How to Perform a Epson Nozzle Check? & How to Manually Clean a Epson Printhead?

Hi! Nice to see you again, my friends. Today, let's talk about how to clean epson nozzles. No matter if you use branded, compatible or reused cartridges, there is a chance of the ink drying out and clogging the nozzle. This can cause further problems if not addressed properly and could even cause your printer to break down. However, this can be solved by cleaning the printhead.

How to perform a Epson Nozzle check
You can perform a nozzle check either from your printer’s control panel on the machine, or via your computers utility settings.

Via the printer’s control panel:
1. You’ll need to locate the maintenance screen – this is usually through the setup page via the printer’s home button.
2. Select Print Head Nozzle Check and make sure you have paper in the loading tray.
3. The printer will print a CMYK colour chart made up of lines. If these lines are blotchy, with gaps, you’ll need to clean the printhead.

Via a computers utility settings:
1. Locate and open the printer utility. This can usually be found through System Preferences, or Settings, via the task menu.
2. Once you’ve opened Printers & Scanners, select your printer and open the Printer Utility.
3. Select Nozzle Check and see if the printout is clean with no gaps or blotches in the lined colour chart. If the printout is not precise, you’ll need to clean the printhead.

How to manually clean a Epson printhead
To successfully clean a print head manually you’ll need some basic supplies. Gather a bottle of water and a lint-free cloth or a paper towel.

1. Make sure the printer is off and unplugged to prevent damage to the device and yourself.
2. Open the printer, locate the cartridges and remove these.
3. Remove the tray the cartridges sit in – this is the printhead unit. It will have several holes in the bottom.
4. Some printer models, such as a HP, will have the printhead on the cartridge, if this is the case, it won’t have a tray to clean. So, move onto step 5 and 6.

5. Lightly dampen the cloth with water.
6. Gently brush this over the foil, electrical contact area with the damp cloth until no new ink shows up on the cloth. Remove all dried ink debris from the printhead contacts, edge and ramps. Make sure you clean the electrical contacts inside the printer as well.
7. If you’ve removed the print head unit, soak in a bowl of shallow water for around five minutes. This will loosen any dried ink. Dab the print head unit on a paper towel to remove any ink and moisture. Make sure it is completely dry before inserting back into the printer.
8. After everything is cleaned and back in place, perform a nozzle check to see the quality of the printing.
