Bob can’t thank you enough for all the videos you have uploaded. I have currently replaced the ink cartridges- all worked except for the magenta couldn’t be read by the machine- so i went and ordered a new one - all worked then replaced the printheads - then later the ink cartridges failed but the new magenta ink seemed to work alone ! I tried to place the older one but still three cartridges have now failed Do i try to replug the ink station ? I had an error code of 79:04 before all this happened.

Hi Bob, I have a problem with cyan ink. It’s new and it’s a good date until 2022, but when I replaced it it tells me it’s missing (Hp 800) Can you give me some advice on what it might be. Thank you

Bob I love how easy you make all this look not tried it out myself just happened to find your channel on a different matter, I appear to be getting what seem to be dried ink splats little dots or round balls on my prints after it has passed the carriage, I've tried troubleshooting cleaning the printer heads via the system not manual as my latch is broke and I want it to be a last resort before taking a look at the printer heads, any advice what it could be or are my guesses correct already and ill have to have a look at the printer heads (at the moment I have a piece of plastic holding the little purple latch in place hence why I don't want to move it )

Hi Bob, I would like to ask you which can be the reasons and signs of the ink tube system to failure?. Thanks

@LPSshowsyouhow 5 жыл бұрын

The reason for failure is check valves that get worn out. The check valve where the printhead plugs into the tube system is designed to keep ink from leaking out, but the valve spring weakens over time, making it easier for the atmosphere to push its way into the lines when barometric pressure exceeds the standing pressure of the ink delivery system. Then the air gets into the printhead, and kills the printhead.

Hi, since yesterday my HP Designjet 500 displays the Message "Ink cartridge expires in 10 days" (the Magenta Cartridge), but the cartridge/ink is more than half full. He never did that before with any of the cartridges. I read in the Internet if the 10 days are over, the printer won't let you print anymore until you change the cartridge. Is that true? If yes, are there any workarounds to use the cartridge until it's empty? I thought maybe i can somehow reset or change the internal system-time or date in the printer itself to tell him (for example) it's December 2021 an not 2022... Or maybe you have another trick and can tell me how to avoid throwing away a more than half full cartridge? Thank you P.S. I learned a lot about my DJ500 and repaired some things in the past with the help of your videos - so thanks a lot for your work, best regards from Germany!

Hi Bob, thanks for the great video. I left a request on the LPS website last week that went unanswered, so I try my luck here: I have a Designjet 500PS 24", will the C7769-60381 Designjet 500 / 800 24" Ink Tubes Kit fit this one? (Is the 500 and 500PS similar in terms of the ink station/tubes?) And do you ship to Europe? I also need to upgrade the RAM on my plotter, is this a complicated issue? Kind regards, Havard G. Hagen, Norway

Hello. The tube systems work on the PS and non-PS versions equally well. The Designjet 500PS can be upgraded to 128mb with www.lpscomputer.com/collections/designjet-500-800-parts-page/products/c2388a-designjet-500-800-memory-128mb . Yes, we ship to Europe.

Could you help me? It said my magenta print head was clogged and needed to be changed so I purchased a remanufactured one and installed it. Once I did that it said the remaining three needed to be changed so I went and purchased a full kit. Now it is saying only 1 the Cyan needs to be changed. Before I buy an expensive Cyan alone (because I know they are a lot by themselves) could it be saying its a faulty print head because I haven't actually put the ink in I bought? This machine had been sitting for like 3 years and no one used it so I don't even think there is ink in there or if it is its probably bad. I did buy ink. So could the problem be I need to install the ink first? Thank you in advance!

This may be a signal issue. I'd start by cleaning the contacts on the trailing cable connectors. Pull the trailing cable connectors out of the carriage PCA, and carefully clean the contacts with a pencil eraser or mild abrasive. Plug the cables back in and see if the symptom changes or disappears.

HELLO BOB CAN WE CHANGE CONNECTOR OF INK TUBE SYSTEM THAT IS CONNECTED TO THE PRINTHEAD?? I DONT KNOW THE NAME, THE SILICON TYPE , VALVE TYPE ITEM. CAN WE CHANGE THAT???

@LPSshowsyouhow 5 жыл бұрын

Hello. The part is called the print head port. It usually breaks at the elbow that connects to the tube. You can replace that part if you get another bad tube system and remove the part from that. The hard part is getting the elbow barb out without breaking it. The old one can be drilled out with a small bit. Probably time for a new tube system.

If you're talking about the purple latch on the ink tube system, you have to remove the screw, unclip the 5 tabs on the grey molding, and displace it enough to slip the latch into place from the underside.

It sounds like the nozzles in the printheads have dried out. I recommend purging the ink tube system with a priming tool, and then replace the printheads.
