    I had already purchased a $10 kit from Amazon...bare bones instructions. Thankfully I found The Printer Guy. I was expecting to be left with a black only printer and with knowledge from this video I'm back to four color printing. Many thanks.

    I had a local seller who sold me refilling ink for this kind of cartridge system. Of course, it clogged the printhead....
    I then bought Original quality InkTec ink for HP950 (mine was actually a hp963). I used that brand for about 10 years in the previous hp printer with hp62s. Worked like a charm. I guess, the moral of the story is only buy the highest quality of trusted inks. Can recommend Inktec.
    Can recommend this cleaning solution aswell.

    I followed the instructions printed on the box of this cleaning kit. I let the print head dry completely, and reinstalled the printhead. Now I have an erorr that says "missing or failed printhead." I received an email the day after I received and used the kit. It tells me that I may reach out for additional help via the order details page on Amazon, but I found no help or 'ask a question' options. I'm reaching out for help after using your kit.

    Can I return the remanufactured inks you are recommending if I am unable to get the HP 8600 printer to work? I purchased the print head cleaning kit you recommended and it now accepts my original black HP 950xl cartridge, but it shows an "X" next to the 3 color cartridges as they are almost empty or too old and corroded.

      Depends on how much this plastic film is damaged. You can try to fix small a leak with an elastic adhesive, or you can try to put a new plastic film on top the printhead usinf very sticky film or adhesive as well. I never did this myself, but heard about this problem in other videos.

    I bought your kit and tried it on my HP 8600 because the magenta cartridge ran out of ink but replacing it caused a new error message "There is a problem with or ink system. Turn system off, then on. If problem persists, contact HP." No phone number or web site mentioned. I was hopeful that this would be the fix, but sadly, no so. Do you recommend a dependable printer/scanner/fax that has a legal size flatbed?

    I bought this. First it would have been helpful to show how to fill the syringe without losing the solution due to vacuum pressure. Second, it was not easy to attach the hose to the print nozzle. Luckily I have a pair of craft tweezers that helped to reach into the cavity. The print head is now drying so we'll see if this worked or not.

      Your directions worked well. At first today the printer wouldn't stop "preparing the printer" and wouldn't turn off, so I unplugged the printer for a few minutes. Upon plugging back in, it appeared that all except the last cartridge inserted were "empty", though full or nearly so. The printer started a realignment; when done, I ran a "setup/reports/quality report", and all was well!. Thanks.

    Stop buying HP printers. They are garbage. I have had them for the last 20 years and they are terrible. You cannot use your ink cartridge beyound the expired date. HP programs them to stop working when it expires even though they are still half full. Speaking of half, the cartridges come half full, if that. and they are over $1000 to buy. HP are just raping us with the cost of the ink cartridges. They suck. Never again. Getting an Epson ET.
