Come liberare una testina di stampa Epson ET-2760

Difficoltà

Moderato

Passi

Tempo Necessario

30 - 45 minuti

Introduzione

Se la tua stampante Epson ET-2760 non stampa linee continue e fa fatica a stampare un'immagine intera a colori, usa questa procedura per pulire gli ugelli manualmente.

La testina di stampa fornisce e trasferisce l'inchiostro sulla carta nella forma corretta per ciò che stai stampando, quindi, prima di cominciare, esegui una pulizia delle testine o una pulizia profonda, per assicurarti che il problema vada risolto manualmente. Dopo aver fatto ciò, puoi seguire i passi della guida qui sotto.

Tutti i passi seguenti sono semplici da eseguire e non richiedono nessuna abilità particolare. C'è, però, una possibilità di sporcarsi le mani e i vestiti di inchiostro, quindi non mettere la tua maglietta preferita.

Strumenti

Passo 1

Avvia una stampa, o un controllo testine.
Una volta che la stampa è cominciata, scollega il cavo di alimentazione a metà stampa.

Is there no way to center the print head without unplugging it?

Passo 2

Apri la stampante, poi tira fuori il pezzo di carta mezzo stampato dalla fessura.
Posiziona un pezzo spesso di carta asciugatutto o uno straccio sotto la testina di stampa.

Place a thick paper towel or rag under the printhead?

Assuming the printhead is now freely moveable at this point, DO we first push it to the rightmost docking position THEN place a paper towel? or to the leftmost position as picture indicates?

If you pulled the power cord mid-print, the printhead should move fairly freely. DO NOT FORCE IT.

Place a paper towel under the printhead and slide one edge of the paper towel to an outer edge of the printhead. As you progress through this, you will want to move the printhead to a cleaner part of the paper towel.

Porqué se introduce un papel y se desconecta a mitad de la impresión y luego se casa completo?

Passo 3

Rimuovi l'unica vite con un cacciavite a croce Phillips #0.
Sgancia le due clip di plastica.
Solleva la copertura superiore della testina di stampa.

You also have to unclip that long clear plastic peace of the side. Note were it will need to be reclipped in. It will hang there to the left while you work.

Passo 4

Sgancia le quattro cartucce dell'inchiostro dalla testina di stampa tirando le linguette sulla parte superiore delle cartucce.
Accertati di non scollegare le linee d'inchiostro dalle cartucce. Appoggiale semplicemente a lato della testina.

Are the cartridges that are being unclipped supposed to look empty?

Passo 5

Riempi una siringa di soluzione per la pulizia delle testine di stampa e posizionane la punta sopra ai fori lasciati dalle cartucce.

Use the little hose that comes with your printhead cleaning solution.

Donna Hinkley -

Passo 6

Comincia a versare la quantità consigliata dal produttore attraverso ciascun foro e sulla carta asciugatutto.
Se necessario, cambia la carta tra uno scarico e l'altro, per evitare che la soluzione entri nella stampante.

Pull the cleaning solution into the syringe thru the tube. Place other end of the tube securely over the print head.

Donna Hinkley -

where can we get the cleaning solution? (brand name) as well as what size tube?

Lizzy70 -

The recommended kit doesn't come with a tube. What size tube is needed?

Bj Sorensen -

Check Amazon for proper epson kit, many come with tubes and adapters for all printers

Ben Rappleye -

Passo 7

Rimuovi la carta asciugatutto da sotto la testina di stampa.

Takes about 1/2 paper towel per color. Each color took about 3 mil to flush.

Donna Hinkley -

Passo 8

Ricollega tutte le cartucce nella loro posizione originale.
Ricollega i due ganci della copertura delle cartucce sulla testina di stampa.
Riavvita l'unica vite al suo posto con un cacciavite a croce Phillips #0.

Reclipping everything is the hardest part. Be super careful reattaching screw. The holding is fragile.

Donna Hinkley -

Passo 9

Esegui una pulizia automatica per assicurarti che tutti i residui di inchiostro vengano rimossi.

The cleaning solution linked by this article, the seller specifically says "Sorry, this printhead solution cannot be used for Epson ecotank." July 14, 2022.

Thank you for your time and efforts

Richard Goodwin -

Le he dado 3 head cleaning y la misma cantidad de nozzle check y no ha imprimido nada, segui cada paso según la explicación, es que tengo que esperar algún tiempo luego de la limpieza de los cabezales con el Printhead cleaning kit?

How would I clean my rollers or can they be replaced they're leaving Pizza wheel marks I've tried cleaning them

Bev ALCHORN -

The plasic cover of the tubes is cut and off. Does this effect my printer? How do I fix or get a replacement? Thanks in advance!

Y Shane -

What to do if the print is still clogged? Can it be replaced?

Simple but to the point tutorial that detailed every step including the tools and supplies needed. Photos helped tremendously too. Thank you.

Mark DiRollo -

Where do I find out the "manufacturer's recommended amount of solution" per flush?

Stelios Makrinos -

Usually it's 5ml

Casper Hon -

But it seems that ink isn't even getting to my yellow and blue heads. At least, the test print shows no yellow or blue at all.

How can I get at the exit (valves?) on the ink storage tanks to make sure they're clear -- without breaking the printer?

Thanks!

warble58 -

Me too! No yellow or blue coming through.

Tracy -

I sent a colored page to the printer, it gave me all shades of blue, no yellow, black or magenta. A nozzle check, and print head cleaning gave me black & yellow, 5 days later I have black, yellow & magenta. No blue. IF I get power back tomorrow I’ll be manually cleaning the print head.

Same problem with no Yellow or Blue; cleaning did no help. POWER CLEANING once did the trick.. Thank you for the instructions especially the pictures. Printer was just out of warranty (one year warranty) and only a little over 500 printed sheets when it suddenly failed. Must remember to run a full color print at least once a week ro keep from drying out the heads as I was doing mostly B&W. Ken

Ken -

The most important thing to know is what ID dia in inches is required for the hose?

Jami FIT -

No yellow or blue, I’ve flushed the print heads twice. Any suggestions appreciated

Sandra Jo Stevenson (Sandy) -

I did this and then printed out the test sheet a couple times..... Then my printer completely shut down and now won't come back online..... Tried a new power cord.... Nothing. Help!

Cindy Rotermund -

I did the same thing, did yours ever turn back on?

Whitney Sheridan -

Great pictures and general description. I did add some notes to make it easier for future users. I did flush my magenta twice, as that was the clogged color. After back together, I did a pin head test, followed by a pin head clean, then another test and it looks great!

Donna Hinkley -

The guide is great but it seems likely that the author hasn't actually identified a problem with the yellow.

Looking at the pictures it seems there's very little ink in the ink buffer (the white block that replace the cartridges and feed the printhead). Each of those needs to be at least half full with ink otherwise the printhead is likely to be receiving air instead of ink and producing results that look like a clog when the reality is that the buffers aren't primed properly with enough ink to delivery it.

For reference look at the picture in Step 4 and note the difference in buffer ink levels between the black and the yellow. The black is about right, the yellow is almost empty.

Hope that helps for some of you who are reporting that you aren't getting ink through.

Martin Smallridge -

How do you resolve the problem of not enough ink in the ink buffer? Does that mean there's some kind of clog in the line?

Hola mi impresora epson ET-2760 no veía el color magenta y la lleve a un técnico que me le diera mantenimiento, ese problema era el único. A las 3 horas me llamó el técnico y me dijo que la impresora no enciende. Yo le afirmé obviamente que mi equipo lo único que tenia era lo antes dicho y el me afirma que eso es normal, que en el solo le dio mantenimiento y que seguro que el cabezal tiene problemas, pero que el sabe lo que es, que cuando él cambie en la placa lo que se dañó , " si el problema es el cabezal, se vuelve a apagar". Pero cuando lo cambio resulta que ahora enciende perfectamente, pero no le llega corriente al cabezal. Por favor necesito ayuda , que hago ,pues no pienso permitir que me devuelva mi equipo si arreglarlo , pues ese es el sustento de mis hijas y yo le entregué mi impresora con solo el detalle de el magenta. Gracias espero me puedan ayudar .

It's a nice printer but they still have a way to go. I would have never bought this printer if I knew it would do this.
