Intensive care for your printer If your printer has streaky or discoloured printouts which cannot be fixed with the printer's own cleaning cycle this kit allows you to clean the head manually by injecting fluid through the head. The fluid dissolves dried ink and purges air from the head and can also be used to revive the capping station sponge. This kits have been developed since 2008 to be fast, effective and safe. The kits contain everything you need, including reusable latex-free nitrile gloves. The fluid is universal between kits so can be used on different printer makes by following our tutorial clips Expression Premium (XP) printers need a specific kit (see chart below). Disclaimer Printer cleaning requires a supply of fresh ink and carries a small risk of damage to the printer. As such, we recommend using cleaning when other methods (such as the inbuilt cleaning function) have already been tried, and when the printer has no functional use unless fixed. Safety notes Eye protection must be worn. Review: Excellent Print-head Cleaner - I'm "House-sitting" at present and found my daughter's Epson printer wouldn't print black at all - even after going through 2 "clean nozzles" cycles and changing the cartridge. Did a Google search and found several products which can be used to clean print-heads, some with nice YouTube videos. The Printhead Hospital Product seemed good and good value. Read some of the desertcart reviews and decided to purchase a Kit. Ordered the Kit late one evening (First Class post), informed it had been dispatched during the next morning and it duly arrived the following morning - excellent service. The Kit is simple and the instructions clear to follow - and on a laminated card in case you spill ink on it! It includes a nice pair of good quality nitrile gloves. I warmed the bottle of solution as suggested. First you insert some blotting paper under the print carriage - warned by other reviewers, I cut a strip and folded it double! Then attached the flexible plastic tube to the 5ml syringe, drew up some warm fluid, removed the print cartridges and slipped the open end of the tube over the black print-head nozzle. At first, the syringe was EXTREMEMY stiff, but I didn't force it, just maintained steady pressure. After about a minute, the pressure eased slightly and I very slowly injected about 1/2ml. Left it to soak for 5 minutes. The next 2ml went in a little more easily, and eased further as I was injecting. As suggested in the instructions, I left it 1hr. The blotting paper was very wet and black by then, so I changed it. A further 2ml of warmed fluid then went in very easily. For good measure I put about 1ml through each of the 3 colour nozzles too. Then everything back together - DON'T FORGET TO REMOVE THE BLOTTING PAPER!! - with the brand-new black cartridge and .... PERFECTION!! Beautiful crisp clear black printing. IN SUMMARY : An excellent fix at a fraction of the price of a new printer or a commercial "repair"! Thanks Printhead Hospital and desertcart. Review: Saved Our Printer - Our Epson Stylus SX510W suddenly stopped printing anything black, and generally we only print stuff in black, so that was a problem. Tried all the Troubleshooting stuff, ran various Head Cleans, changed all the cartridges, even changed the black 3 times (may have been lucky, wasn't....), and also the ultimate fix-all method of turning it off and on again a few times. Nothing worked. Then I stumbled on the video tutorial for this product on YouTube, and from there found the kit on desertcart, figured it was worth a shot. The kit arrived quickly, nicely packaged, clear instructions, and of course very useful to have a video for reference too. The only thing I did that was a little different to the instructions, was to tell the printer I was changing the ink in order to get the carriage in the place where the cartridges are accessible. Then I switched it off. I didn't want to risk cutting the power while it was trying to print, and although my method meant that the carriage was locked in place, I could still get the blotting paper under there no problem. Having left the fluid to soak for an hour, the result was excellent. I didn't have a perfect Test Pattern, but it was mostly unbroken, and easily good enough to get us printing again. However, a few weeks later I ran a second Test, and as you can see in the picture, it is in fact now perfectly unbroken (the other pattern is from before we tried the kit for comparison). So, I can't recommend this solution highly enough. Nice and simple, saves an old printer going to landfill, and saves us the money that we thought we were going to have to spend on a new printer. ## Features - Warning:Not suitable for children under 12 years.

I just slide the print head over the absorbent material as per instructions and applied the cleaning solution in the tube provided in situ I think I had to repeat the operation twice, but it certainly broke down the hardened dry ink on the nozzle and has worked well ever since. I hope this helps. I think it is certainly worth a try. **Q: Is this kit suitable for a Epson xpression xp-8500 with 6 cartridges.** A: I do not have experience of this printer. However, it looks like the cartridges just click in like other Epson printers so I would imagine that the cleaning kit will work fine. Don't bother with the included blotting paper. Instead use strips of kitchen roll. I absorbed what was in the foam pad underneath the cartridges before using the liquid and flushed through a couple of times. It can get messy so wear disposable gloves. I still needed to do a couple of Print head cleans and test prints before the fluid was all flushed out of the print heads. **Q: So will this work fie the Epsom DX 6000** A: Yes, I used it over a year ago and my printer is still printing strong. It works. **Q: Can this kit be used with an epson xp352 printer? it is an xp model but not a premium - just an expression home printer** A: Hi Carolyn, the XP352 looks as though the workings are very similar to the XP405 that I used it on so I see no reason why it can't be used. I used folded kitchen paper towel to soak up the ink / liquid rather than the blotting paper supplied. I also used the paper towel to soak up the excess ink from the absorbent foam below the heads before and after use. it's worth syringing the heads several times soaking up the liquid ink each time. I then found that I needed to do several printer head cleans with head test prints in between to ensure nozzles are unblocked and fully primed. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Print-head Cleaner *by D***N on 15 May 2013* I'm "House-sitting" at present and found my daughter's Epson printer wouldn't print black at all - even after going through 2 "clean nozzles" cycles and changing the cartridge.

Repeated head cleaning did not improve matters. I chose this kit a tad reluctantly given that the listing warned that irreparable damage can be caused to the printer in 0.01% of cases..... Anyway, it was a proper head clean or a new printer so I went ahead with the purchase. The first confusion was the differences in the instructions in the listing, those supplied with the kit (totally inadequate) and the excellent Google video tutorial. I chose to use the video method and, as suggested, 'unlocked' the print heads by unplugging the printer during a head cleaning cycle. I initially cleaned all 4 heads with the suggested 5 minutes (wait time between applications of fluid). Afterwards, I installed new cartridges and did a couple of head cleaning cycles. While things had improved, there were still some dropouts. So, I did it all again but with a 20 minute wait time. Alas, the printer then didn't recognise the cartridges at all! After powering off the printer and reinstalling the cartridges, everything burst into life and its like having a new printer! So, despite a few trials, the kit did work which makes it good value. However, patience is required. To be fair, everything you need is in the kit and there is sufficient fluid and blotting paper to allow multiple uses. The video did suggest using kitchen roll rather than the blotting paper. However, it is tricky getting sufficient kitchen roll positioned under the heads. Instead, I used 2 strips of the blotting paper. I used one initially then replaced it just before the second application of fluid. Despite my simultaneous cleaning of all 4 heads, this did the trick without undue mess. In the end, use of the kit is certainly cheaper and easier than getting and installing a new printer!
