JoyPrintingPrinthead Cleaner Kit for Inkjet Printers Printer Nozzle Cleaning Kit Compatible for All Print Head of Printers Epson/HP/Canon/Brother/Lexmark/Kodak/Samsung 100ml 10ml Premium Syringe 1PK

I confess I was trepidatious of pulling the print head from my recent purchase of a used Canon Pixma IP8750 printer but the black was completely dead. Had I bought a pig in a poke? So I figured nothing ventured, nothing gained and washed the heads in water. The black came back to life - yeh! But the grey became very patchy and so I bought this 'proper cleaner'.An interesting result! Bear in mind that the ink nozzles are then full of cleaner not ink, but initially I thought all had gone badly...the grey had not improved but vanished altogether! I kept printing and suddenly all jets were printing their test print perfectly. So yes, factor using quite a bit of paper after one of these cleans but the result is perfect. Bear in mind a new print head is a substantial about of money and that is what I would have been looking at without this cleaner.Very impressed. It was easy to use, even if one is not a techy by nature and in value for money saved me buying a new head - so good value. As for functionality. It does exactly what it claims and I was impressed how its syringe mechanisms delivered options to make it work best for one's specific printer.

Very good product cleaned all the blocked nozzle's out on printer.will use again

Excellent product and very good value.The product did exactly what was required but unfortunately the printhead has turned out to be damaged!

I wanted to unblock a canon print head that had been standing for some considerable time. The fluid di help to some degree but I was unable to assemble the various pipes and adapters as needed to apply pressure to the print head jets. The prime clear adapter is too flecible to allow insertin into the feed pipe supplied so could not be used. A pity as the idea seems good.

Have to admit was not sure if it would work but blimey it did my canon mg5450 is no printing i would suggest you have very good kitchen towels & cotton buds but no errors on printer & it prints only thing to note when printing bar codes i think quality might have lowered to clean heads it took 50ml also check out utube for how to do a good job its much better than text

OK, it worked and quite well in the end although it took more than one attempt and a couple of horrified moments. In this case, on an Epson ET-2750 Printer scanner with the cyan nozzle not printing. The instructions are very brief (the Epson instructions are for a cartridge printer and ours are ink tanked), so its worth looking up the many YT videos on how to do the cleaning. 1. Have good kitchen paper to fold into a long strip to sit under the nozzles, know when to unplug the printer to keep the printheads out from its locked position on the right hand side. It's quite easy to feed the folded kitchen paper in the trough under the print heads, although keeping the fold as flat as possible helps, start with the heads on the far left and then once you can secure the edge of the paper on the left side of the heads, then ride the heads right while holding on to the paper, the heads should be fairly free moving once the paper is properly secure. There are two things to remove from the print head, a plastic basket cover (take out a small screw and you can pull it forward a little to clear all the little plastic stubs that keep in in place) then a clear plastic flexible sheet over the ink tubes that is held in place with cut-outs on the clear plastic and hooks on the tube tray). Then remove the tube from the affected nozzle, on the Epson it's worth unclipping the tubes from the tray so you can move them out of the way. Then it's just attaching the accessory tube and syringe with 1-2ml (I used 10 in the end) as from the first cleaning, the Cyan came back for a while then stopped the next morning, then the second attempt the yellow stopped which had me do the Yellow and Cyan, then on the third attempt the cyan came back but magenta and yellow stopped completely. Then I had only cleaned the Yellow and all three colours returned on the last re-assembly of the heads. So far so good, it's all still working after a day or so and I have done a couple of full colour test prints in the meantime to ensure that it's still going. I was reluctant to buy this product having seen so many dead printer reviews but we were ready to buy a new printer if necessary so we thought we'd give it a go. The main thing I took from this is, don't be afraid to persevere, I thought that the printer was done for at least twice in the process. Useful things to have 1. small screwdriver to uncage the ink tubes 2. A good light or headtorch to see what you are doing (everything is black plastic in the printer). 3.Good kitchen paper, including some on the end of a cocktail stick to use as a swab for when ink spills in the machine. 4. Enough patience not to give up.

I have a few streaks, but to be honest, My hand is in plaster and I don't want to get ink on my bandages, so I'll wait to use this kit until I'm out of plaster. when I've cleaned the heads and refilled, I'll update.

The solution dissolved the ink and cleaned the jets OK
