    Good explanation. And if you want to unlock the print head (and cartridges) from its position here is the tip. Turn on the printer and while it is in the middle of the print head cycle, remove the power cable and this will keep the print head unlocked, you can then freely move the print head with your hand.

  • @kimivey285
    @kimivey285 3 роки тому +16

    I have an EpsoN WF 7720. You may know this by now, but when you switch over to sublimation ink, the printer won’t read the levels. So they may show full and they really aren’t. So you just have to check periodically on your own. Don’t rely on the ink levels. They aren’t accurate. I got this information from Angelo Bonaparte from Cosmos Ink. Hope that helps. Love your channel. You’re so personable and relatable. God bless! 💜

    Sis...thanks for sharing. You inspire me to one day do the same. When you had the mishap, it did something to me. It helped to make me feel comfortable as a veteran to make mistakes. I feel that the printer deliberately messes up when it asks if we want to continue using the ink.

    this happen to me yesterday with my ecotank et15000. I wasted 4 hours frustrated. To find out that the problem wasn’t the printer. The issue was the sillouhette software everytime an update happens. It glitches the print colors. Also instead of print head cleaning, purge a epson file it will clean lines without you having to then get a maintenance tank.
