Hi @ToolTweak,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I can guide you on the general process of cleaning the printhead for an HP Officejet Pro 8610 printer.
To clean the printhead on an HP 8610 printer, you can follow these steps:
On the printer's control panel:
- From the printer's control panel, touch or swipe down the tab at the top of the screen to open the Dashboard.
- Touch the "Setup" icon.
- Touch "Tools."
- Touch "Clean Printhead" or a similar option.
Using HP Print and Scan Doctor:
- Download and install the HP Print and Scan Doctor from the official HP website.
- Run the tool and follow the on-screen instructions. It can automatically diagnose and fix printing and scanning problems.
Manually cleaning the printhead:
- Consult your printer's manual for specific instructions on manually cleaning the printhead.
- Typically, you may need lint-free cloths, distilled water, and isopropyl alcohol. Ensure the printer is turned off before starting.

I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
