27:24 Titration Method to Unclog Epson Printhead
Re-created with Audio Fix. Thanks for the comments. Today we are going to talk about how to unclog dried Epson OEM inks. Many people keep using Epson’s OEM ink because they believe that Epson OEM ink won’t clog the printheads. Actually, dried pigment ink is the hardest type of ink to unclog, and Epson’s ink is even worse.

Hi again Kevin!
I was curious and waiting for Part 2 of this video to come out, as I'm interested in seeing the method for which you would unclog a DURABrite Ultra (pigment) EPSON model. Will it be out any day now? :D
Finally a useful, properly informative video. Not those "check your ink level" and "do a cleaning program in the printer" lame crap.
Is that you, Kevin? The gentleman in this video sounds a lot like who I spoke with when I was called back to assist with my EPSON Workforce 610 clogged CYAN & BLACK nozzle problem. It was a pleasure and this video is great, way more informative than any other in the same regard 😁
Man, great channel and content. Only wish I had found it last night while searching before I shorted out my printhead, printer, and 2 carts.
Thank you Kevin, it has made my Sunday morning complete. I feel better about doing this when my cleaning kit arrives later this week. Very informative and interesting. Take care.
Fantastic detailed, informative video Kevin ! And I love your sense of humour :) keep it up.
Thank you so much for the thorough explanation and step-by-step techniques to clean the printhead and avoid frying the electronics.
Many thanks for posting this. Super informative material. Truly appreciate your efforts and instruction.
Your voice is so soothing
You are professional!! Well Done
Great video! Really informative ... Thanks
THANK YOU ! I have a 1400 that once worked beautifully , now its dried/clogged. I'm going to apply your method a go.
Hey if you ended up going trhouhh with it, howd it go??
Like most people, I'm lazy and decided cleaning, wait 12 hours, clean again repeat 12 times was just more work than I had time to do so I orderd a replacement head from the A to Z company (no free advertizing) but when it came it was a used and poorly cleaned head that didn't work so now I'm about to do your method with one change - I decided to put the head on a long soak in a vaccuum chamber to suck all the air out before I try priming the head with ink. I'll post the results later to see if vaccuum method works. I got the idea from Jose Rodriguez Photo Printing Teck channel. A long time ago I bought a cleaning kit like your RED but the tubes that came with it were way to large and just leaked all over. I hope you have a variety that fits the WF 7620.
Best channel ever! You're so good. May Allah bless you and thank you for all the deep information.
Thank you! I learned something today - very informative video. Very useful in helping me home repair during lockdown when all repair shops closed.
Hi Kevin
Really appreciated the video
Can’t seem to find part 2 of the video, would it be possible to send me the link
Thanks
Sean
good job friend
Good procedure.
My old Epson R2880 A3 printer stopped printing black years ago - I'm assuming the other other colours have seized by now as well... But I'll follow this and see if I can get the old girl working again... Its a great printer - expensive to run, but very good. I'll admit I tend to use low quality ink for most prints... its only "proper" prints that get the good stuff.
I have a wf7720 and getting this 034503 error but everything is closed and looks good. Do you know whats wrong? Love your videos by the way.
Kevin, you named this Part 1, is there another Part to it ? I couldn't find any.
Hi Kevin, good morning, My problem with my Epson WorkForce 610. I bought new cartridge Black Ink. But it says, the following cannot be recognized, please help me.
Thanks.
Great information. Do you have a video for unclogging a wide-format printer like the Epson 9880? I'm not even sure if my clog is in the print-head or the lines themselves.
Excellent. Now I need to get some bits. Do you deliver to the UK?
Great
Hi. You sould show some example of how your cleaning liquid disolve dry pigment ink in some lab container.
13:01 - WTF... Excellent explanation.
Hey thank you for posting great information. My Epson WF-4730 is giving me an error 000103, do you know what to do about it. Epson told me it is a hardware error and since my unit is out of warranty there was nothing they could do....is that great?
Bad printhead
I had the same problem on my Epson XP5100 (no printing even with new cartridges), I tried all the possible fixes I could find on RUclips, none of the fixes worked, I ended up trashing the printer, no more Epsons for me, probably going back to H-P.
28:42 Epic!
HI JUST HAVE 2 CHANELS LC AND LM WICH ARE NOT WORKING WITH DTF WHITE INK ,WORKING PERFECTLY BEFORE NEXT DAY STOPPED WORKING .I DO A WATERFALL FLUSH PRINTHEAD EVERYTHING LOOK OK BUT WHEN TRY TO DO A NOZZLE CHECK OR PRINTING DOESNT WORK .IS THIS PRINTHEAD DONE ??I THINK NEED TO CHANGE IT PLEASE ANY ADVISE BEFORE BUY ANOTHER ONE .THIS PRINTER I A EPSON 4900 FROM YEAR 2014 .NEVER CHANGED PRINTHEAD JUST NOW I CONVERT IT TO DTF WORK LIKE 1 MONTH AND 2 CHANELS ARE CLOGED
I'm injecting the cleaning solution to the clogged nozzle, but why is the solution coming back up through another nozzle? For instance, injecting solution to yellow nozzle, the solution will come back out of the magenta nozzle instead of going onto the waste/blotting paper.
Can you use this DTG printheads? I have an Omniprint Freejet 330tx Plus Direct To Garment printer that has an EPSON Stylus Photo R2400 Print head. It uses Gamut ink. These videos help alot!!
Hi Joel,
Did this work?
And is this a reliable method over the long term? How many such cleaning did you do while keeping the head working?
@@yoavkatz7717 I never got to try it but it was definitely interesting.
how do you replace the sponges that wipe the bottom of the printhead. Epson 7210 ??
I will make a video.
Where is PART 2?????????
I have a wf7720 that puts out too much black ink which creates smudges all over prints the prints come out fine but blots of black ink. I clean and after few prints it's blotting again.
perhaps check the setting for thick paper? I understand it lifts the head slightly to avoid blots/smudges
My printer is not printing black colour even when i change to a new black cartrage my printer is Epson XP-405 is there any thing I can do to solve this problem.
Yeah, Watch this video!
So I must have damaged the black ink channel, and fried the chip board under it, with flushing it with cleaning solution, and pushing too hard, because, now the black refuses to print anything, while all the other colors work perfectly. Guess I have no other choice now, but to buy the red solution, and try to do even more damage by letting it sit on the print head overnight.
My company has a Direct Color Systems 7200z that's based on the Epson Stylus Pro 7900. I believe we have a clog that occurred after our quarantine ended. I've been unable to clear it. I'm very reluctant to remove the head because I don't know how to calibrate it after. And I can't attach one of the EPSON clearing carts to it because of the way it's set up.
Do you have any advice on how I can clear a clog or troubleshoot to see if it's a clog or a bad print head? The error I'm getting when I try to run is Fatal Error 1A39.
If you email me, I can refer you someone who can take care of it. Support@bchtechnologies.com

clean it coming out clear now now have a code on EPSON WF 2750 0x9a
I have an Epson Et4550. So what happened was I basically let it sit for about a year because of this pandemic until I realized what I had done. Initially it wasn’t printing anything on paper. I watch your video I bought the solution and it’s almost work. I got three of the four colors to come back. Black refuses to come back. Not only that, and one print heading also check I think I’m making progress, on the next one I’ll get no black at all. I’ve been doing this for two weeks man. Need some advice
Could you please restate your last two sentences? It confused me.
@@lionintu its ok. Printer is gone.
@@AnonymousAlcoholic772 I feel u. I'm never buying a ecotank again.
@@lionintu yeah, good idea in concept but devil in details. So it needs constant use to stay functional but most people dont have that kind of demand. But its too slow for proffesional settings. So 👎🏻
@@lionintu i replaced it with a led color laser from brother which is superior in every way except for photo printing which it sucks. When i get back home ill play around with settings and see if it can improve on that.
In my expirience - this is very time wasting and dangereous method.
I'm talking about doing all this work INSIDE the carriege. It's better to get out printhead, place it on towel or wool disk soaked with cleaning liquid and let it rest for some time.
Then you use same tubes with syringe to flush cleaning liquid towards untill you see straight "rain". Then dry PH, let it some rest on dry towel and you can run it.
This is a little bit risky, but works very fast and with great results
Why is your printer so slow
