Why choose the genuine HP 727 printhead
Genuine HP 727 printhead (B3P06A): it fires the HP 727 ink onto the media; a genuine printhead guarantees the alignment, drop size and lifetime HP designed. Rated for several sets of cartridges; replace when the plotter asks or when lines are still missing after cleaning.
Matching inks
Use with HP 727 inks: B3P22A (black), B3P23A (black), C1Q12A (black), F9J79A (black), B3P19A (cyan), F9J76A (cyan), B3P24A (gray), F9J80A (gray). The printhead is replaced without tools; the plotter aligns it automatically.

The series listed include all their variants (24, 36 or 44 inch, PostScript, multifunction); check the HP number of your current cartridges on the plotter's display.
Lifetime
Lifetime given by the printer's counter.
Installation and maintenance
Replacement guided by the plotter menu (Ink > Replace printheads): the carriage moves into position, unlock the cover, lift the old printhead out by its handle, remove the protective caps from the new one and clip it in; the plotter runs the automatic alignment. Do not touch contacts or nozzles.
Use and tips
A printhead outlasts several sets of cartridges; replace it when the plotter says so (status message or diagnostic report) or when lines are still missing after two cleanings.
Keep the printhead sealed in its packaging until installation; do not touch nozzles or contacts. After replacement, let the plotter finish alignment and color calibration.
