Clogged IPH Ink Cartridge Recovery Procedure

HP Inkjet Printer

Title: Clogged Ink Cartridge Recovery (HP, Canon, Lexmark & Dell Integrated Cartridges)

Description: To help recover a severely clogged HP, Canon, Lexmark or Dell integrated ink cartridge that fails to print

or is believed to have suffered prolonged cartridge printhead drying, perform the following procedure:

NOTE: This procedure assumes that the integrated ink cartridge has an adequate amount of ink inside and that the

internal cartridge foam has not completely hardened due to cartridge age or prolonged exposure to the

environment. This procedure is most effective on tri-color integrated ink cartridge recovery (i.e. dye-based inks).

To begin, obtain a flat bottomed container and water. Distilled or de-ionized water is suggested to prevent ink

contamination. Heat water until hot and carefully pour into container.

Immerse the bottom portion of the ink cartridge into the hot water for approximately 5 minutes. The hot water

will help loosen up the dried ink which has formed inside the cartridge nozzle plate holes. Using a towel, gently

blot nozzle plate to see if ink appears – this is commonly referred to as “stamping”. For color cartridges, all 3 color

bands should be vibrant and solid. If not, repeat the cleaning process again until ink is visible on towel during

cartridge blotting. Once recovered, completely dry the outside of ink cartridge with a towel. Re-install cartridge

into the printer and re-test.
