Printhead status messages

These are the possible printhead status messages:

OK: the printhead is working normally, with no known problems

Missing: there is no printhead present or it is not correctly installed in the printer.

Test printhead separately: you are recommended to test the printheads individually to find the
failing printhead. Remove all the printheads and insert them alone one by one, closing the latch
and the carriage cover after every insertion. The front-panel display indicates the failing one
showing the reseat or replace message.

Reseat: you are recommended to remove the printhead and then reinsert it. If that fails, clean the
electrical connections, see

The front-panel display recommends reseating or replacing a

printhead on page 169

. If that fails, replace the printhead with a new printhead, see

Remove a

printhead on page 118

and

Insert a printhead on page 121

.

Replace: the printhead is failing. Replace the printhead with a working printhead, see

Remove a

printhead on page 118

and

Insert a printhead on page 121

.

Replacement incomplete: a printhead replacement process has not completed successfully, re-
launch the replacement process and let it finish completely (it is not needed to change the
printheads).

Remove: the printhead is not a suitable type for use in printing.
