Hi @Spezzato,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

Do not worry, I'd be happy to help you! 

 

I understand that you are facing issues with print heads.

 

The following steps provide the complete procedure for this topic.

  • From the front panel, turn the power off then on.
  • Check the front-panel display message, if it shows the ready message, the printer is ready to print. If the problem remains continue with the next step.
  • Remove the printhead, see Remove a printhead.
  • Clean the electrical connections on the backside of the printhead with a lint free cloth. You can carefully use a mild rubbing alcohol if moisture is needed to remove residue. Do not use water.
  • CAUTION:
  • This is a delicate process and may damage the printhead. Do not touch the nozzles on the bottom side of the printhead, especially not with any alcohol.
  • CAUTION:
  • Do not leave the printhead outside the printer for a long time. If this is absolutely necessary, cover the printhead with the original orange caps, then store it in a horizontal position.

 

Cleaning the printhead electrical connections

Reinsert the printhead, see Insert a printhead.

Check the front panel display message. If the problem remains, try a new printhead.
