How to Clean Printhead Canon Pixma ix6840
In this video, I will show you how to clean the printhead on a Canon Pixma ix6840 printer. The printhead is the part of the printer that is responsible for depositing ink onto the paper. If the printhead is dirty, it can cause print quality problems, such as faded or blurry prints.
I will show you how to clean the printhead using the printer's built-in cleaning function. I will also give you some tips for preventing the printhead from getting dirty in the future.

I had just commented on how good this printer has been I have printed hundreds of high quality images in large format and after working flawlessly for 6 plus years, I have come to this. If I can't fix it I plan to buy another I believe for what I do, this is best printer ever made. Thank you for sharing this information.

I have the ix6820 printer have not used in about 5 years, head's got clogged black would not print. I found this video followed your cleaning process and it is working better than ever! Thank you so much. I was already pricing new printers, glad I tried this first.

This was an informative video. The only ambiguity is, water or alcohol? I would start with water first.

Thank you so much - good idea to protect the circuit board - I just used Cling Film and tilted the device running it under a hot water stream. Used ordinary tweezers to remove the rubber pieces. Then I blew through a straw - big one like you get for bubble tea - to clean the head. Put the rubber bits back - the ridges go down and one end is narrower than the other - with tweezers - that was the hardest bit but not hard - just fiddly. I've printed 4 pages now - hopefully it is good. Thank you very much indeed.

Watched 12 minutes of videos, that saved my loads of time. Cleaned the head, everything done as video was showing. Wish video had some voice instruction as well, or caption. In absent of these two, I struggle to fit those rubber. 12 minutes of the video, another 12 minutes of cleaning, then many hours trying to fit this back what it took me and frustrated me. Your comments with instruction saved many hours more. Thank you.

Thanks for this. I've been getting smudges recently. I took out the print head and found a very ink soaked piece of paper under it. That had been causing the smudging. I have no idea when it tore off but thank you. It's working again 🙂👍

Great video! I have the same printer but, the blue button below the two white button bars is already pressed in so I cannot set it up for wireless printing. Any idea how to get that blue button to pop back out? The manual is no help. I tried disconnecting it. Didn't help.

I have an ix6820, which appears to have the same details as the 6840. I would like to know which cleaning kit was used in this video, or if the author sells the hit he's using. I search for cleaning kits on eBay and I'm bewildered by all the kits available. Typically, I'm finding kits that are available for multiple brands, including Canon, but when I look at the items in the kit, I'm not always clear as to how they would work with my particular model. Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated, since my printer needs cleaning bad.

Use alcohol, do not use water (unless it is distilled water) because tap water will leave residues in ink passages.

@tonytfuntek3262 3 жыл бұрын

Sometimes the ink can dry in the head......try soaking it overnight with distilled water. If it still has issues add a few drops of ammonia, but remember to flush it out with distilled water and let it dry before installing it back into the printer. Also make sure the contacts are clean. There is always a possibly that the head may have burned out. Good Luck.
