Buy Canon i9900 Printhead PN QY6-0055-000

Customer Ratings:

This Canon print head ordered through Amazon was delivered by the vendor Ziptech the day after my order was placed. Eager to get my printer working again I installed the new head and tried to print something but was surprised when nothing printed. Perhaps a little priming is in order, I thought, so I went through the print head cleaning ritual and was then able to print a test page but only some of the colors printed. I put it through a couple of deep cleaning cycles but got no improvement. I requested authorization to return the head for a refund. I got a text message from Ziptech advising me that in order to get a new print head to work it had to be put through two cleanings. I replied that I had done that and would be willing to try it again but two of the ink cartridges were depleted. Ziptech sent me the two inks I needed and I tried more cleanings. Ziptech advised that the problem might be the printer itself. I took it in to an authorized repair service and was informed that I probably needed a new logic board. Ziptech called the service man suggesting he check the pump assembly. After a thorough cleaning of the pump assembly the new print head started to satisfactorily print all colors but photo cyan. When the new head was replaced by my original head all colors printed perfectly. Bottom line? The print head ordered through Amazon is defective.

Although a little pricey to keep my printer working, it is all good now. It powers up with a green light, not the flashing amber. It saved me having to throw away my almost full cartridges, and find a way to sell my extras. Should last for quite awhile now.

Easy all the way: ordering, shipment, installation. I suspect my old Canon i9900 printer is now good for another couple of more years.

It works fine. Very expensive but no choice. I am happy with it. I hope it does not short like the original print head.

I was initially puzzled when my i9900 stopped printing and gave an "operator error" message on my PC with the flashing yellow printer light. Hooking it up to a Mac gave the more useful error message concerning the print head. It was expensive to replace, but took only a minute to install, and now everything works fine again.
