HP 20000C unpredictable (revisited)
I took the thing apart and found the Printhead Cleaning Assembly to be
majorly gunked up with what looked like tar. Thoroughly cleaned with warm water and a toothbrush. Soaked cleaning pad in warm water, came out nice and white. This printer isn't very difficult to work on, although a bit fiddly. Apart from the printhead cleaning assembly the rest of it looks like new. I suspect it's a time thing. Printer now works like a dream, smooth, quiet, quick and EXCELLENT print quality. Thanks to Bill T at www.fixyourownprinter.com/forums/inkjet/4271 John Mackesy |

And thank you for informing the group of the fix you found for the
problem. Another one for the notebook for the next time this kind of issue comes up. ;-) Art John wrote: I took the thing apart and found the Printhead Cleaning Assembly to be majorly gunked up with what looked like tar.

Thanks to Bill T at www.fixyourownprinter.com/forums/inkjet/4271 John Mackesy I agree with Arthur, the time we who help out is made worth it by the OP coming back into the newsgroup and telling us if the fix was a success or not. Thanks John for telling us and thanks Arthur for all the help you give everyone here. |
