Got another 1238 pages out of the old printhead on the HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911gModel: CM750A since I posted in December. Finally got tired of the error messages about a missing or damaged printhead and replaced it. The final tally for the old print head was 62,833 pages in 9 years and 8 months. An average of about 542 pages a month.
Biggest concern I had about replacing the printhead is that the one in the printer, which was original to the printer, was a CM751-80013-A printhead but everything I found online including the manuals said it should need a CR322A printhead. I bought the CR322A printhead in March but I kept putting replacing the old printhead off because of the numbers mismatch. Glad to say the new printhead is working well. Hopefully the printer lasts long enough to get another 60,000 pages through it…
Literally just came back on. So just about 7 hours without power. Now got to hope there is not a boomerang outage because of everything that was still on in the neighborhood coming back online at the same moment.
Posting to see if there is going to be a pattern. I had to unplug Spectrum’s gateway router again today so it would reboot and find the signal. Left it off for about an hour.
And the Spectrum Gateway router lost the signal again about 10 minutes ago. Looks like it is down to a service call now.
For now the unplug for 20 to 30 minutes routine is where everything stands.

Edit:
It was not an equipment failure this time. When I logged into my Spectrum account using my phone there was a message telling me that they were having intermittent issues in my area. It finally cleared up around 5:20 pm Pacific Time or about 15 minutes ago.
This time around the little guys have done a great number hiding my checkbook. I have been looking for the last two weeks for the darn thing and the more I look for it the more the locations I choose to search become less and less rational…
