I'm a software engineer. I used to hack printer devices (for example the epson xp320). In their program, there is a hard limit on how much ink can be spent on each color on one cartridge. What it means is even the nozzle is not clogged/jammed, the program will still disable the ink cartridge via its chip and makes it look like the nozzle is end of its life after certain prints using that color. That is the main reason of refilling ink doesn't work that well. I verified it by changing the chip on that cartridge, and everything just worked again. Not only that, the printer body will have a hard limit on how many times you can use the internal program to clean the nozzle. After that the whole printer will just stop working if the limit is reached.
Thank you so much for this information. You have no idea how I have been driving my self crazy with all the printers I have tried. I have own 4 epson and 2 canon printers and right now the Canon TR7020 that I have is showing that the black cartridge is not printing correctly and I had a feeling that it has to do with the filmware that I keep saying NO to the update. This information you posted here give me peace of mind that I am not crazy :) Any suggestions on how to avoid or fix all the limits you mentioned to make the ink cartridge work again?
@@VickyLatorreArt The easiest and most feasible way is to buy a bunch of the ink cartridge chips and change it when refill the cartridge. This still requires some $. Second way but may not work for all printers, is to buy one hacked chip for each cartridge. This type of chip when you run the printer program "replace the ink cartridge", the chip will be activated and update it's serial number to deceive the printer making it looks like a new cartridge. Third is to build your own firmware for the printer but it only works if you are the internal employee and have access to the source code. However, releasing the source code or the hacked firnware will get him/her into legality issues. Take my example xp320 printer, if you search xp320 refill chip, there are plenty of them on ebay.
@@VickyLatorreArt Also for resetting the nozzle cleaning limit, there maybe software online depending on your model that you can buy to do the reset. Although people like me they don't have access to the firmware source code, but hacking the device via UART/USB so that they know what command to use to reset the limit. But those reset can only clear the nozzle cleaning limit not the cartridge life span.
@@jasonliu3202 I purchased refillable cartridges with auto setup chips in the passed and they worked very well for me with the Epson Artisan 800 the rest of the printers have not give me the same luck. No matter what cartridge or ship they always end up not working. I was hoping me leaving Espon and getting a Canon would do a difference but I still have the same problem after I fixed it. This present black color cartridge I have in my Canon TR7020 stopped working. I changed the pigment ink to dye ink and used the cartridge clip Mr. Kevin has in his website and the cartridge came back to live twice. But now is doing the same thing again. I have tried everything. I have it soaking in water at the moment to see if that works. But after trying all that I have tried before I don't understand why it happened again. The only thing that makes sence to me it is what you mention about the limit and the filmware I have seen give problems to everybody. Thank you so much for all your imput. I really appreciate it.
hi Kevin at BCH I like the information you provide in this channel. I would like to add a bit why there are 2 lines of check nozzles in each color on a canon printhead. Although in some types there are several colors that only display one line. From my observations why there are 2 lines of check nozzles in each color is because there are 2 lines of nozzles in each color and both have different hole sizes. One row has a larger hole diameter than the other (in certain types, 5pl and 1pl are listed). That's why we get 2 lines of check nozzles. However, in some types, we only find 1 line of check nozzles, possibly because the color has the same nozzle diameter size each side.
Hey Kevin! Just wanted to thank you bro! For the very useful and accurate instructions. Specially, this one: "Do NOT give up too early...!" I've got a TS3440 PIXMA which has PG-440 & CL-445 cartridges. And I used to refill them with insulin syringes, without no trouble. But, after awhile the black cartridge stop printing even after refilling (I did not used to prime the cartridges at that time nor was aware of its necessity!) So I've end up breaking open the cartridge lid and removing the sponge trying to make an sponge less one, after seeing the near dry and almost white sponge in there. However failed to airproof the lid, everything was fine except for the ink flow to bottom plate. So I had to remove the lid again, though it was very hard this time- I had to sink the cartridge in acetone for several hours, trying to place back the sponge, fixing the gaps & ... After all, the most valuable tip of you which I kept in mind was "Do NOT give up too early, show your printer who is the boss!" Thank you brother, thank you very much!
I'm having this exact same issue with my ix6820, definitely a failed printhead. The light colors for my CYMK test print are completely blank. If I print in standard quality all colors print. If print in high quality, the colors are half missing. I've used the ix6520 for over 10 years and never had this problem. Not even when I removed and cleaned my printhead. Owned the ix6820 for 1.5 years and it's been nothing but issues. Glad to of found your youtube video as confirmation, because it's been driving me crazy.
Seems like the ink channels are all flowing after all those different cleaning methods, but maybe something electrical? As the 100% Cyan isn't firing 100% at all... but does for the Cyan 70%-80% test bar? All my CMY (and dye black) are NOT firing... but my pigment blacK does. The ink flows though manually, just not when printer executes the nozzles.
Amazing how little inkjet printer technology has advanced. We got lasers, we can print on various surfaces, UV inks, latex inks and now we can sculpt/print in 3D! but yeah we still cant keep print heads from clogging and causing banding on prints so were over here boiling, steam cleaning and wasting tons of time trying to talk to tech support as you work as printer technician in a frustrating effort just to save a print head thats going to mess up again anyway later on so you bite the bullet and eventually buy a new print head/printer. Ok, printer manufacturers, you win.
Canon MP520 ITs been a great printer. But the print head failed... or so I thought. I bought a new print head and at the 1st the printer did not recognize it. Then it did. Printing was restored slowly but there is no yellow. So I tested the print head in a different MP 520 = all colours have perfect saturation in the 2nd printer. So the yellow does not work in the first printer. Checked and cleaned gold pins on carriage with iso propyl = no change! Any suggestions? Eeprom, connection?
i inform everyone with this kind of problems, that canon is being abosive trying to sell his printer ink with the following method ..., because i already had two high resolution printers of the same brand a mark ii that gave head problem because I used cheap ink cartridges when I wanted to use them just for copying so I stupidly bought a pro 10-sa to think that I would never have any problems but I was wrong, I need these companies for photography exhibitions of which I use the originals but how the ink is it is very expensive for more basic things I change the ink cartridges, only that both had false problems in the print head. whenever I used non-figdinios ink cartridges from the beginning it diminished the quality of purpose after it gave the print head a problem with some use or injected a few more colors, so I decided to do some tests I changed for all the figdine ink cartridges and she magically stopped giving problems, then not happy i decided on 2 or 3 white ink cartridges and it worked well on the table. again I added more altered cartridges and it was a problem after a few prints. So I decided to understand what was going on and trick the system to see if it was really ink or canon to sell your ink cartridges created a purposeful problem. and voila I drained all the original ink from the fiddinios ink cartridges and injected the ink of another brand for testing, so I printed many things and it was no problem, that is, the problem is not the ink but the canon, they do something to give problems on purpose. ... it was my conclusion I spent a lot of stress with this problem I think I am not obliged to always have to use the brand's ink ....
Thank you for this video! My problem is that the black is not printing at all and the black ink just oozes or scatters in the printhead? How do I resolved it. Thank you so much in advance for your response.
Dear Kevin,my Canon Pixma MP490 prints perfect black but does not print color at all.When I print a nozzle check pattern,black is printed perfect,but below it the page is totally white (blank). Not a single trace of color. Both black and color cartridges are full (I refilled them myself). Of course,I've tried all unclogging methods, but nothing worked. Any suggestions? Happy 2023!
What does it mean if the pink lines do not print out and on the left side the C and M and Y are printing different shades of green on a canon pixma ts3150 printed?
If ink has dried within the head, using force or high temp will only make it harder to remove and ultrasonic and suction won't work. You want to start with the physically gentlest method . Start with low temperature chemical solvent and soaking, alternating with rinsing with warm water in a gentle flow in BOTH directions until the water runs clear. Check that head is clear of ink when resting screen side down on a dampened towel for 15 minutes. If any color emerges do another cycle.
hi, my nozzel check looks great on the colors and BK except for the left part (bars with C, C, M, M, Y, Y, between them) Those are all printing as a dark green. So my photos are all tinted green. But the black and color patterns seem to be perfect... What can I do?
My magenta is clogged. I soaked the cartridge in the warm cleaning solution then used the priming clip. In the nozzle check, there are now bars for the (supposed) magenta, but it is orange, same for the yellow. Will the magenta eventually come out?
Thanks for this video... the issue broth me here is a bit different. Hope I can hear your suggestion. My original printhead showed double lines on the squares at the top - so I ordered a new printhead But, the new printhead is not printing anything below the graph with the squares at the top. Not even the black marks on the side. In other words my printer doesn't print anything color so far. A rainbow text will end up as a blank page, even if the printer is acting as printing, the paper has no color ink on it. But everything black comes out nice and sharp. Is the problem with my printer or my printhead?
2:30 I don't think you're correct. Actually, there are different sets of nozzles, one that are able to project 1pl(or 2pl) droplets, and the other project bigger 5pl droplets. That explains why one can be clogged while the other are not. At least that's my understanding.
That's exactly what I was about to write now :) So it means, that one nozzle for blue is still clogged. I realized that after watching this video ruclips.net/video/o8B5TAqymks/видео.html where you can see CMKYMC nozzles. Thats the same as in test pattern, where is only one yellow, but two cyans and magentas. It also means when you are able to clean printhead from topside opening, you cannot be sure that both (or more) nozzles for that color are cleaned.
Hi kevin. My coloured cartridge pg 746 for canon is not printing cyan. I have tried everything from priming to washing sponges and putting it in warm water or steaming it or putting pressure. Please help.
what does it mean if the grid lines have a double lining in the middle, and the "PGBK" word on the left of the grid is also doubled when I do this nozzle check?
do you have any solution for the distorted PGBK black lines? i got too many comeback jobs after clearning the B05 error for waste ink counter reset on pixmas 5750, they come back with distorted text from the PGBK nozzles...
had same issue with my cl811 worked for few months then got issues like this.i even took everything apart. can it happen that its an issue from the back? copper contact from cartridge to the printer? was planning to revive my printer on getting a brand new cartridge :)
Great video. What does it mean if the entire top section with the black grid lines does not print at all? It’s not fuzzy, or slightly printed, it is completely missing, and the rest of the page prints fine.
the version of Canon nozzle chack page I had head is the under or liter part is printed in a smaller drop size. That maybe the answer of why some model have 3level in each color and other have 2. Finnaly , do you speak Chinese?
Could another possible reason be that the gold pad contact for that specific nozzle is not cunducting properly? I had a black canon cart do it, then replaced and then the color did it, been trying everything it prints just like that
Good day, thank you for this info. but it doesnt work for me. i did all the cleaning, deap cleaning, hot water, vacuum, but still the colored cartridge still not working. but when i check the nozzle, i put it on a tissue paper theres a mark of the 3 colors. but when i put it back in the printer theres no coming out. what should i do sir?
Hello Kevin BCH. Ihave the first problem and after 6 cleanings it still persists exactly the same. The white streaks in the nozzlecheck is not in the full-color bar but in the 70% bar on all colors blu, magenta and yellow. Another problem is on color prints, i see a faint bar across the paper, it's not a white streak, that has a slight darker color than the color on paper. It's on all color prints. Could it be a dirty roller or the paper is too close to the printhead at that point? Thanks
Hi Kevin. I follow Canon's procedure for cleaning my MP 560 printhead. On the nozzle check I am getting a vertical off white space (OR LACK OF INK)on line 20 of the top multiple squares and on the rest of the colors two off white line using the square boxes as a reference the line would be in box 23 and 25. This until the bottom back color and it goes to one line at box 27 Any ides or is a new print head called for . Please let me know Thanks
Hi Kevin. Thank you for the informative video. Just one question. I have a Canon ip7240. On the nozzle check print, none of the Cyan lines are printing. It comes out pure white (as per your video). Is it safe to assume that the print head has died?
Hello there , please help I tried to unclog the canon 47 black cartridge by putting it into hot water for 10 min and dried it, but in the end I'm unable to succeed it....there is problem of horizontal lines on taking prints ..., What should I do... please help
In my experience, this is what happened and the same may be the case for you. Ideally, you refill the cartridge before it is empty. Also, the refill works for me around 4 to 5 times after which I eventually need to use a new cartridge as no matter what I do for unclogging (or horizontal lines in print or missing C, Y or B in nozzle check print) it does not work. If yours is the original which has dried up, unfortunately, you will have to go for a new one as the same happened for me for an original 746S color cartridge if all techniques of isopropyl alcohol, warm/hot water, canon deep cleaning did not work.
When you soak the printer head in water........I sure hope its only distilled water as tap water has too many minerals and will cause issues when its dry,
Привет. Можно сделать субтитры к этому видео? Очень интересно узнать, что значит в тестовой странице светлые полосы каждого цвета. С чёрным цветом всё понятно, каждый пиксель рисует свою часть решетки. А цветные заливают полностью полигон. Почему так? У Epson цветные картриджи рисуют решетку.

Say the end part, it in the beginning. 😄 Save us time to watch it.
what does it mean if the grid lines have a double lining in the middle, and the "PGBK" word on the left of the grid is also doubled when I do this nozzle check?
Sir whats the problem if I print there line in the picture?
that also my problem on canon pg 810 & cl 811 I also think it is not about clogged nozzle but it was damaged or defective nozzle
Where can I buy these cartridges or what kind of cartridges are these? I have a g4411 and the black needs to be replaced.
do you have any solution for the distorted PGBK black lines? i got too many comeback jobs after clearning the B05 error for waste ink counter reset on pixmas 5750, they come back with distorted text from the PGBK nozzles...
Could be the nozzle worn out. A scan will be helpful
I refilled my canon pixma e 3370 then later i took a nozzle check print then yellow color is not coming in it please brother help me
had same issue with my cl811 worked for few months then got issues like this.i even took everything apart. can it happen that its an issue from the back? copper contact from cartridge to the printer? was planning to revive my printer on getting a brand new cartridge :)
And finally Method 6: Sledgehammer
Great video. What does it mean if the entire top section with the black grid lines does not print at all?
It’s not fuzzy, or slightly printed, it is completely missing, and the rest of the page prints fine.
What did u find out?
great tests...
Kevin Pls tell me how to bring in service mode
the version of Canon nozzle chack page I had head is the under or liter part is printed in a smaller drop size.
That maybe the answer of why some model have 3level in each color and other have 2.

Could another possible reason be that the gold pad contact for that specific nozzle is not cunducting properly?
I had a black canon cart do it, then replaced and then the color did it, been trying everything it prints just like that
Thank you so much xxxxx
do you know any suppliers of empty, refillable cartridges of this type?
I did a nozzle check and there are no magenta stripes although all ink wells are full. Can you suggest a solution?
it's clogged. btw the ink levels are bullshit
@@rodrigodiaz7167 Yep the machine read it as less than it actually would've been, fucking punk ass Canon bastards.
i print red but orange print appeared? what is the problem?
hi! wich liquid did you use for the vacuum process? I have one with edible ink! Thank you so much
Im confused, you didnt fix it tho? So how to?
Okay so what do I do when my nozzle isn’t clogged but my pics still print out green
Good day, thank you for this info. but it doesnt work for me. i did all the cleaning, deap cleaning, hot water, vacuum, but still the colored cartridge still not working. but when i check the nozzle, i put it on a tissue paper theres a mark of the 3 colors. but when i put it back in the printer theres no coming out. what should i do sir?

On the nozzle check I am getting a vertical off white space (OR LACK OF INK)on line 20 of the top multiple squares and on the rest of the colors two off white line using the square boxes as a reference the line would be in box 23 and 25. This until the bottom back color and it goes to one line at box 27 Any ides or is a new print head called for . Please let me know Thanks
Hard to tell. Send me a picture.
I follow your clip, but the position of black bar "BK" is sitll zigzag. How to resolve it?
Check your timing belt.
may be it is a contact point problem. i have this problem too with my catrigde may be you can try
Hi Kevin. Thank you for the informative video. Just one question. I have a Canon ip7240. On the nozzle check print, none of the Cyan lines are printing. It comes out pure white (as per your video). Is it safe to assume that the print head has died?
It may still be salvageable. Put it in boiling water and give it a good prime.
The only time to give up is you see the 2nd bar but not the first. If both are missing, it is good news.
@@BCHTechnologies Thank you so much Kevin. I truly appreciate your feedback! 🙏🏻
Mine , when printing it fades or its light like so light that it doesnt match the original color how do u fix that please can someone answer???
You can get UV resistant ink.
Hello there , please help
I tried to unclog the canon 47 black cartridge by putting it into hot water for 10 min and dried it, but in the end I'm unable to succeed it....there is problem of horizontal lines on taking prints ...,
What should I do... please help
In my experience, this is what happened and the same may be the case for you. Ideally, you refill the cartridge before it is empty. Also, the refill works for me around 4 to 5 times after which I eventually need to use a new cartridge as no matter what I do for unclogging (or horizontal lines in print or missing C, Y or B in nozzle check print) it does not work. If yours is the original which has dried up, unfortunately, you will have to go for a new one as the same happened for me for an original 746S color cartridge if all techniques of isopropyl alcohol, warm/hot water, canon deep cleaning did not work.
When you soak the printer head in water........I sure hope its only distilled water as tap water has too many minerals and will cause issues when its dry,
Hi Kevin. Finally, does cartridge uncloge ?
No. It isn't clogged. It is too old and the heating element is malfunctioning. You can see cyan coming out quite easily, that's not a good sign.
BCH Technologies I had the same problem last two week ago. After I buy two cartridges from you. Those work very well. Thank you.

Привет. Можно сделать субтитры к этому видео? Очень интересно узнать, что значит в тестовой странице светлые полосы каждого цвета. С чёрным цветом всё понятно, каждый пиксель рисует свою часть решетки. А цветные заливают полностью полигон. Почему так? У Epson цветные картриджи рисуют решетку.
Сделаю. Всего несколько минут.
Explain the numbers below what do they symbolize ?
total amount of pages printed from that exact cartridge. I guess that's why there are 2 numbers: black cartridge and color cartridge
What does thise 3301-3350 number mean?
Number of sheets printed.
what's the problem if those "CMY" black part becomes brown?
Probably just the mixing in the first few pages. Keep printing and see if the problem persists.
@@BCHTechnologies it persists on the following pages too. i have this problem for almost 1 week :(
