How to replace the printhead of HP OfficeJet 6700 Premium Printer

[@anonymousbyproxy8250]

It seems that all printers are programmed to irreversibly shut down after a certain use time and to make even more money they shut down after a new set of printing ink cartridges are installed !!!

[@quinnxx6147]

Great video but you forgot to show to remove the two top screws in the back of the printer in order to pivot the ADF and glass scanner bed. Other than that minor omission great video in how to open this printer.

[@wbarjwells6473]

Thank you!

[@lucatn]

I agree...you forgot that, but i was able to open it anyway! Modify the video and add the tip!!!

[@HOLMES-B221]

The hardest part for me is trying to get the ADF and glass scanner bed separated. I found the two screws on the back close to the top, removed them and still it does not want to separate.

[@stewardship8147]

Yes!!! I nearly broke the plastic in the rear of the glass bed knucklehead!!!

[@rdhawk777]

this music is distracting and TOO LOUD!!

[@jimcarey7150]

This device is difficult to access. Your video, with arrows and close-ups and various angles, is so clear and well-explained, I might actually replace my printhead.

[@williamruiz5928]

I never will buy this. N EV E R

[@1mako2009]

I tried to clean the contacts of the print head. Still doesnt work. I assume there is failure date „written“ in the software. Bought a new printer.

[@anonymousbyproxy8250]

U did the right thing ! All brands in US are designed to break down in 2-3 years of modest use, sooner for heavier use.

[@alfredreinprecht1987]

Thank you for the great Video. As Quinnxx mentioned below it is really important to remove the two top screws. I removed the printhead of a four year old 6700, cleaned it and installed it again. Problem fixed - Printer works :-)

パーツ交換には成功しましたが、駄目でした。

[@dougiequick1]

What INFRURIATES me and makes me want to torture someone at HP? Is how EVEN though you have plenty of black ink it REFUSES to print if one of the color cartridges is supposedly too low...WTF?? Also in the same light if ANYTHING is wrong with printhead or cartridges? Won't let you even use the scanner?? I will NEVER EVER EVER buy another HP..or Cannon for similar reason! SCREW these greedy THIEVES

[@xianece1]

Try to check if the cartridges that are installed is/are not yet expired.

[@jimcarey7150]

No worries, people. 2:08 Pushing the colored ring at lower part of each cartridges certainly will NOT remove the "ink" on its own--but the ink cartridges.

[@smuller79]

It didn't show the two screws on the back, which I only found out after I broke the printer trying to get the glass top off. Oops. I'll read the comments first next time...

[@allansplace]

Thanks for the instructions. Made my life a lot easier. Much better than struggling alone!

[@chelsea7658]

thanks for making this...but i stripped the screw in the back so it went in the garbage. would be nice if they could use decent screws, and we didn't have to use a hex.

[@RickHamlet]

Great video... However, I replaced the printhead and still get the massage "There is a problem with the printer or ink system". Got any ideas what I should check next? Thanks. Rick

[@refquesog8104]

Rick Hamlet Same Problem

[@olexystanko9401]

I got same problem after I clean pretty well.

[@joshuachen6324]

The top screws in the front were like...pre-stripped when I tried to do it despite using a T10 hex (all the other screws came off fine). Might have to give up =/

[@dougiequick1]

On the screen help the crooked ASHBITES should simply pulling the print head and replacing it similar to ink cartridges? CROOKS! THIEVES! SUMBAGS! DEATH to HP!

[@lylee8579]

Whoa, this is not an easy job! Thanks for posting this instruction video.

[@andreww2553]

I was able to fix my printhead problem because of your video, thank you for the upload.

[@johnpark9980]

I'll just buy a new printer

[@chromeandleather]

Thanks so much! You saved me hours and money! It works perfectly.

[@centuryltd]

THANK YOU!!!! BIG HELP!!!! :) :) :) Regards from a Mexican in Germany! :)

[@anonymousbyproxy8250]

Poor product. A money pit. HP is h-pee-pee (pi-pi in Spanish).

[@IronWall866]

How do I replace the Wi-Fi card, and where is the motherboard of the printer?

[@amychittenden523]

Excellent video for the patient one. We need to post the directions to Best Buy.

[@dbdb1791]

TY for the video! What effects the ink cartridge snap in? Where are excess ink pads? HP 6600

[@MirlaCriste]

So. How exactly do I remove a hexalobe screw? My regular hex keys don't seem to work, I gather because of the curve of the slot in each screw. Google only refers to surgical implants regarding these kinds of screws.

[@xianece1]

Mirla Criste You can buy the T-10 Torx at amazonm see link below... www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000KFV9C8/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=xianece1-20&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B000KFV9C8&linkId=301e12667b9a2fa0c4be12e96d281e5a

[@BobaFat-uj2qx]

Thank you! We did it :)

[@zebrafreerunning5466]

Mine gives me the error code and when I removed the print head ink leaked. I got it for free so ima gonna scrap it

[@shfortruth]

Needs narration during the application of removing and replacing printhead - better still show someone actually doing it.

[@ostrowitzostrowitz3864]

Hi, I followed all instructions, replaced the printhead, everything is as it should be but I am getting an error message which prevents me from printing or scanning: "The print carriage cannot move. . ." and telling me to remove obstructions. I followed the HP video, checked everywhere, did a hard reset, soft reset, etc etc. I can't get past this and I don't know what I am missing. Can anyone help get this to work now? Thanks for your help.

[@xianece1]

Kindly double check all the cables if properly intact and connected.

[@David-bf6pl]

You didn't insert the transparent encoder tape back into the encoder which is mounted on the printhead circuit board. Its an easy fix. The same thing happened to me.

[@ronii8502]

The video was very helpful. I took out the head, unclogged it and reinstalled it. Thank you.

[@dienstagwicht]

As good and helpful this video is, I am stuck on the removal of the front panel shown between 3:19' and 3:22' - that corner on the upper right corner just does not come off and I fear breaking the plastic part using more force. The front panel is loose on all other sides, can be turned within limits but the right upward connection between the front panel and main body does not move. Does anyone know, what kind of mechanism holds there, it feels like glued in? Does not seem to constitute a problem for others doing this.

[@CognacKidd]

YEAH HOW LONG DID IT TAKE YOU?

[@greggha]

@@dienstagwicht This is a VERY common design feature of most modern electronics. Honestly if the printer is not working, simply pry it open despite the resistance. It won't destroy the printer, it will just make it easier to open the next time if it does break. The way these things "snap" together is usually a small plastic bracket that clips onto a raised pin-like tab that is on the opposing piece. The result is two parts that snap together easy, but don't come apart easy. Another method is to pry it open enough to slide in a credit card, and swipe the card while gently prying the plastic.

[@taivonrashford6439]

great review sir

[@geodina3111]

thx but still problem remains

[@goodtraits693]

What's with the music? Lose the music and explanation (person actually talking what they are doing) with red arrows would be better. Hate the music sound!

[@TheCanadianWelder]

It's just music, dude. Why are you so passionately against it. Someone likes it if they made it, and this guy does because he put it in his video. Just turn your volume off.

[@Arlequin02100]

Thank you very useful for me :)

[@angelomancino]

I replaced the print head but then it showed up 0x61000f6 carriage jam error with very wierd noises!!! And how to fix it? Thanks

[@edithboucher7254]

Angelo Mancino : We changed the printhead today. We have the same problem as you. Do you find some answers?

[@angelomancino]

Edith Boucher unfortunately I didn't! At the moment my printer is back in its box 😞

[@edithboucher7254]

Angelo Mancino thank you for your answer.

[@maximedesmarchelier7751]

I know it's late but I'm having the same issues and figured out. You didn't place the transparent thing in place. This line indicate the printhead where it has to stop

[@angelomancino]

Maxime Desmarchelier can you post a picture or something more clear? I still have that printer...

[@tonyhegewald4121]

thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@lorddootinator4332]

My scanner won't come up dude :/

[@thander1992]

you need to remove 2 more screws from the back of the printer in order to lift scanner !!
