Epson T1881 Printhead Replacement for WorkForce WF-7710 7720 7110 7610 7620 3620 3640 T252

[@clif9710]

Kevin, I discovered what I did that caused my WF 7710 to malfunction (see my comments just below) after I completed my inkjet print head replacement. Anyone might easily do as I did and get the same problem. There is a transparent strip of plastic, about 5mm wide that runs the length of the cartridge carrier path. The cartridge carrier has a sensor looking at this strip as the carrier moves. When I did my head removal and replacement, I got smudges of ink on this plastic strip. This caused the failure of the printer to initialize resulting in a 000031 error. Cleaning off the ink smudges from the plastic strip solved the problem. Thanks again for your excellent video.

[@claudiab6752]

thanks for the smudge relief!

[@BCHTechnologies]

Thanks for sharing. There is another cause for 000031, which is the cap station (waste tank assembly) stuck to the bottom of the printhead carriage. I have a video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3XZpKOqfceMZ9k

[@sallynjenga2096]

@@BCHTechnologies I wanted to kindly ask does a faulty print head cause the printer(WF7610) not to power up? I did conduct multiple head cleaning and it shut down. When l power it up it lits up or a sec then its off

[@heatheronnen1585]

I have a question. I switched a printhead from my donor wf7710 to my current wf7710 and did step by step of your video. When I power it back on, it shoots left, somewhat hard, and gives 2 different error codes. What am I doing wrong?

[@angelawilson6662]

Thank you Kevin at BCH! This is a great video. I followed it to the letter and replaced my 7720 printhead with one that I purchased from AliExpress as a new printhead. After I replaced the printhead, I turned on the printer and got the "print head might need maintenance" message". pressed "OK" and it continued just fine. Sadly the printer didn't print a single line when I did a nozzle check and then a print head cleaning. I did the nozzle check twice and nothing changed. I am no longer getting the 00031 error but I suspect that the "new" printhead is really just bypassing that error somehow, however, I will let the printer sit overnight and hopefully it will work. Even if it does not work, this video is an excellent reference guide to those needing technical repairs and maintenance. Thank you again. I appreciate the help.

[@maryalvarez1751]

I’m having this same issue. I didn’t replace the print head but I took it all apart to give it a deep cleaning. Set the print head to the side and didn’t touch it. But I was getting black and yellow to print before. Now that I’ve put it all back together I’m getting no ink at all. Hopefully I can refollow this video and get it to work

[@jdnoheare6631]

I watched several videos on how to remove printheads as mine were clogged and yours was by far the very best!! You did not skip any step and patiently explained and SHOWED where to or how to find connections and snap things out easily! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I am desperate to get this thing printing again! I cant afford a new printer $$$$. And the captions are excellent, Im Deaf and it was super clear.

[@danchapman8218]

Hey Kevin, my WF-3640 stopped printing so I ordered the cleaning solutions, did all the cleaning, still clogged nozzles. Tried cleaning the nozzles multiple times. Finally I ordered my printhead replacement, followed your directions to a T, put it back together and holy cow, it worked! Thanks for your help!

[@rivkahlafille1031]

My cyan print head clogged, and I followed these instructions for removing and replacing my print heads.. Just wanted to say THANK YOU for your clarity in taking this apart and putting it back together. I did have a little difficulty initially where I was getting an error and the whole unit wouldn't re-set once I turned it on, but I took it apart again (so much easier the second time), double checked everything was attached and seated, and actually had to do this a few times, until finally it took! Not sure what I did the fourth time vs the first, but hey. It worked. For those who are cleaning a print head instead of replacing it, I had to run maintenance about four or five times before I started getting ink again. Woohoo!! Glad to have my printer back and to not have to replace it now. Only had this printer a year! My Canon printheads NEVER clogged (in literally ten years of usage of the same machine), but I've always heard Epsons can be prone to clogging. Guess I've just found out how true that is! Thanks again for this video! It really helped!

[@PatriciaVanCutsemsinger]

Thank you so much for this video. Being a non technical person, your video convinced me in ordering a new printhead and installing it. Following your clear and calm instructions I just managed to replace it in less than 15 minutes. You are really good at what you do and how you do it. And as a singer and sound woman your calm and steady voice helped a lot. Thank you sir.

I did have to run the printer through a couple cleaning cycles but after that, only the black was printing the test pattern. One of my cartridges was low so I replaced it. The printer went through the cycle of preparing the ink system and after that was complete, all colors printed.

[@user-sf9mh1ms4q]

For people who have the wf-7010, it is a little different (less parts to remove)but the similarity is the contact tab (or holder board) removal on 4:04 or 4:06 (and pause it) but on both sides (plastic pointing up with a little tab on top). I wished you showed the tab a bit longer to see. It is the top part of the tab that needs to be pushed in on both sides which is hard to see if you are looking at it from the top. The wire tape needs to be remove on the right side first or else it is on the way and cannot slide upwards. I had a hard time discovering it that I like to at least tell other people who likes to replace or clean their Printhead on wf 7010. Ones the tab is removed, it is pretty self explanatory removing the printhead with 3 screws.

Yes, absolutely... if you do it right. I won't use windows cleaner because it is not filtered. I will use a professional cleaning solution, filtered to 0.22 micron. Then I will put it inside the printhead overnight and let it do the work.

[@paullawrie]

Thanks for the video, I was able to replace the print head easily. Everything seemed to fit properly back in and I was very careful, however now I just get blank pages when printing (at least 2 of the colours were working before). Might there be a common issue, or did I get a dud print head?

[@BrendaMartinez-ll4ph]

I'm having the same problem, did you find a solution?

[@BCHTechnologies]

It depends on where you get the printhead. Many of them come with wetter solution filled inside, so the printhead will not dry out during storage. You will need a couple of cleanings before seeing any color.

[@wombatdaddy8323]

After a print head short on my WF-7720, I ordered new printhead and cables from AliXpress as it was the only place I could find that would send them to New Zealand. I fixed the fuse one the mainboard, and reassembled with new parts, and the machine makes it look like it's printing, but fires nothing at the page. The new head does have ink in it, as I can take it out, and blot it to check. So I disassembled the old print head and cleaned, dried that, and put it back in. That throws an error 34503, which I cannot find any useful information on. Stuck with an expensive lump of e-waste. The nearest agent is over 2 hours drive away, which at current fuel prices is more than the printer is worth! What do I do? Buy a Brother?

[@BCHTechnologies]

034503 MEANING=" Contact error at I/S clutch operation" DESCRIPTION="E Ink system failure". It is an ink system failure. You probably pulled out the ink contact cable while installing the printhead.

One year later, I'm back. Apparently all replacement heads are not the same. I ordered one for $60, (Epson charges $250) it says made in China on it which must be where Epson sources its heads, and looks identical to the original. When I installed it, I got a prompt that the head had been replaced and to do a nozzle check. When attempting a nozzle check, I was given a error 031008. I took the head out, checked the cables and positioning, put the head back in and made sure the ink tanks were seated and the contacts on them clean. No change, still error 031008. Thinking that my Epson WF7710 might be able to detect a non-Epson-supplied head, I reinstalled the original head. No error. Now I must pay the same amount for a replacement head as I paid for the printer? It sure looks that way.

I cannot get it back in because the lines (white cables that do into the sides) are in the way. I cannot get it to go back in.

Can you use Epson 7710 for the 7720 ?

For changing the printhead? There is no difference for that.

[@cathybenteau9783]

wondering if anyone else had this problem::: I followed your instructions and changed my printhead. When I ran a nozzle check the only pattern that printed was black... even after several head cleanings. while doing this I cleaned my old printhead so I decided to put that one back in and see what would happen. Well now the only pattern that is printing is magenta and no other color. What is happening? Is it something other than the printhead problem?
