If ink has been pulled through the head, either you can see it in the caps or the clear "Y" joints on the pump lines, and it is sill not printing 90% of the time it is a cable issue. You may have dislodged one while changing the damper.

If the cables are fine, did you turn off the power and remove the power cord before changing anything? ink on a powered surface of the head, or still wet ink when power is restored will fry the fuse(s) on the main board.

No i did not turn off the power when changing the damper check the fuces they looked fine, and no ink on the board.
question about the cables does the top right go to yellow andthe top left to cyan ??

Did you precharge the dampers with ink before replacing them? Did you check the fuses with an ohms meter for continuity? A blown fuse can look fine to the naked eye.
