Did you test the F2 fuse on the main board? It's smaller than the others. Basically, when ink is definitely in the head and none of the colors fire at all, it's almost a certainty it's the fuse. That being said there are rare cases where the head itself is fried but let's hope that isn't it.

thank you for responding and yes we checked f2 also replaced f2 {just because} we think the head is fried ,but we are not certain,we need a head that has any test nozzles firing so we can see if buying a new head is feasable.
