Great simple cleaning option
Needed to restore my Epson WF-7620 printer and I got this to do it. The directions are pretty good except of course for the translation issues when companies refuse to use a human to proof read their materials they send to customers.First note: Place your existing cartridges on something that can contain ink spills because they will often leak.I would suggest the following adjustments. In my case I used facial tissue folded over and over until it just fit under the print head when sliding the head over it - do this in 2 parts - one for the left half and one for the right half. That way when you go to replace it, you can slide the head over an existing tissue and not leak anything anywhere while you replace the other. I went through about 3 sets each round of cleaning.The other thing I found useful is a pair of hemostats. I used them to hold the end of the tubing and to push it over the ink input nozzles because sometimes the nozzles are in too tight of a space for my man hands (I'm 6'2). While I do not have snausage fingers, they are not as delicate possibly as the people who mader these devices over in China. The included vinyl glove is only useful if you have hemostats because of the spaces involved and required pressure to get the vinyl over the nozzle, etc. etc.Kit seems to work well with tissues coming out soaked in ink. I let it sit for at least an hour between cleanings.I've done two complete cleaning rounds and have plenty left to do probably 10 more rounds of all 4 nozzles.BOTTOM LINE: Great affordable DIY solution similar to the rest at an often better price. A Great option to restore a good printer instead of replacing it for only a few dollars. Reuse and recycle at home and save money and the planet?Reviewed:CoYlBod Printhead Cleaning kit Compatible for Epson WF-7520 WF-7510 WF-7010 WF-2650 WF-2630 WF-2660 WF-2760 WF-2750 WF-3620 WF-3720 WF-3540 WF-3530 WF-3520 XP-340 XP-440 XP-446 Printer Nozzle Cleaner

If at first you don't succeed?
I painstakingly followed the directions of heating the solution even using a meat thermometer to get the exact temp. One thing, don't do this inside. It is messy. The results were that the printer was better but apparently not 100%. The only jet in question was black and it was 99% blocked and now only about 50%. It's good enough for me right now so I may be performing the procedure again later. It's not really that hard it's just messy. It's not even that messy if you use gloves and definitely put something in the printer via instructions to sop up the mess. I added a star to my review because after several months of limited printing, the quality improved. I'm not sure why but in the interest of fairness, I have to consider that this product probably deserves some credit. That and I really think that the more an individual repeats the cleaning process, the better the results will be.

IT WORKED!
I purchase this in August 2020, to try and unclog an Epson WF-7520. I had tried the cleaning cycle a number of times but a couple of the colors just weren't clear and one was completely gone. Since we had another printer, I put it aside and figured "I'd get to it" in a week or two.Two years later, I really wanted to use that printer again so I went looking for the cleaner but, alas, couldn't find it . . .so I bought another brand and, once again, "didn't get to it."I FINALLY decided to clean it last week but, of course, couldn't find the new cleaner either BUT found this, pretty much right where it was supposed to be, and went ahead with the cleaning process. I couldn't find the instructions that came with it -- it drop out of the box when I took everything out, I discovered after I was finished -- so I didn't do things like heat it up, or measure carefully, or any of that stuff. I did use two layers of cut-to-size blotting paper under the heads AND had paper towels (and gloves) ready just in case. So I pulled some fluid into the syringe, forced it through the clogged heads, and after a little while tried to print. It wasn't really any better. I then remember seeing online that your supposed to run the epson head cleaning cycle after you clean it. I put a little more cleaner in the heads, let it sit for a few minutes, and ran the cleaning cycle. All inks printed and the quality is GREAT again.So, after almost three years of sitting around, and not following directions, this stuff worked!Excellent!

Simple to clean BUT hard to then make it print!! (Epson WF-2750)
My initial review was 1 star and VERY frustrating. See the below original review!After I suctioned out the cleaning fluid, I ran several "Clean Printer Nozzle" cycles and it started to print, although raggedly. I put a very colorful printed pic on the scanner glass and told the printer to copy it and is seems all the nozzles finally got flushed of cleaning solution and got enough ink to print. The printer is now producing good print.Only put it at 3 stars as the directions were NOT good enough!!!OLD REVIEW:Short review:Had a partly clogged black nozzle on Epson WF-2750; after following the instructions, my printer will not print anything whatsoever.Longer review:Followed the directions to clear the black ink nozzle. After that, as directed, ran the print nozzle clean cycle and then the print test pattern routine. Nothing at all printed. Repeated the clean/print cycle several times...saw a tiny bit of blue, but that was it. Even tried to print an entire page of a color photo...almost nothing but some faint blue.Went back to the directions; they say if that happens to pump ink thru the nozzles! Since I use cartridges', I don't happen to keep ink around. They say in that case to try to suction out the cleaning solution...tried that...same exact result.I've run maybe 10 cleaning cycles and the printer prints nothing except a slight amount of blue.MY PRINTER IS NOW OFFICIALLY TRASH!!!!!
