Einleitung

The print head of the HP Envy 5660 is the piece that puts the ink onto the paper inserted into the printer. This guide will go over the replacement of the print head.

  1. yrB6JmJdqXRk4bgO

    • Open the printer so that the underside of the scanner is showing.

  2. OFAaTmQSHEr6ecaA

    • Unscrew the black 11.5 mm screw closest to the front right corner using a T10 screw bit.

  3. CtxY2FEautJI5h13

    • Remove right side of the printer using a plastic opening tool or metal spudger.

    This is the wrong side of the printer. This grants access to a PCB and ribbon cables.

    • Remove spring from the side of the print head rail using a metal spudger.

    And remove the E clip. Your instructions come up short.

    • Push the metal rail the print head rests on inwards to remove it from its bearings.

    You need to remove the E clip first.

    • Remove the belt from the back of the print head using a metal spudger.

    One needs to remove the print head from the drive gears. These are located under the plastic cover in the background.

    Still zero mention of a ribbon cable.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

I wouldn't recommend this guide to anyone without prior experience as it's non-thorough and missing many steps. Started with a clogged printhead; finished with a torn ribbon cable and a couple other new damages.
