| If your HP C309g has a clogged printhead, this guide will help potentially resolve the problem and get the printer working again without another $80 printhead to fix the problem when you can fix it with materials you have at home. The steps to clear the printhead can also be used interchangeably with other semi permanent printhead printers. While the cleaning steps will easily carry over, you can't carry the disassembly steps and printhead bypass over. These are specific to the HP C309g. Your best bet for other brands of printer is to look online for the procedure on how to remove the printhead. For other HP 564 series printers, the steps should interchange, but at the same time you should double check. | | | '''HP Photosmart Premium ePrint C310a/C309n owners: You can carry both the disassembly and cleaning instructions over, but I have not verified the initialization bypass on a ePrint ready model yet.
