Oh boy,
the last time this happened to me, I lost a rather good HP printer.
I was not able to save it due to the ink drying on important componets.
Sorry I have no constructive info for you, but I do wish you luck.

Simple. Remove the ink and printhead. You can remove printhead by pulling gray latch up and sliding printhead up and out. Clean printhead gunk off using warm running water. Remove any ink gunk on the right side of printer if you see any. Turn printer off and on. See if problem went away. If it did, try putting the cleaned printhead inside printer again. If problem comes back, seems like the issue is with a bad printhead. Below are video instructions on cleaning head manually. The printheads are not same. B210 printhead is not the same with HP 6500, but instructions are same.

The error can be the result of firmware code, printer contacts or the printhead itself failing. There is a firmware update that addresses the "Printhead Error" on your printer. Please follow the steps below on how to successfully update your printer and provide information to the following questions:


1. Open the cover to remove the printhead and tanks (if installed). You may go to http://bit.ly/klw9sJ to have a visual on how to remove the printhead. Note: Carrier will come to the center automatically with this error message as the cover is opened.
- Remove the tanks and place on a table.
- Open printhead latch and remove the printhead.
- Close the printhead latch, close the printer cover, and confirm the error message goes away from op panel.


2. Proceed with the firmware update. Please visit the Lexmark website to download and install the update. Click here to download an important firmware update for your printer. If more than one download is listed for your model, choose the first download in the list. If it is the wrong firmware level, an error message will tell you which firmware level is correct. Please indicate if the update failed or successful.


3. If the firmware update software notifies that you have the latest firmware version, please inspect the printhead for the manufacturing stamp (http://bit.ly/vLvfCx ).
a. Is the stamp on the nozzle plate side?
b. Is the stamp on the contact side?



4. Open cover, open latch, and insert printhead only.


- Firmly push down on printhead then close latch and cover.
- If error message goes away, continue with normal installation steps for cartridges.
- If error message remains, open cover, remove cartridges, open latch, remove printhead, re-install printhead, close latch and install tanks cartridges firmly.


5. Try to print a document again to verify that the problem is fixed.

hi
If this is the firsttime the error has occurred, try turning the printer off. Let it sit turned off for atleast 20 seconds before powering it back on. If powering the printer offand back on clears the error, continue using the printer but watchit to see if any printhead errors return. If your printer continues todisplay a Printhead Error message, make sure it is plugged straight tothe wall and not through a surge device or power strip. Power strips anduninterrupted power supplies can cause a low amperage problem in your printer.This can trigger a printhead error even if the printer has worked on this surgedevice for months.
If theprinter continues to post a 930 Printhead Error, it thinks thewrong printhead unit is installed. If the printer was recentlyserviced, make sure the correct parts were used. This is especially true if theparts replaced were either the printhead unit or the printer's engine/systemboard. It is in one of these two parts that the printer is detecting theproblem. Note: If you are the personrepairing such a printer, please be aware that parts from different,though similar, printer models may not be compatible with this printer.Also make sure to check the laser cable going from the printer's engine boardto the printhead unit, as it reads that signal. If the printer was notrecently serviced before this error occurred and powering the printer off andon does not help, the printhead unit and possibly the laser cable or theengine/system board to this printer may need to be replaced.
If the printer continues topost a 931 Printhead Error, it thinks there is an error in the signalgoing to the laser or the Hsync part of the printhead assembly. If the printer continues topost a 932 Printhead Error, it thinks there is an Hsync error occurringin the printhead assembly. If the printer continues topost a 933 Printhead Error, it thinks there is a failure in either theHsync signal or with the mirror motor unit of the printhead. If the printer continues topost a 934 Printhead Error, it thinks there is a "lock"failure with the mirror motor assembly within the printhead assembly. If the printer continues topost a 935 Printhead Error, it thinks the mirror motor unit within theprinthead unit cannot reach its operating speed.
If powering the printer offand on does not clear any of these errors and it is alreadyconnected directly to the wall, your printer may require service. Itcould have a defective printhead unit or there might be a problem with theengine board or one of the printhead cables. Note:If you are the person repairing such a printer, check all of the cablesgoing from the printer's engine board to the printhead unit for any damage.Also check the continuity across these cables.

An 'Ink System Failure' or '0x... ' error message displays on the printer control panel. The exact text of these error messages varies by printer, but they are usually preceded by the word 'Error .'
