito col quasar, con la pulizia in ultrasonic, e altri metodi. Fammi sapere in caso :)

[@burnupd]

where do you get replacement head

[@PaoloMarcelli]

Sorry for the delay I bought it from an epson authorized reseller, but they are very expensive that way and I didn't pay for it (the customer and printer owner paid). You can find even some heads on AliExpress but I don't guarantee they are new revision... Paolo M.

[@mainmandev]

You never put back the 3 screws holding the printhead.or you didnt show it.

[@davidreyes7987]

Close the scanner unit 7620

[@PaoloMarcelli]

Hi This error is not related to anything you should've done to replace the printhead! Check all the tabs are attached correctly and nothing pushes against the scanner unit. Try closing manyally the scanner sensor to see if actually there's a problem with the sensor or it's something else Paolo M.
