It may not even be on the printhead itself. It could be on the motherboard or somewhere else on the printer. I wish I had more information for you.

Can someone please help me identify which color channel goes where on the Epson P800 printhead? I have these figured out so far.

That's not caused by temperature. I have to agree with Pharmacist here that it looks electrical. Look at how perfect the nozzle check is, the cyan doesn't look like a clog. It looks like a fault. With clogs generally you can see the progression happen and go away as you run the head cleaning...

I was in a jam for a Light Cyan to restore an Epson 3880 printer and ordered one of the cartridges from them. The quality of their ink and customer service is atrocious. They never informed me that the ink cartridge was on a 2 WEEK minimum backorder. I had to reach out asking if my order has...

Thank god these cartridges are larger than my other Epsons. Doing that procedure almost 10x in a row could get tedious. But it's well worth it for the reduced cost and print quality. Plus it looks like I already have my set of ink cartridges ready for modding at home. Money saved there as well...

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't envious of your right to repair laws in EU. Especially in this case! I saw that Precision Colors recommended the chipless solutions with their cartridges. I would much rather be using genuine cartridges than aftermarket. Is there a guide to modifying genuine p800...

I'm about to be using a P800 and would like to get the most out of my prints by using precision colors chipless kit. Has anyone used it here? If so, how did you like it? And how easy was working with the firmware? It looks too easy to be true in my opinion. Thanks in advance.

I just looked them up and they should work perfectly! I'm sending a DM now :)

I have a unusual art project that I'm starting where I'll need a used Epson printhead that will still flow liquid through. Preferably one that has the male ended nozzles as it will be easier for me to work with than Canons flat pad setup where the ink cartridges rest. The only printheads I have...

Thank you so much for letting me know that! I had no idea the ribbon cables were so fragile for Epson. The ribbon cables looked decent. They were never removed before, I could confirm that. I have a couple 10 fuses coming to see if I can swap out the F1 part of the mainboard. We'll see! I'll be...

Lately I've been trying to make sure the printheads going back in are nice and dry before installing. And remembering to put the same ink cartridges back in before it was powered off. I ran into a unique scenario today and was wondering if anyone could tell me what happened. I received a mint...

I've noticed a handful of sellers selling printheads with white chipboards. While the one I have that's genuine is the standard green. I've read that white boards are uncoded/decoded/universal and are cheap chinese knock offs. Is it true for all of them?

This is exactly what I was going to suggest. Small Avery labels would be an efficient way to add information without worrying about smearing or drying.

I was worried about that becoming evident in the prints. Printing grayscale without any photo magenta flow produces results that are still very much workable as grayscale. Worst case scenario, I'm running this head for grayscale prints until something else happens to it.
