The printhead holds the ink cartridges and is responsible for the motions that actually print documents onto paper. If you receive error messages stating that the printhead is missing or failed, use this guide to replace it. You will need a T9 Torx screwdriver for all of the screws in this guide.

This printhead is normally user replaceable.
No screwdrivers are required.
This video is for an 8600, but the process is the same.
I used these instructions to repair the guide ribbon for the print head. It had come off after a sheet of high tack labels got jammed in the printer. Just saved myself from having to buy a new printer! Thanks!!!
12 steps not necessary. Just open the front (like changing ink) and lift the grey lever referenced in step 12, then remove the head from the carriage.
Correct. So easy.

BWAARONJ, I did exactly what you suggested in my 8625 three times! Now my printer is in pieces and parts, and I cannot get the printhead to release from the right side of the housing. I was very meticulous in making an effort to correct this problem, but, alas, it appears I will have to get a new printer!
