HP 731 DesignJet Printhead for T1700 Series
This HP P2V27A printhead serves HP DesignJet T1700dr 44-in PostScript and T1700 44-in printers. It handles cyan, magenta, yellow, gray, photo black and matte black inks, delivering two colours per head for technical documents on plain paper.
Installation notes and common issues
The printhead slots into the carriage without tools, but the printer must run its alignment routine afterwards. Misalignment shows as banding or colour shift; a clogged nozzle check pattern usually clears with the built-in cleaning cycle.
Compatibility check before ordering
Confirm the printer model matches T1700dr 44-in PostScript (1VD88A#B1K) or T1700 44-in (W6B55A#B1K). Verify the ink set in use is HP Bright Office dye-based for colours and pigment-based for matte black. Ensure the firmware is current so the new head is recognised.
