HP Printer Cartridges : How to Clean HP Printer Cartridges

[Bambigirl681]

Worked perfectly!!! I completely refilled my cartridge and it was still printing light gray. Did your trick for 20 seconds and reprinted, now it's dark black!!  Thank you!!!

This definitely helped my ink cartridge print out a few more pages! But unfortunately and confusingly, i think i will have to buy a new ink cartidge - even though i just bought mine a few weeks ago...

[vvta]

[tavitjjj]

I hope that will work on my cartridges

[dalsun622]

THANKS VERY MUCH ...YOU WERE A GREAT HELP...THANKS ONCE AGAIN

[manin817]

thanks ..very easy and convenient method..

[angelfish0443]

Thank you so much!!! I just love "how to" videos. This is the first time I have ever cleaned an HP cartridge (or any cartridge). I simply didn't know, but realize I should have read my user guide years ago to learn that I could do this. However, I didn't go through their steps; instead, I found you. Voila! Printer works great again. I dread to think how much money I've wasted buying new ones everytime the printing started to fade. Thank you once again--you made this so easy!

It’s best to think ahead from as early as possible when preparing these tactics of course– it can be a real nightmare to pick apart a model and add support structures or cut it apart.

[MsNayners24]

This is great info, except he doesn't say how long to leave it in the water. Do you let it dry for a while after dabbing it on the paper, or what.

Man what can i say!

Perfect!!! I use to use prefumes to clean them, and it didn't work that well! but this time it works as if it was new!

Thank you and keep it up

This saved my cartridge from a hammer kick:)) Thanks! It works perfectly! I didn't added the alcohol and it worked without it.

[tom2002a]

This worked great -- thanks. Tip - I took another posters advice and dipped several times then dabbed the area on paper towelafter each dip.

The best way is to heat up some hot water he says? If the water is already hot why would you need to heat it up? ;)

[irulethe70s]

guys! ireally tried this the day i watched this video and it really worked!the circuits did not get any damage....do it a couple of times,if the first time did'nt work out.thumbs up for this guy!!

[phrmaecopia]

is it ok, when the cartridge sink into a

hot water or an alchohol?

i think that liquid will go inside the cartridge..it will difficult to get it out...

and will mix it to the ink...

you know what i mean?

[luis68jmmo]

Si funciona que la limpieza de hp27, 28, 96 y 97 sumergiendolos en agua casi hirviendo por 5 minutos, no solamente una cuarta parte incluso las 4/5 partes, el cuidado que le falta explicar es que se debe cuidar de que no se salga la tinta por los orificios superiores, en este caso se debe sacar el cartucho, esperar a que enfrie y continuar el tratamiento de 5 minutos

[jemsrs]

My printer says error.

And in the HP solution center

it says that the cartridge is incompatible

what should I do?

[gabrielito3500]

Hi, i have a problem with HP 02 with C5180 multifunctional, the pinks no work, why?, what a can do?, the Cartridges are auteresets, can you give some ideas

Thanks

[shailensobhee]

Thanks for the advice. However, when I place the cartridge head over a tissue paper, the latter gets dyed with ink. This means that the cartridge head is not clogged (or at least part of it is not clogged.) Yet, when I print, the papers is plain white. Any suggestions?

[andre83310]

@shailensobhee Dude maybe the circuits are ruined? (unfortunately)
