1. After receiving the nozzle purchased from our store, please don't use the needle to inject water to check whether the nozzle is blocked!!! Don't do that, very important. This is a very redundant and dangerous practice:
First of all, once the print head gets water, if not blow dry before installation. Either the motherboard is burned, or the print head is burned. They are all shipped after rigorous inspection and testing, and filled with protective fluid. If water is injected into the print head with a needle, not only the protective liquid in the print head will be washed away, but also due to the excessive pressure of the hand. It is easy to cause the print head to be blocked and the ink will not come out;
2. The head of the nozzle is very fragile and must not be bumped. It must be protected. Its surface is a block of aluminum with a crystal oscillator and very small ink tubes coated on the inside. After being touched, it will be dented, deformed, or even broken, causing the nozzle to be scrapped;
3. Be careful when installing the nozzle. Be sure to cut off the power first and assemble it in correct place. After installation, gently push the trolley to move left and right by hand to check whether it is smooth. Do not turn on the power after installation, because if the nose is not in place, it is easy to damage the nose when the car moves. Humans have strong sense of hand and can be freely retracted and controlled;
4. When inserting the print head cable, do not have any ink on it. And make sure that it is in good contact with the socket, and do not touch the pins, otherwise the print head will be short-circuited and burned;
5. The steel shaft should also be clean and smooth. Can be wiped with a paper towel dipped in some lubricating oil. Do not add oil directly to the shaft. Excess oil can flow to the nozzle and cause damage;
6. After check the machinery and circuit, and sure they are correct. The ink way needs to be checked. 1). Check whether the ink level of the ink cartridge is sufficient; 2)

🔧 Troubleshooting & Installation Precautions
Please read carefully before purchasing or installing a new printhead. Proper handling can prevent damage to your printer and extend the life of your printhead.

➡ The issue may come from the printer frame or mainboard.
✅ Please fix any error codes or system issues before replacing the printhead.
❗ 2. Printer Does Not Detect Cartridges

NOTICE:
If you print a test page and notice some lines are missing, don't worry. This could be due to air entering the print head pipe during transportation, or there might be air trapped in the ink cartridges or the Continuous Ink System (CIS).
If you're using a CIS (Continuous Ink System), please ensure it's positioned higher than the printer by at least 2cm. You may observe ink leaking into the ink cartridges, followed by the print head entering standby mode. After 2 minutes, adjust the CIS to the same level as the printer, attempt to clean the print head, and you should see an improvement in the test page with some lines appearing. If you require high-quality printing immediately, continue cleaning. If the printing quality is acceptable, keep the printer powered on and in standby mode. After 24 hours, the quality should improve. As you continue printing, the quality will gradually improve even further.
If you're using ink cartridges, please power on the printer and keep it in standby mode. After 24 hours, try executing the print head cleaning function. Standby for 30 minutes, clean the print head, standby for another 30 minutes, clean the print head again, and repeat this process. You'll notice the printing quality improving with each cycle.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to message me.
