"Ink system failure" "Missing or failed printhead" "The printhead appears to be missing, not detected, or incorrectly installed" These are the error messages I'm getting on my printer--HP Officejet 6700 Premium All-In One H711n  I've restarted it numerous times & that doesn't help. I can't access the menu on the printer to clean the printhead...how do I do that from my computer? Any other suggestions to get this problem resolved? Thank you, Jean

HI @JB5825,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

If you're seeing those error messages on your HP Officejet 6700 Premium, here are some steps to help resolve the issue:

1. Check Printhead Installation

  • Remove and Reinstall: Power off the printer, open the access door, and carefully remove the printhead. Check for any obstructions or damage, then reinstall it firmly.

2. Clean the Printhead

  • Using Software:
    1. Open the HP Printer Assistant on your computer. If you don’t have it installed, download it from the HP website.
    2. Go to Printer Maintenance and select Clean Printhead or Clean Cartridges. Follow the prompts to complete the cleaning process.

3. Check for Updates

  • Ensure that your printer’s firmware is up to date. You can check for updates in the HP Printer Assistant or on the HP website.

4. Reset the Printer

  • Unplug the printer from the power source, wait for 60 seconds, and then plug it back in. This can sometimes clear temporary issues.

5. Run HP Print and Scan Doctor

  • Download and run the HP Print and Scan Doctor tool, which can diagnose and fix many printing issues.

6. Inspect Ink Cartridges

  • Ensure the ink cartridges are properly installed and have ink. Sometimes, issues with the cartridges can affect printhead detection.

7. Try a Different Computer

  • If possible, connect the printer to a different computer to see if the issue persists, helping rule out any software issues.

8. Check Connections

  • Ensure all connections (USB or network) are secure and functioning properly.

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
